PUTRAJAYA: The Prime Minister must get the green light from the Cabinet before dissolving Parliament, insists Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

The Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia president said that this was based on an agreement by Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob with Perikatan Nasional before taking over the premiership.

The Perikatan chairman also claimed that the Federal Constitution stated that the Prime Minister must get the agreement of the Cabinet before advising the Yang di Pertuan Agong to dissolve Parliament. “However, I know the majority of the Cabinet, as a number of them are from Perikatan, do not want to hold the elections now.

He also took a swipe at Ismail Sabri for not heading a council on the problems of the people but leaving it to a mere minister.

Cabinet report to pm or the other way around

Actually, no need for consent.

There is no legal requirement for the PM to do so. In fact, its his own prerogative. Not even UMNO President can force the PM to do so
