Parliament president Chuan Leekpai has known as a special joint conference of MPs and senators to be kept on Monday, the last chance for congress to review the modification of an election costs that supports the use of the number 500 within calculating party-list chairs.
Isara Seriwattanawut, a Liberal list-MP, said Mister Chuan ordered the meeting to be held on Monday — the deadline by which the bill should be passed.
A joint sitting down on Wednesday, which was supposed to be the last for the bill, collapsed due to a lack of quorum. It had been an attempt to allow the Aug 15 deadline pass without a parliamentary endorsement to block the change towards the way party-list seats are calculated. The initial draft proposed the usage of 100 before the last-minute change in the 2nd reading.
According to legal professionals, if the bill is not really endorsed within the 180-day deadline as necessary by the charter, the original version, sponsored with the cabinet and drew up by the Election Percentage, will be considered approved by parliament.
Mr Isara said if the deadline passes without the bill becoming endorsed due to an insufficient quorum again, MPs will need to explain so what happened to the public.
New Palang Dharma Party leader Ravee Maschamadol, who else favours the use of five hundred, said on Thursday night that parliament includes a responsibility to finish the particular deliberation process.
Dr Ravee said no matter what the outcome of the vote is certainly, he will accept it. However he was adamant he would ask the particular Constitutional Court in order to rule on whether using 100 in order to calculate party-list seats violated the current charter.
Somchai Srisutthiyakorn, a Seri Ruam Thai Celebration member, said he’d petition the Nationwide Anti-Corruption Commission to investigate if there have been any kind of ethical violations within the three collapsed meetings. He said the joint meetings of MPs and senators to deliberate the bill on This summer 27, Aug 3 or more and Wednesday most of collapsed, suggesting a few parliamentarians acted irresponsibly.
