The National Council for Peace and Order( NCPO ), the now-defunct coup-makers, issued orders and announcements, which the government will seek advice from the Council of State, its legal advisory body.
According to Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin, some NCPO orders are still in effect even though they are no longer relevant to the current situation, and some of them are thought to hinder the conduct of government business and people’s daily lives. The authorities will discuss the council on the matter.
The PM instructed ministries and state companies to consider whether it is also important for them to keep any NCPO orders they were given in the past, according to government official Chai Wacharonke on Wednesday.
These purchases may be revoked if they don’t ask the pantry to keep them by October 9, according to Mr. Chai.
When asked how the government may withdraw the NCPO directions, Mr. Chai replied,” The current state is a sovereign entity, so it can immediately reevoke all NCTO orders.”
When asked if a government decision could overturn orders issued in accordance with Section 44 of the interim constitution adopted following the 2014 coup, Mr. Chai replied that any NCPO orders can be revoked as long as no one requests that they remain in effect by October 9.
The part gave former prime minister Prayut Chan o cha, who is currently the head of the NCPO, broad authority to repeal all other rules. The present constitution was amended to include Section 44. The charter’s Area 279 also supports NCPO directives and presentations.
Additionally, it states that like orders may be changed or repealed by either parliamentary legislation, executive orders, or government resolutions.
However, Pheu Thai record MP Noppadon Pattama stated on Facebook that” the state is not a sovereign object.” Thus, one must take into account the significance of any NCPO purchases before they can be revoked.
The cabinet may issue a fresh resolution to reverse an NCPO order if it is equivalent to one. However, if the attempt is equivalent to a law, it must be passed by parliament in order to be changed or repealed,” he wrote.
