According to Move Forward Party ( MFP ) chief adviser Pita Limjaroenrat, the ruling Pheu Thai Party must fulfill its pledges to improve parliament transparency and efficiency, pass a new political amnesty bill, and move forward with armed forces reforms.
According to Mr. Pita, these commitments were made in a memorandum of understanding ( MoU) signed by the MFP and Pheu Thai before the coalition government was formed.
At a meeting held on Wednesday, the opening day of the fresh legislative session, he made the remarks. They targeted Srettha Thavisin, the case, and other events who had accepted the MoU.
Former Prachachat Party leader Wan Muhamad Noor Matha, the current leader of the House, was chosen for his present position to break the pact between Pheu Thai and the MFP when the eight potential coalition events led by the MFP tried unsuccessfully to form a government last year.
Padipat Suntiphada, who was then an MFP MP for Phitsanulok territory and was being nominated by the group for the House presenter position, was rather made the party’s primary deputy speaker.
In what was thought to be a political maneuver, Mr. Padipat was afterward expelled from the MFP, allowing the party to take the lead in the opposition while keeping his deputy House speaker position.
A member of an opposition group is prohibited by law from having one of its people occupy a House speaker or assistant speaker’s position at the same time.
Additionally, MFP list-member Nutthawut Buaprathum, speaking in his power as the opposition’s key punch, consulted the House meet regarding the possibility of allowing more than two House sessions per month.
Given the high number of bills pending consideration, he claimed repeated meetings were required.
