Censure set for Nov 25, 26

The Opposition and government whips have decided to hold a no-confidence debate on November 25-26 and vote on Tuesday the 27th, Opposition Whip Jurin Laksanawisit said yesterday.

Jurin said if the no-confidence debate is not finished by the 26th, the voting day should be postponed till Wednesday November 28.

“The government should not cite the Senate’s general debate against the government to pressure the Opposition to finish the censure motion on the 26th, because the Senate debate can be held on other days,’’ he said.
Jurin reiterated that only ministers who are set to be grilled in the censure motion have the right to answer questions and defend themselves.
