The Cabinet does not accept the principles of the People’s Defense Organization Act draft.

Government spokesman reveals that the Cabinet has resolved not to accept the principle of the People's Defense Organization Act draft, aiming to submit the draft to the government. Mr. Jirayu Huangsap, spokesman for the Prime Minister's Office, revealed the draft bill on the organization of the Ministry of Defense, proposed by Mr. Thanadet Phengsuk, Bangkok MP of the Prachachon Party, which the House of Representatives has approved for the Cabinet to consider the draft for 60 days. Mr. Jirayu said that the Cabinet meeting resolved not to accept the principle of the draft of the Defense Ministry Administration Act, which the Cabinet had received for consideration after the parliamentary meeting voted, which will be due within the next few days. The cabinet meeting agreed that since the draft is very detailed and has wide-ranging impacts, and importantly, the Ministry of Defense has also drafted it, the prime minister said that he should talk to the government whip to submit it to the parliament that next we ek the draft of the Ministry of Defense or the government draft will be put together for joint consideration. In particular, the details regarding proportions, whether it is the proportion of the cabinet or the proportion in the Defense Council, are still details that need to be discussed further. In addition, the Ministry of Defense was asked to quickly summarize various opinions, which the cabinet meeting had opinions from various agencies, such as the Ministry of Defense saying that the matter was still unclear. The Defense Council's authority to give important opinions to the Defense Minister could cause the Minister's consideration to lack thoroughness. Including shifting the responsibility to the Minister of Defense alone, it must be done with caution, just like many other agencies that agree that the principles of the draft should not be accepted yet. Therefore, the Ministry of Defense has been assigned to accelerate the calculation of the results of this draft, and to accelerate the submission of t he draft that has been revised to be in line with government policy.-317.-Thai News Agency Source: Thai News Agencyl
