One day enough if censure debate targets only PM: Government whip
2 Oct 09:56Key points summarised by AI
Government chief whip Wisut Chainaroon asserts that a single day is adequate for the upcoming no-confidence debate if it solely targets the Prime Minister.
Wisut dismisses the Opposition's five-day debate proposal as unrealistic, stating the House Speaker will coordinate with whips to determine the actual duration and allocate speaking time.
He expresses confidence in the Prime Minister's handling of the debate, noting she can refer specific questions to relevant ministers and is not required to be physically present throughout.
Wisut clarifies that former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra is an outsider, barred from the chamber, and cannot be introduced into the debate's discussions.
