Questions by govt MPs to be given priority during oral Q&A in Parliament, says Speaker

KUALA LUMPUR: Questions from government backbenchers will be given priority during oral question and answer sessions in the Dewan Rakyat, says Speaker Tan Sri Johari Abdul (pic).

Johari said this was due to the number of backbench MPs outnumbering Opposition MPs in the lower House, with the former to be given six out of the 10 first questions during oral question and answer sessions.
