The Committee of Privileges decided to present its special report in its investigations of the complaint against former Workers’ Party (WP) MP Raeesah Khan last Friday based on the oral evidence it heard on Thursday and Friday, said the Office of the Clerk of Parliament yesterday.
Responding to queries over the committee’s decision to release the special report before it called WP leaders for their testimonies, the Clerk’s Office said the committee will keep Parliament informed of the progress of its investigations “in a timely manner when appropriate” and present its final report in due course. It did not elaborate further.
The Clerk’s Office cited Standing Order 105 (2), which states that the committee may, at any time during its proceedings, make a special report to Parliament on any matter that it may think fit to bring to the notice of Parliament.
It added that special reports had been issued in the past.
