Dream not reached for another year after 'Bhoomtham' decided not to allow it, pointing out that the people had full rights because they paid meeting allowances. Confirmed that he will not send anyone to accept a position in the committee. Today (January 8, 2024) at Parliament, Ms. Sirikanya Tansakul, party list MP, Progressive Party, as budget committee member. Revealed after the meeting of the Special Committee to consider the draft bill (Act) for the annual budget for fiscal year 2024 in the case where the Progressive Party does not send a committee member to hold any position and the meeting resolved not to. Broadcast the meeting live to the public Ms. Sirikanya stated that this is a tradition. Because in the past it took a long time to determine the person who would sit in any position. There have been many rounds of debate. The Forward Party therefore eliminates the problems that we will Do not participate in this matter . So that the meeting has more time to consider and consider. Therefore, I have been doing this since 2021, not accepting any position. Therefore, no committee member from the party has advanced to take on the position of vice president. Secretary or spokesperson As for the proposal to broadcast the meeting live to the public, That was proposed until it was almost voted on, but the president decided not to broadcast the broadcast. Ms. Sirikanya stated that if you follow today's meeting, you will see that many commissioners are starting to have the opinion that we are going too far to ask for this issue every year. that there will be a live meeting and confirming the importance of broadcasting live to the public In order to be aware of the people's tax expenditures of more than 3.48 trillion baht, we would like people to participate in following the progress. I'm not worried that there will be any lawsuits. We think it looks similar to what various agencies have come to explain to Parliament. If you are very worried, you will be careful with your words so as not to be sued later. However We were unable to push this issue successfully for another year. Even though an attempt was made to have a resolution. to save it Because the president used his power This is different from the past times. Where we confirm that the president has authority but the chairman does not use his authority to make decisions, it is considered final. But there are still good things. Because there is still a live broadcast in front of the conference room. The media can broadcast live in front of the conference room. And he allowed it to be done. When asked whether to broadcast live or not? How will people benefit or lose? Ms. Sirikanya said that we will not see in the process what each side is saying. or what did you say You will only see the conclusion. or just a resolution at a meeting Because in truth, the way people talk in meetings can tell many things. What is each person's attitude on each matter? In every meeting, it is the public tax that pays the meeting allowance to us. Therefore, I think that people have full rights. to know what we talked about 'Personally, I think It is a concern about the law. whether there is a privilege protecting or not protecting speech in the House of Representatives or in the meeting room Which I personally consider to be too much concern. The person who speaks is responsible for those words. This is to prevent lawsuits from occurring.' Miss Sirikanya Also revealed that This year, at the budget committee meeting, there was a change in the order of consideration of agencies receiving the budget. Arranged according to section Even if it doesn't go according to what you propose. That is, let the agency that receives the most budget consider it first. But changed to consider each section instead. This is a new style that occurred for the first time this year. It's a new color in meetings. Source: Thai News Agency
