MP Calls for Joint Negotiations on Opposition Inquiry Schedule After Walkout

Key summary

Romtham Khanaruk, a government whip from the Pheu Thai Party, criticized the opposition coalition's walkout from the Inter-Party Committee meeting regarding the schedule for the vote of no confidence. He stated that while the opposition has a constitutional right to inquire, the dates and times must be mutually agreed upon. The committee discussed reducing the inquiry period from 5 days to 4 days due to time constraints in late October, but the opposition insisted on their original timeline. Khanaruk emphasized that the government is ready to negotiate in good faith and hopes both sides will retreat a step to find a realistic solution.
