THE second meeting of the first session of the 19th State Legislative Assembly’s (DUN) will be held next month.
According to a local news portal, Head of State Tun Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud will officiate at the eight-day DUN Sitting from on May 17 to 26 and deliver his speech.
“An official letter signed by DUN secretary Pele Peter Tinggom said all 82 august House members are invited to attend the opening ceremony with their spouses.
“In the letter, he also said the respective elected representatives can submit up to 10 oral questions for the coming sitting in line with the DUN Standing Order 19 and 24. The written notice containing the questions must reach the DUN secretary by April 29,” the portal said today.
For the record, the last DUN Sitting was held from Feb 14 to 16.
However, it did not begin with the Head of State’s address due to an earlier notification by the state government which suspended Standing Order 1 – the address of the TYT.
