Constitutional judges to rule on election bill

By The Nation

 

The Constitutional Court on Wednesday accepted to review a bill concerning the election and a junta order concerning the political party organic law.
 

The National Legislative Assembly early this month filed a petition to the court over the constitutionality of the MP election bill.

The ombudsman sought a court ruling on the constitutionality of junta order No 53/60 which amended two articles of the political party organic law.

 

Parties were requested to submit further explanation on the cases by April 25.

 

Concerns were raised that the review of the bill may delay the election date but Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha earlier vowed that the process would not affect the timetable for the election.

leaving aside the question of intelligence , his constant excuses having aptly demonstrated, his promises contain no value

It probably won't affect their timetable... It might affect the promised date of election, but in their timetable there was never to be an election, hence no affect !!

Course not, the 20 year plan only needs election delays for 20 years !

No surprise, promulgation of the organic laws was always the disclaimer. 

 

Prayut can claim there is a process that must be followed, delay will ensue which will coincide nicely with their 4 year anniversary, and a massive belly flop for their popularity.

 

Better get your lyrics out.

After the 'influencer village' in CM is complete, there shouldn't be a doubt about the outcome.

Interesting how the junta PM can guarantee both the timing and outcome of a decision by the "independent" judiciary.
