BANGKOK, June 27 (TNA) – The House of Representatives will choose the House Speaker post during the first meeting on July 4, said Pornpith Phetcharoen, Secretary-General of the House of Representatives.

 

She also said that the number of MPs is reduced to 499 from 500 as Move Forward Party list-MP Nateepat Kulsetthasith has been disqualified following the drink-driving conviction.

 

The Minburi Court sent the letter to her office that the case had ended, so Nateepat lost her MP status.
