In this regard, Mr. Chulaphan Amornwiwat, MP for Chiang Mai, Pheu Thai Party (PA) as the coordinating committee of the opposition party (Whip the opposition) rose up to discuss that. before closing the meeting last night The opposition was not impressed. But today, we wasted time waiting for a quorum for 30 minutes, which the process of considering the budget took a lot of time. and there are many amendments We cannot block members’ privileges to reserve opinions and reserve amendments. must work together to complete the consideration But if this is the case, he is afraid that August 19 may not be considered until the end. Because yesterday (August 17) the review was very slow. If there is a need for a meeting beyond August 19, it may be necessary to work together on holidays. Or it might be August 22nd.
Mr. Chulaphan said that the chairman was asked to give an opportunity to ask more questions in Article 8, which is not an additional discussion. But it’s a legal question. regarding the amendment process and return the budget to the Air Force that they are concerned that the process of enacting a law that has passed the commission level (KMUTT) is correct in accordance with the procedures and laws Because the Air Force’s return is 5% lower than the cabinet resolution stipulated that it must be 10% at least, is it considered to push the burden on the next government to set up a budget to buy your fighter jets or not? What power did you take to approve the budget of 5% and hope that the Cabinet’s resolution gave 5% as you requested because of the wrong procedure? If the House of Representatives approves a 5% reduction and hopes the Cabinet will issue a Cabinet resolution retrospectively If there is a mistake, someone will go to the Constitutional Court under Section 148, the whole bill will fall.
While Mr. Ubonsak Bua Luang Ngam, Lop Buri MPs, the party debated that that we approve the budget According to Article 144 of the Constitution, if the approver has a stake, there will be an offense. The amendment to the Air Force Ask the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. which is also a politician because it must be considered in the Senate process What is the issue of the law, he is afraid that this committee will sue itself. because you are already a singer And he said that this one is not like in the committee. So ask someone who has knowledge to be an accurate lawyer to answer that this law can be used or not.
As for Mr. Niyom Vejkama, a member of the Sakon Nakhon National Assembly, the PAD debated that he was worried that the budget had passed this council. But there are problems with the powers, duties and rights that the opposition submitted to the President of the House of Representatives. to inquire regarding the 8-year term of office of the prime minister, he is afraid that following August 24, there is a problem that the prime minister has no rights and power So how will this budget be used? He was worried regarding whether those who voted through it would be guilty or not. Because it is known that the prime minister has problems with age, power and approval of the budget that will continue to be used because the prime minister’s 8 years will be due on August 24
Mr Supachai explained that last night, August 17, the discussion on this section had already closed. and the Committee has already clarified But when there are additional questions, they can use the right to ask questions. Just take the issue that really bothers you. If you ask since the discussion, then you don’t have to ask once more. In addition, regarding the term of office of Prime Minister for 8 years, we are not the court.
while Mr. Warathep Ratanakorn as Vice Chairman of the Committee Clarifying budget cuts in the Department of Defense related to the purchase of F-35A fighter jets that the budget cuts are lower than the cabinet resolutions set forth in the debt obligations. The facts in the sub-committee have reported that Reduce the whole lot But in the part of the Committee. making it unable to support the army that will have equipment to operate in use and plan accordingly The committee, with a majority of votes, considered that the Cabinet resolution was written in such a manner to enforce all departments. including the Ministry of Defense But that doesn’t mean The enforcement will be binding on the consideration of the Election Commission’s budget in any way, because we separate the power to set the budget that is the duty of the administration. The approval power is the legislative power.
“This matter, at the meeting of the Committee. The large group did not ask whether the consideration was contrary to or inconsistent with the Cabinet’s resolution. Because everyone understands that this is the power to cut down that does not contravene Article 144 of the Constitution. Therefore, the concern that the committee The budget cut will go once morest the cabinet resolution or not. I understand that some committees have already asked the Bureau of Budget. Knowing that there has been a matter of setting the budget, it has been reduced to less than the resolution of the cabinet. which can be done,” Mr. Warathep clarified.
After that, the meeting passed a resolution on Section 8, it turned out that there were 216 votes in favor, 83 votes once morest, 1 vote abstained, 2 votes abstained.

In this case, it is a matter that is not in the duties and powers of the Ombudsman under section 37 (3), but is in the duties and powers of other independent organizations under section 37 (4) of the Organic Act on Inspectors. 2560, therefore, the Ombudsman cannot, by virtue of Section 23 (1), submit the matter together with its opinion to the Constitutional Court for consideration. therefore decided to end the complaint in accordance with Section 37, paragraph two of the Organic Act on Ombudsman B.E. 2560 (2017)
