PAC to discuss Zahid’s proposal to probe Tabung Haji
This comes after the deputy prime minister says the PAC would be more suitable to conduct a follow-up investigation into TH’s management than a new RCI.
The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) is set to convene tomorrow to deliberate on deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's proposal. According to PAC chairperson Mas Ermieyati Samsudin, the committee will deliberate on Zahid's suggestion following its scheduled proceedings in Parliament. Samsudin plans to seek the opinions of all committee members on the matter during the session.
The PAC's meeting is noteworthy as it occurs on the same day as Parliament's proceedings. Zahid posited that the PAC is more suitable for conducting a follow-up investigation into Tabung Haji (TH) management than establishing a new royal commission of inquiry (RCI). The Umno president proposed that the special body scrutinize TH's management from 2017 to the present. Zahid's team asserts that the RCI's findings did not directly implicate any individual.
