In the subsequent Question and Answer session, Takiyuddin Hassan from PN-Kota Bharu will request an update on the implementation of 17 recommendations aimed at enhancing security controls, screening, and risk management at Kuala Lumpur International Airport and other international entry points across Malaysia. The cross-border haze problem is also expected to be discussed, with Datuk Yusuf Abd Wahab from GPS-Tanjong Manis set to question the Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Minister regarding the steps taken to combat the issue, particularly in Sarawak.

He will also inquire about any diplomatic or legal actions the ministry has undertaken to address the ongoing haze challenge.

Following the Question and Answer session, the Dewan Rakyat will continue with the first reading of the Supply Bill 2027, presented by the Finance Minister, and the second reading of the Sports Development (Amendment) Bill 2026, discussed by the Youth and Sports Minister.
