Lastly, Datuk Idris Ahmad (PN-Bagan Serai) will inquire if the government will appoint individuals to Tabung Haji based on merit rather than political influence, aligning with a Royal Commission of Inquiry recommendation. The session will conclude with a policy-stage debate on the Supply Bill (Budget 2027) slated for October 12 to 22. The Dewan Rakyat is expected to convene for 37 days until December 8.
