KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 12 — The development of the National Data Bank and its implementation timeline will be key topics of discussion during the oral question and answer session in the Dewan Rakyat today.
According to the Order of Business on the official Parliament website, Datuk Dr Ku Abd Rahman (PN-Kubang Pasu) will query the Digital Minister on the data bank’s development timeline and expected operational date.
He will further inquire about the protocols to be implemented to ensure the system’s data quality, security, privacy, and interoperability.
Meanwhile, Datuk Seri Hasni Mohammad (BN-Simpang Renggam) will ask the Communications Minister regarding measures that would be taken to defend the government’s image, which is purportedly being undermined by media outlets allegedly disparaging leaders and the administration.
Also drawing attention is a question from Chong Chieng Jen (PH-Stampin) to the Finance Minister concerning diesel sales.
He will be asking whether there has been a reduction in diesel sales in Peninsular Malaysia and the amount of savings achieved by the government following the implementation of the diesel subsidy rationalisation since June 2024.
Following the question and answer session, the Dewan Rakyat will resume its committee stage debate on the Supply (Budget) Bill 2026.
The Third Meeting of the Fourth Session of the 15th Parliament is scheduled to run for 35 days, concluding on December 4. — Bernama
