PM: Dewan Negara members exempted from anti-hopping law

The Constitution (Amendment) (No.3) Bill that prohibits MPs from switching parties does not apply to Dewan Negara senators.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob, when tabling the bill for the second reading at the Dewan Negara today, said the matter was agreed upon by the special select committee after taking into consideration several inputs.
