Parliament sits on 3 July and I have filed two questions for the Minister for Law related to the controversy surrounding the rental of properties on Ridout Road:
Gerald Giam Yean Song (Aljunied GRC): To ask the Minister for Law whether the Government has plans to redevelop more of the land that is currently occupied by black and white colonial bungalows for more productive uses like public housing, industry or commerce.
Gerald Giam Yean Song (Aljunied GRC): To ask the Minister for Law (a) whether the bidding process of black and white bungalows managed by SLA is audited by the AGO annually; (b) if not, in which year was the latest audit conducted; (c) what sampling methodology was used for the latest audit conducted; and (d) whether bids by Government officials, Members of Parliament and related parties are always included as part of this sample.
Other Workers’ Party MPs have also filed questions for the Minister. They can be found on the Order Paper.
There will be four Ministerial Statements delivered, after which MPs may ask for clarifications. These Ministerial Statements will likely be made after Question Time, which ends at 12.30pm on Monday 3 July. The full Parliament proceedings can be watched live on YouTube (search “Parliament Sitting 3 July 2023”).
