PAS wants the Pakatan Harapan government to explain why its ministers have not had their positions gazetted one year after taking over Putrajaya.
If they fail to give a satisfactory answer, PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan said the cabinet should"take full responsibility and immediately resign.""The act of gazetting their appointments should not be considered petty by the government as it involves the legality of the cabinet's duties and the effect of the powers used by them," he said in a statement today.
