SINGAPORE: A practising lawyer found himself standing sheepishly in the dock of the State Courts on Wednesday (Nov 6), after an alcohol-fuelled night out at Zouk nightclub in 2022.
KUALA LUMPUR: The Public Accounts Committee has recommended that the Prime Minister's Department assesses the relevance of the National Professors Council as a key driver of academic expertise in supporting the government's national development efforts.
"Following this recommendation, the department needs to update PAC on the government's decision regarding MPN’s status, whether it remains a CLBG agency under the government or otherwise, in the follow-up proceedings," she said at a press conference at the Parliament lobby on Thursday . The report revealed that MPN made payments totalling RM207,000 in fixed allowances to the chairman and deputy chairman without the responsible minister's approval.
The issue, she stated, stemmed partly from undefined key performance indicators and the absence of reports to the Prime Minister's Department, as well as funds not being allocated to the clusters/chapters.
