Bangkok: The Prime Minister is set to engage in discussions with members of parliament following the Constitutional Court's announcement that two or three referendums will be conducted on proposed constitutional amendments. The Prime Minister emphasized that the process will adhere to the government's planned timeline.
According to Thai News Agency, Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul addressed the court's decision, raising the question of whether it would be necessary to seek the People's Party's opinion before proceeding. He indicated the need to consult with parliamentarians to gather their perspectives. The Prime Minister mentioned that he has only recently received the court's decision and has yet to delve into the specifics. Consequently, he plans to review the details and seek additional information before moving forward.
When questioned about the potential impact of a four-month period on extending the timeline for completing the constitutional amendment, Mr. Anutin clarified that such matters are distinct and should not be conflated.
