KUALA LUMPUR - Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim described the implementation of the Parliamentary Services Act 2025 as a key step by the MADANI Government towards fulfilling its reform pledge to the people, including limiting powers traditionally held by the government.

He said the move was a key pillar of the country’s reform agenda, reflecting the government’s commitment to strengthening Parliament’s independence and advancing the maturity of the country’s parliamentary democracy.

"I consider this change and the Parliamentary Services Act important because they give meaning to parliamentary democracy and reflect the maturity of our democratic system.

"This is one of the important steps that I regard as a cornerstone of the MADANI Government’s reform agenda - fulfilling our promise to the people by introducing and passing the Parliamentary Services Act to limit powers traditionally held by the government,” he said.

Anwar was speaking at the Malaysian Parliament’s Administrative Transition and Institutional Reform ceremony, held at the Parliament Building here today in conjunction with the implementation of the Parliamentary Services Act 2025. - BERNAMA
