Splitting the AG’s two hats: Azalina takes charge of talks with select committee

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has directed Law and Institutional Reform Minister Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said to engage with a Parliamentary Special Select Committee on proposed constitutional amendments to separate the roles of the Attorney General and the Public Prosecutor.

These amendments, prepared in draft form by the committee, reflect efforts towards key institutional reforms following a decree by the Malay Rulers.

Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil mentioned that recommendations will be communicated back to the Conference of Rulers and noted additional reform efforts, including changes to parliamentary administration and amendments to the prime minister's tenure.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 16 — Law and Institutional Reform Minister Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said has been tasked with engaging a Parliamentary Special Select Committee on constitutional amendments to separate the roles of the Attorney General and the Public Prosecutor.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim made the announcement after a decree by the Malay Rulers on the proposed amendments at the recent Conference of Rulers meeting, Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil said today.

“The prime minister has instructed Datuk Seri Azalina to conduct the engagements and discussions with the Parliamentary Special Select Committee, which has already prepared a draft for the constitutional amendments,” Fahmi said at the weekly post-Cabinet media briefing, which was broadcast live.

“Any amendments or recommendations will then be communicated back to the Conference of Rulers,” he said.

Fahmi said the Cabinet was also briefed on the outcome of Anwar’s audience with the Conference of Rulers on proposed amendments to the prime minister’s tenure.

He said both proposals are part of the government’s key institutional reform efforts and need further refinement before they can proceed.

Separately, Fahmi said the Cabinet was told that Parliament now falls entirely under the Parliamentary Service Council, effectively ending executive control over its administration.

“This fulfills one of our promises and represents a significant institutional reform effort,” he said.

首相拿督斯里安华·易卜拉欣已指示法律及体制改革部长拿督斯里阿扎丽娜·奥斯曼·赛义德与国会特别遴选委员会就拟议的宪法修正案进行磋商，以分离总检察长和公共检察官的职责。

这些由委员会起草的修正案反映了马来统治者颁布法令后，为进行关键体制改革所做的努力。

通讯部长拿督斯里法米·法兹尔提到，相关建议将反馈给统治者会议，并指出其他改革措施，包括议会行政改革和首相任期修订。

吉隆坡，10 月 16 日讯——法律及体制改革部长拿督斯里阿扎丽娜·奥斯曼·赛义德已受命与国会特别遴选委员会接洽，研究宪法修正案，以分离总检察长和公共检察官的职责。

通讯部长拿督斯里法米·法兹尔今天表示，首相拿督斯里安华·易卜拉欣是在马来统治者们最近召开的统治者大会上通过法令，提出修正案后宣布了这一消息。

“首相已指示拿督斯里阿扎丽娜与国会特别遴选委员会进行接洽和讨论，该委员会已拟定了宪法修正案草案，”法米在每周一次的内阁会后媒体简报会上表示，该简报会进行了现场直播。

他说：“任何修改或建议都将反馈给统治者会议。”

法米表示，内阁还听取了安华与统治者会议就拟议的总理任期修正案进行磋商的结果汇报。

他表示，这两项提议都是政府关键体制改革举措的一部分，在实施前还需要进一步完善。

法赫米还表示，内阁被告知，议会现在完全归议会服务委员会管辖，实际上结束了行政部门对其行政管理的控制。

他说：“这兑现了我们的一项承诺，也代表着一项重大的体制改革努力。”
