SINGAPORE — Progress Singapore Party's (PSP) Non-Constituency Member of Parliament Hazel Poa has filed a motion requesting Transport Minister S Iswaran to be suspended as an MP, following his investigation by the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB).
In a Facebook post on Friday , Ms Poa wrote that she filed the motion on Thursday to suspend Mr Iswaran “for the remainder of the current session of the 14th Parliament”.
Her post comes after Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said in a ministerial statement delivered to Parliament on Aug 2 that Mr Iswaran was currently interdicted with a reduced pay of S$8,500 a month until further notice. Mr Lee added that to remove the MP's allowance, Parliament has to move a motion to interdict the MP as an MP."Parliament has not done that. Neither, in previous cases, has Parliament done that,” Mr Lee said, referring to past cases where ministers had been investigated for corruption.
