遭民主党主席淡马亚质问 王瑞杰坚称选区检讨委会独立性

民主党主席淡马亚医生(Paul Tambyah)在一项公开活动上,质问副总理王瑞杰,是否有充分理由,不让选区范围检讨委员会(EBRC)从总理公署独立出来?

昨日,新加坡国立大学政策研究所(IPS)举办新加坡开埠200周年研讨会。也是财政部长的王瑞杰在会上发表谈话,并回应出席者提问。

在会上淡马亚医生抛出以上疑问。他清楚,有关选区范围检讨,仍是由“独立公务员”决策,不过最终他们仍需向总理报告。这对于本土全面民主的发展,仍有待改善。

上月4日,选举局在官网发布文告,宣布总理已召开成立了选区范围检讨委员会。

总理秘书陈基荣担任选区范围检讨委会主席。选举局局长许松岭担任委员会秘书,其他委员包括:建屋发展局局长蔡君炫博士、新加坡土地管理局局长陈文凯和统计局局长王辉锦。

对于淡马亚的提问,王瑞杰则坚称上述委会的独立性和效率,他解释,要做好选区划分,包括人口分布和变化都需要考量,这需要来自专家的意见。

他也指出,包括波东巴西、后港和阿裕尼待上届选举仍保持不变。

“所以我希望你不会质疑他们的独立性,他们在做对的事情。”

对于住宅规划纳入的改变,他也欣慰政府公务员有能力独立工作,并且对于什么方案最佳,给予政府建议。

对于淡马亚质问,选区检讨委会仍需向总理报告,王瑞杰则回应“除非你说他们是出于政治动机… …但你也说了他们是独立的!”

选区范围检讨委员会的成立,旨在于选举前划分选区,也是迈入大选前进行的例行工作。
