BANGKOK, 29 June 2015 (NNT) – National Legislative Assembly (NLA) President Pornpetch Wichitcholachai has scheduled the 40th and 41st meetings of the NLA on July 2 and 3 in order for the new attorney general to be endorsed and in order for NLA members to give approval to two draft bills.

On Thursday and Friday, NLA members will vote whether to endorse the draft bill on land expropriation for the purpose of construction of the Green Line electric train project, which involves the expropriation of land for the Bearing Station-Samut Prakan section of the electric train network. The legislators will then vote on the town and country planning bill that has already been vetted by the NLA’s subcommittee on transportation.

The NLA members will also deliberate newly presented matters such as the motion to establish an extraordinary committee on education, the proposed amending of laws related to small- and medium-sized enterprises, the motion to set up a follow-up committee on water management, and the annual report of the performance of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunication commission.
