The Constitutional Court has set a hearing for July 10 to review the temporary disposal of the law amending congressional powers. This amendment, pushed by KMT and MPP party caucuses, includes provisions granting the Legislative Yuan disciplinary, investigative, and hearing powers, as well as criminalizing contempt of the parliament, a move challenged by the DPP for violating the principle of separation of powers. Various parties have submitted requests for constitutional interpretation and temporary disposals, with the court now preparing for the hearing and discussing the potential impacts of the amendment's enforcement before deciding on the necessity of temporary disposal.
