KMT Proposal to Raise Recall Threshold: Interior Ministry to Consider Social Consensus Cautiously

Reported 12 months ago

The Kuomintang (KMT) caucus in the Legislative Yuan introduced a draft amendment to the Recall and Elections Act to increase the difficulty of recalls, with lawmakers such as Huang Ya-chi and Xu Hsin-ying proposing modifications mainly regarding recall proposals and thresholds. While some parties have expressed disagreement with raising the threshold, the Ministry of the Interior emphasized the need to carefully consider social consensus before adjusting it. The current law aims to avoid overly restricting the people's right to recall, and any amendments should reflect societal consensus and careful deliberation.
