Reported 8 months ago

President Lai Ching-te announced the submission of a constitutional interpretation on the Legislative Yuan's exercise of powers law and amendments to the Criminal Code, responding to media questions. The Executive Yuan and the DPP caucus in the Legislative Yuan will request a constitutional interpretation after the Legislature rejected a bill last Friday. Lai stated the request and temporary disposal are regarding amendments to the Legislative Yuan's exercise of powers law and the ROC Criminal Code. He emphasized the need to protect the separation of powers, checks and balances, and human rights within a democratic constitutional system, ensuring any parliamentary reform adheres to legality and constitutionality.
