During the review of the Parliamentary Empowerment Act reconsideration case by the Legislative Yuan's full committee, Minister of Justice Cheng Ming-Qian attended to explain that the investigative power after the revision violates the rulings of Judicial Yuan No. 325 and No. 585, as it must observe the separation of powers and constitutional boundaries. Minister of National Defense Koo Tzu-hsiung also expressed concerns that if legislators can directly exercise investigative powers over the military, it might severely compromise classified information.
