KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 14 — The Parliamentary Service Council (MPP), which will oversee the administrative autonomy of the Malaysian Parliament, is expected to be fully operational by December.

Dewan Rakyat Speaker Tan Sri Johari Abdul said the council would oversee matters including the service scheme, career paths and administration of parliamentary officers, as well as ensure compliance with the provisions of the Parliamentary Services Act 2025.

“We hope the establishment of the MPP, beginning in December, will enable Parliament to restore the principle of separation of powers and strengthen the country’s democracy in accordance with the mandate of the Federal Constitution,” he told a press conference after the handover ceremony marking administrative transition and institutional reform at the Malaysian Parliament here today.
