Bangkok: The Cabinet has approved 31 draft bills, notably the Clean Air Act and the Bankruptcy Act, which are set to move forward. Ms. Ratchada Thanadirek, spokesperson for the Prime Minister's Office, announced that the Cabinet meeting resolved to request Parliament's consideration of draft bills that have not yet been approved, pursuant to Section 147 of the Constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand.

According to Thai News Agency, the draft bills awaiting Parliament's approval include significant legislative proposals aligned with government policy. Among these are the draft Act Repealing the Act on Offenses Arising from the Use of Checks B.E. 2534 (1991) from the Ministry of Justice, and the draft Act Facilitating the Consideration of Permits and Services to the Public from the Office of the Civil Service Commission. Other important drafts include amendments to the Securities and Exchange Act and the Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi Act, alongside proposals focusing on anti-money laundering and Thai traditional medicine wisdom protection.

The Cabinet has also emphasized the importance of the draft Clean Air Management Act, urging Parliament to further consider this critical law. Despite concerns from relevant government agencies regarding aspects such as fee collection clarity and potential fund duplications, the government remains committed to supporting the Act to enhance citizens' quality of life.

Additionally, the Cabinet approved the submission of 10 other draft bills to Parliament, which have already been accepted in principle. These include the draft Act on the Organization for Frequency Allocation and Regulation of Radio Broadcasting and the draft Act on Trade Competition.
