“Thawat Suraban” sits as chairman of the Senate meeting regulations drafting committee.

Parliament, 'Thawat Suraban' sits as chairman of the special committee drafting the Senate meeting regulations. 'Dr. Prem' is hot-headed and proposes to dissolve the committee on government administration because its missions overlap with other committees. He proposes to separate the committees on tourism and sports because their missions are clearly different and are the face of the country. The news report from the Office of the Senate Secretariat revealed that the Special Committee to Consider the Draft of the Senate Procedure Rules (No. ...) B.E. ... has convened a meeting to select various positions and set the framework for the meeting. The meeting elected Mr. Thawat Suraban as the Chairman of the Committee, Mr. Atsadang Saeng-ngarn as the First Vice Chairman of the Committee, Dr. Premsak Piayura as the Second Vice Chairman of the Committee, Mr. Ekkachai Ruangrat as the Third Vice Chairman of the Committee, Mr. Thewarit Maneechai as the Fourth Vice Chairman of the Committee, Mr. Chivaphap Chivaphatham as the Secretary of the Committee, Mr. Suton Klakhalai as the Spokesperson of the Committee, and Mr. Chawaphon Wattanapromkol as the Assistant Spokesperson of the Committee. The meeting is scheduled to meet every Wednesday and Thursday. Dr. Premsak Piayura, the second vice chairman of the committee, revealed that he has no problem working in any position in order to drive the Senate forward. He admitted that this committee has limited time to work, but must work hard to amend the Senate meeting regulations to be up-to-date and respond to the people's problem-solving needs, especially the complaints to the Senate, so that the various committees can solve the problems. Originally, there were 26 committees, but there was a proposal to reduce the number of committees to 21. This committee, chaired by Mr. Thawat, must work quickly according to the time frame, which is to set the amendment within 7 days according to the regulations and set the consideration period at the committee level within only 30 days. The m otion to amend the Senate's 2019 regulations, proposed by Pol. Lt. Gen. Yuthana Thaiphakdi, wants to reduce the number of committees from 26 to 21. I have reviewed it and most agree. However, I would like to separate the Tourism and Sports Committee into one Tourism Committee and one Sports Committee, because the missions of these two matters are completely different. Tourism is the face of the country and the government places great importance on it in order to attract foreign investment into the country, including promoting tourism in various aspects. Meanwhile, sports are equally important. Sports are the face of the country in order to compete with the world. Nong Tennis has already won an Olympic gold medal for Thai people, so sports must be promoted intensively. Therefore, the missions of these two parts should be separated in order for the work to proceed efficiently. 'I proposed to dissolve the State Administration Commission because the mission of inspecting the administration of the state already e xists in the various commissions. The work will not be duplicated. Therefore, the number of commissions will remain the same at 21, not exceeding 21. In addition, in considering the names of the various commissions to be consistent with the missions of the work, I have proposed to the chairman of the commission that the statistics of complaints from the people to the Senate should be used as a basis for considering the establishment of the commissions. This is to consider the importance of the work that the Senate must do, to be consistent with what the people want. The Senate commissions will be able to be relied on by the people,' said Dr. Premsak. Source : Thai News Agency
