SHAH ALAM: Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah has consented to the 14th Selangor state legislative assembly to be reconvened for two weeks beginning March 14.
Speaker Ng Suee Lim said the opening ceremony for the new meeting will be steeped in tradition.
“The meeting this time will be held as scheduled and the Selangor ruler has given his consent to grace the opening.
“Discussions will revolve around the royal address, which is expected to touch on several issues affecting the state,” he told Bernama.
Ng said a notice on the opening of the meeting was sent to all 56 assemblymen today.
He said Sungai Tawar assemblyman Rizam Ismail (Umno-BN) remains as Selangor opposition leader, but this is subject to further discussion.
Earlier today, menteri besar Amirudin Shari said the assembly will not be dissolved before Hari Raya Aidilfitri, which is tentatively set for April 22.
