Commission II to discuss two bills

JAKARTA: The House of Representatives Commission II on home
and legal affairs hopes to finish deliberation of two bills in
the current sitting period, commission chairman Teras Narang said
on Tuesday.

He said it would endorse a bill on the eradication of
corruption and another on the legal profession.

"We only have 25 working days to discuss the bills but if time
does not allow, we will focus on the first bill," he said. The
sitting period ends on Nov. 30.

The House was supposed to pass the corruption bill in
September last year.

Teras said the commission was also obliged to draft
administrative requirements for Supreme Court justice candidates
next month. --JP
