Senate election draft decree approved
The Cabinet on Wednesday (Oct 9) approved the draft decree for election to the Senate. The law is expected to come into effect next month and the 250 senators should be finalised by late April.
Government Spokesman Sansern Kaewkamnerd said that the list of all Senate candidates, except the six who would be chosen ex-officio, should be presented to the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) to choose from by February 9, 15 days before the MP election takes place on February 24.
