Timing not right to debate amnesty bill: chief coalition whip
Chief coalition whip Chinnaworn Boonyakiart on Thursday said he saw no justification for the House deliberation of the opposition-sponsored bill on amnesty.
"Under the circumstances, tackling the economic woes and addressing the plight of the people should have the priority," he said.
Chinnaworn said he suspected the amnesty for those involved in the political turmoil might be part of the "Taksin Plan" hatched by ex-premier Thaksin Shinawatra to undermine the stability, the government and the country's reputation.
He said he has yet to seek an explanation why certain coalition MPs endorsed the draft bill.
The bill was lodged on Wednesday to await the time slot for the deliberation. It was sponsored by a group of 149 MPs from four parties, Pheu Thai, Puea Pandin, Chart Thai Pattana and Ruam Jai Thai Chart Pattana.

PM presides over the ceremony to hand out Bt2,000 cheques
Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva on Thursday presided over the ceremony for the cash hand-out for Bangkok residents at the City Hall.
"I hope the cash will help to lessen the hardship in the people's livelihood and to spur the domestic spending," he said.
Abhisit advised recipients of the cash to prudently spend their money and avoid conspicous consumption.
He said there is justification for panicking about the economic slowdown. While trying to tough out the problem, the people could help by promoting local products and domestic tourism.
The cash hand-out is part of the stimulus plan. The government has earmarked Bt19 billion for each income earner with less than Bt15,000 salary to receive a one-off cheque worth Bt2,000.
