Cabinet Confirmation Process Delayed Due to Lack of Parliament Committee Quorum

The Parliament Committee on Government Oversight cancelled its meeting scheduled for Saturday to review President Mohamed Muizzu's Cabinet nominations due to lack of quorum. Only three members were present, but four are required for a meeting and six for a vote. Committee Chair Mohamed Falah confirmed the cancellation. The three members who signed the motion were PNC's Ibrahim Naseem, PPM's Ahmed Thariq, and independent Abdulla Riyaz, but Riyaz did not attend. Parliament had previously sent the report back to the committee on 18 December because the administration had not submitted the mandate of the ministries.
