Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh said that suspending Transport Minister S Iswaran from parliament would not just be unfair and premature, it would overturn the electoral mandate given to him.
Mr Iswaran is currently being investigated by the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB).
Mr Singh was responding to a motion filed by Progress Singapore Party Non-Constituency Member of Parliament Hazel Poa, who highlighted that Mr Iswaran continues to draw his full MP allowance of S$192,500 per year despite being suspended from his MP duties.
"While it is not appropriate to suspend Mr Iswaran from parliament, it may well be appropriate to suspend the payment of his MP’s allowance," Mr Singh said.
