It is expected to be moved tomorrow, and will be proposed by a Minister from the Prime Minister’s Department.
This was revealed through a green paper to notify of the motion which was on the tables of all the MPs today.
Surendran, who is the Padang Serai MP, allegedly made the offence during a press conference at the Parliament lobby yesterday morning shortly after he was ejected from the House by Pandikar Amin (left) for attempting to bring an emergency motion on the demolition of the annexe to the Sri Muneswarar temple in Jalan P Ramlee.
During the press conference, Surendran said that the speaker was “biased” and also said that the facts about the temple demolition given by the Federal Territories Ministry, which was repeated by Pandikar Amin, as being “utter lies”.
Surendran has already been ejected from the House once earlier this session for attempting to bring an emergency motion about the death in custody case of P Karuna Nithi.
Previously, in 2010, Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim along with opposition MPs Karpal Singh, R Sivarasa, and Azmin Ali were suspended from the House for six months after the motion was passed without any debate.
They were suspended due to allegedly “misleading” comments they had made about the government's 1Malaysia slogan, where they had claimed that the slogan was inspired by an Israeli initiative.
In March 2009, Puchong MP Gobind Singh Deo was suspended for a year from the House for calling Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak a “murderer” during a heated debate in Parliament.
When contacted later, Surendran labelled the motion as an attempt to “stifle” his voice and that he would defend himself when the motion is moved in the Parliament.
“My question is - is the speaker above criticism?” he asked.
“This is a ridiculous and extreme motion, when I have committed no other offence except to criticise the speaker,” he said.
