There is no point in tabling the Urban Renewal Bill (URA) for its second reading in Parliament as the core issue goes beyond merely raising the consent threshold to 80%, says MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

Speaking to reporters after receiving a memorandum from concerned stakeholders on Wednesday (Oct 1), Dr Wee said there were deeper concerns about the lack of transparency in the development process, protection of constitutional rights, and adequate compensation for affected homeowners.

Dr Wee, who is a member of the Parliamentary Special Select Committee (PSSC) on Infrastructure, Transport and Communications, said he would raise these concerns with the committee.
