Sep-Pachon. Unfortunately, the Council. Withdraw the Child Abuse Bill and reconsider it. “Natavut” said that it was like a discussion going back to the first term, even though the principles had been accepted. The content does not violate the principle, and the recipient may miscommunicate. The wording is not clear. Let’s go back and speed up the homework. Believe that it is not a political game, confident to push into consideration in time for next year’s “Children’s Day”.
Mr. Nattawut Buapratum SSP List The People’s Party (PPP) and the committee made a statement on the case for withdrawing the Bill. The amendment to the Civil and Commercial Code (No. …) B.E. that has been considered by the Extraordinary KMT has been completed, which contains the essence of the risk of illegal child rearing resulting in violence committed by parents against their children due to chaotic family conditions or social problems. There are questions about why this amendment is made to make it seem like returning to the first a
genda again. Although in the first term, all parties voted to accept the principle of 401 votes. Agree with the amendment on the right of parents to discipline their children. It must not be open to consider by discretion how to proceed appropriately and must not be abusive that affects the body and mind. Confirm that the content considered today is not contrary to the principles.
Mr. Natthawut continued that in the case of wording, the KMT has revised 3 issues. 1. Add the punishment that was originally done to preach. It is a positive word. 2. Changing the word “abuse or harm” to the word “violence” that is accepted around the world, and 3. Adjusting the word “impairment” to an unlawful act. Confirm that the content is still a consistent word. Focus on supporting parents and guardians. In finding the right method, In punishing children, it is not claimed that parents will not be able to punish or take any action against their children from now on, or that it is not claimed that it will lead to division in t
he family to the point of prosecuting the parents.
Mr. Nattawut also said that while the beating The KMT did not reinsert the word. It is a word that has already appeared in the first term of the House of Representatives. The term has a certain meaning and therefore reflects a certain level of violence, which the National Human Rights Council, which Thailand is about to ask for a seat, has protested whether it is a prohibition in civil and commercial law. Therefore, all the reasons mentioned above are not a reason to consider today in a way of revoking or disagreeing with the passage of the 2-3 agenda. Understand that society is progressing. There is a better understanding of these matters. Everyone is concerned about the problem. If there is an alternative, it will not be violent, so it is a reflection that there are still a lot of misunderstandings in the House of Representatives today.
“It was our mistake. We need to do our homework harder to communicate the correct understanding that even though this la
w belongs to only one opposition party, In the past two sessions, we regret that there is no law of the coalition party to intervene, but this matter should not be brought as a political issue. The KMT will have an urgent meeting at the beginning of next week to revise the proposed review and then quickly send it back to the National Assembly.”
Mr. Natthawut also said that in addition, in the remaining 1 month of the meeting. We ask for cooperation with the Government Whip. If it is agreed that this law There is an important guarantee for the protection of children, it should be considered at this meeting. If it is not in time for this session, it will have to question how there is a wrong process in the Assembly. This has caused many good laws to be delayed.
When asked if he saw it as a political reason rather than the communication of the People’s Party. Mr. Natthawut said that he could not repay those who disagreed. Today’s debate in the House of Representatives is like a discussion going back to the fir
st agenda. So why do we have to re-discuss it in Agenda 2? He expects that when we talk about political goals, it should be used for other things. It is probably not about children or family. He also believes in communication with political parties. He may be stuck in words that are still really vague, believing that it is not political, but unfortunately the law enforcement has been delayed, but he is confident that it will be considered before National Children’s Day next year
