PM Lee waives Parliamentary privilege on his statements

Singapore

PRIME Minister Lee Hsien Loong has waived his Parliamentary privilege over the statements he made in Parliament to dispute the claims made against him by his siblings over the fate of 38 Oxley Road.

The public clash within the Lee family, first played out over social media, had led PM Lee this week to address through Parliament allegations by his siblings of an abuse of power over the process of deciding if the Lees' family home should be demolished. Singapore's founding prime minister Lee Kuan Yew died on March 23, 2015.
