Laws meant to discourage defections by elected lawmakers should be built into the Federal Constitution, instead of being federal legislation, the Dewan Rakyat was told.

Ramkarpal Singh (Pakatan Harapan-Bukit Gelugor) said restricting the rights of a lawmaker was dealing with fundamental liberties and hence should be dealt with in the Constitution.
