Special cabinet meeting Monday

A special cabinet meeting will be held on Monday, Dec 12, to consider flood rehabilitation projects worth 120 billion baht, cabinet secretary-general Ampon Kitti-ampon said on Thursday.

Mr Ampon said he had circulated a letter advising all cabinet ministers of the special meeting.

Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra told the cabinet on Tuesday the government needs a better process to approve projects in flooded areas because ministries and provinces had proposed duplicate or non-urgent projects.

Without proper screening, the 120 billion baht budget set for this purpose might not be enough, she said.
