The Tongan Government is yet to reply to issues regarding the reform process for board members of several government owned public enterprises.
The issue was raised by Lord Nuku in response to the on-going public debate where two members of the Board of the Tonga Broadcasting Commission have refused to voluntarily resign following an offer by Government.
Member of Parliament, Lavulavu pointed out that Parliament was not the place to discuss such an issue as it is before Cabinet.
However, the Acting Speaker of Parliament, Lord Tu'i'afitu did not agree with the views and insisted that the issue be discussed by Parliament.
