NO SOALAN: 1 JAWAPAN Tuan Yang Di-Pertua, Pelbagai langkah sedang dilaksanakan bagi memastikan pensijilan Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) dapat dilaksanakan sepenuhnya seperti yang disasarkan. Kementerian melalui agensi seperti Lembaga Minyak Sawit Malaysia (MPOB) dan Majlis Pensijilan Minyak Sawit Malaysia (MPOCC) sedang menggiatkan usaha agar para pekebun kecil dapat mematuhi dan memperolehi pensijilan MSPO. Program Jelajah MSPO ke seluruh negara sedang dilaksanakan untuk memberi penerangan dan bantuan teknikal kepada para pekebun kecil ke arah pensijilan. Ini merupakan satu inisiatif turun padang untuk memberi pemahaman dan tunjuk ajar secara langsung kepada para pekebun kecil. Program ini turut dirangka mengikut kesesuaian penduduk setempat bagi memudahkan komunikasi dalam memastikan pemahaman tentang MSPO dan seterusnya diterima pakai oleh pekebun kecil. Tuan Yang Di-Pertua, Bagi menggalakkan lebih ramai pekebun kecil mendapatkan pensijilan MSPO dan pada masa yang sama mengurangkan bebanan mereka, Kerajaan telah menyediakan dana yang merangkumi kos yuran pensijilan, pembelian peralatan perlindungan diri (PPE) dan pembinaan rak bahan kimia. Selain itu, Kerajaan juga turut menanggung kos latihan dan taklimat kepada pekebun kecil sawit di seluruh negara. Pengumuman geran MSPO untuk pengusaha sawit oleh Kementerian Kewangan baru-baru ini juga NO SOALAN: 1 adalah merangkumi bantuan kepada pekebun kecil tersusun bagi menggalakkan lebih ramai penanam sawit mendapat pensijilan MSPO.

Untuk makluman Yang Berhormat, Kerajaan tetap dengan pendirian untuk terus melaksanakan pensijilan MSPO bagi industri sawit negara dan memandatorikannya bermula 1 Januari 2020. Ini selaras dengan kenyataan oleh YAB Perdana Menteri semasa ucapan beliau dalam Perhimpunan Agung Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (PBB) pada 29 September 2018 iaitu Malaysia akan pastikan semua minyak sawitnya mematuhi standard MSPO menjelang 2020. Sekian, terima kasih.

NO SOALAN: 2 JAWAPAN Tuan Yang di-Pertua, Kementerian Pertahanan sentiasa memandang serius tentang isu keselamatan negara dan ke arah itu, pelbagai usaha telah dan sedang diambil untuk memastikan kedaulatan negara akan terus dipelihara daripada sebarang bentuk ancaman. Sejak berakhirnya Op DAULAT pada 29 Jun 2013, Angkatan Tentera Malaysia (ATM) telah meneruskan usahanya untuk memperkukuhkan pertahanan dan kedaulatan negara termasuklah di negeri Sabah, khususnya di kawasan Pantai Timur Sabah. Bagi menangani ancaman keselamatan dari luar di kawasan Pantai Timur Sabah, ATM memfokuskan peningkatan keupayaannya di negeri Sabah sebagai langkah menghadapi sebarang kemungkinan. Ketika ini, ATM mengekalkan atur gerak trup dan aset tambahan dari ketiga-tiga Perkhidmatan, iaitu Tentera Darat Malaysia (TDM), Tentera Laut Diraja Malaysia (TLDM) dan Tentera Udara Diraja Malaysia (TUDM) untuk memperkukuhkan kawalan keselamatan di Kawasan Tanggungjawab (KTJ) daripada dibolosi penjenayah rentas sempadan atau ancaman-ancaman yang lain serta memperagakan kehadiran (show of presence) bagi mencegah sebarang ancaman keselamatan. Sebagai makluman, aset-aset ATM yang sedang beroperasi di negeri Sabah terdiri daripada beberapa Batalion Infantri, Kompeni Parachute dan Kompeni Mekanize Tentera Darat, aset-aset TLDM termasuk Pangkalan NO SOALAN: 2 Laut, aset-aset TUDM dan Pasukan-pasukan Khas daripada ketiga-tiga Perkhidmatan ATM. Malaysia turut memeterai persepakatan dengan Filipina dan Indonesia melalui perjanjian Trilateral Cooperative Arrangement (TCA) on Immediate Measures to Address Security Issues in the Maritime Areas of Common Concern pada 14 Julai 2016 bagi kerjasama menghalang atau menghadapi ancaman keselamatan serta jenayah rentas sempadan di kawasan perairan Laut Sulu dan Laut Sulawesi.

NO SOALAN: 3 JAWAPAN Tuan Yang di-Pertua, 1. Kerajaan melalui Kementerian Sumber Manusia menubuhkan Jabatan Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan atau JKKP bagi menguatkuasakan tempat kerja membabitkan aspek keselamatan dan kesihatan di tempat kerja melalui Akta Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan 1994. 2. Kerajaan juga menubuhkan sebuah institut bagi menjalankan aktiviti latihan, rundingan, penyelidikan dan pembangunan serta penyebaran maklumat. Institut ini dinamakan Institut Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan Negara atau NIOSH. Selain latihan berdasarkan perundangan, NIOSH juga membangunkan kokurikulum latihan berdasarkan kehendak majikan dari pelbagai sektor industri. 3. Pihak Kementerian melihat keperluan untuk memperkasakan keselamatan dan kesihatan di tempat kerja berdasarkan perkembangan teknologi dan pembangunan negara. Usaha proaktif dan penambahbaikan berterusan perlu diambil oleh pihak Kementerian bagi memastikan objektif untuk mengurangkan kes kemalangan di tempat kerja. Maka atas sebab itu, Kementerian melihat keperluan untuk JKKP dan NIOSH memainkan peranan masing-masing dengan lebih fokus dan khusus berdasarkan prinsip Check and Balance, bagi menambah keyakinan rakyat ke atas kualiti penyampaian perkhidmatan kerajaan kepada rakyat. NO SOALAN: 3 4. Pengasingan bidang kuasa JKKP di tempat kerja dan NIOSH di aspek latihan akan akhirnya dapat meningkatkan kecekapan kerajaan dan seterusnya memudah cara keperluan industri. Pihak Kementerian akan membentangkan cadangan melibatkan akta latihan keselamatan dan kesihatan pekerjaan (KKP) ini untuk persetujuan Jemaah Menteri sebelum di bawa ke Parlimen. NO SOALAN: 4 PEMBERITAHUAN PERTANYAAN LISAN DEWAN NEGARA MESYUARAT KEDUA 2019, PENGGAL KEDUA, PARLIMEN KEEMPAT BELAS PERTANYAAN : LISAN DARIPADA : YB PUAN HAJAH RAHEMAH BINTI IDRIS TARIKH : 25 JULAI 2019 Puan Hajah Rahemah Binti Idris minta PERDANA MENTERI menyatakan audit yang dibuat oleh firma luar PWC menunjukkan Tabung Haji mengalami defisit RM4.1 Bilion pada tahun 2017. Apakah tindakan yang di ambil kepada firma audit sebelum itu yang melaporkan Tabung Haji memperoleh keuntungan dan juga Ketua Audit Negara yang telah meluluskan akaun Tabung Haji untuk tahun 2017 dengan tidak ada sebarang defisit. NO SOALAN: 4 JAWAPAN Yang di-Pertua, Untuk makluman Ahli Yang Berhormat, auditan oleh Jabatan Audit Negara selesai pada 16 Julai 2018, manakala hibah bagi tahun 2017 diumumkan lebih awal oleh Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) iaitu pada 7 Februari 2018. Pengisytiharan hibah oleh TH dalam bulan Februari 2018 adalah tidak tertakluk kepada selesainya auditan oleh Jabatan Audit Negara. Penyata Kewangan TH bagi tahun berakhir 31 Disember 2017 yang telah diaudit Jabatan Audit Negara jelas menunjukkan bahawa jumlah aset pada tarikh penyata kewangan adalah sebanyak RM70.3 bilion manakala jumlah liabiliti dan kumpulan wang simpanan pendeposit (termasuk hibah bagi tahun 2017) adalah sebanyak RM74.4 bilion, menjadikan jumlah defisit yang dinyatakan dalam Penyata Kewangan yang telah diaudit sebanyak RM4.1 bilion pada 31 Disember 2017.

Kegagalan membuat peruntukan rosot nilai yang secukupnya dalam Penyata Untung & Rugi NO SOALAN: 4 Kaedah penetapan polisi rosot nilai aset kewangan TH tidak konsisten terutamanya pada tahun kewangan berakhir 31 Disember 2017 di mana polisi ini telah diubah sebanyak dua (2) kali. Perubahan polisi rosot nilai ini telah diguna pakai untuk membolehkan TH mengagihkan hibah yang tinggi untuk tahun 2017. Lanjutan dari teguran dari Jabatan Audit Negara tersebut, TH telah mengambil khidmat nasihat tetuan PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PwC) bagi membuat penilaian (financial review) terhadap kedudukan kewangan TH bagi tahun berakhir pada 31 Disember 2017 (yang telah diaudit). Menurut penilaian kedudukan kewangan oleh PwC, TH yang merekodkan defisit sebanyak RM4.1 bilion adalah tidak berkeupayaan

Road safety data collection Definitions • Road fatality: deaths resulting from a road crash within 30 days after the crash. • Serious injuries: any person injured as a result of a road crash as referred to section 320 of the Penal Code • Slight injuries: any injury that does not fit under death or serious injury Data collection The Royal Malaysian Police (RMP) is the agency responsible for collecting crash data in Malaysia. There is a standardised form (POL27), used to collect all relevant information for each crash occurrence in Malaysia. The form covers the information on vehicle, environment, injury, location and background of the crash occurrence, as well as the victim involved. In Malaysia, all road crashes must be reported to the police. Therefore police data covers all types of crashes: fatal, serious, slight, or damage only. Malaysia is just starting working towards estimation of underreporting. 2. Most recent safety data Road crashes in 2012 In 2012, there was a stagnation in the number of road fatalities, with 6 917 road deaths compared to 6 877 in 2011 (+0.58%). The number of severe and slight crashes decreased by 3.7% and 0.4% respectively. Many road safety interventions were implemented in 2012. One of the most important measures is the implementation of the Automated Enforcement System (AES), targeting both speeding and red light running related offences. 1. Data included in this report have not yet been validated by IRTAD.
