Procedures for impeaching President Lai kicked off
Posted on 2026-01-14 14:23:13
The opposition KMT and TPP are holding two public hearings today and tomorrow
as they seek to impeach President Lai Ching-te.

The Legislative Procedure Committee has also passed a decision to invite the
President to the Legislative Yuan on January 21st to deliver his response and
explanations, as well as answer lawmakers' questions.

If he doesn't show up, representatives of the political parties will speak
instead.

The Legislative Yuan passed the impeachment introduced by opposition parties
last month after President Lai and Premier Chuo Jung-tai refused to
promulgate amendments to the Allocation of Government Revenues and
Expenditures Act.

A separate impeachment targets Chuo as well.

Lai had said the impeachment proceedings against him are a waste of time.

According to the Constitution, an impeachment can only pass with the support
of two-thirds of all lawmakers.
