When Parliament opens on Friday, President Tony Tan will set out the Government’s plans for the second half of its term, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.
Speaking to the media after the ASEAN Summit wrapped, Mr Lee said the directions set out in the National Day Rally last year will be the starting point on which Dr Tan’s presidential address will build.
“We have done a lot of work in the first half of the term and we are setting the agenda for the second half of the term. The President will set this out,” he said.
At the National Day Rally last year, Mr Lee said there would be a “shift in balance” that would see the community and the Government do more to support individuals, and announced the MediShield Life review and the Pioneer Generation Package.
