Budget 2026

MPs from the Workers’ Party celebrated the Budget 2026’s fiscal strength, but sought to ensure that it translated into structural support and social equity. We questioned the necessity for a GST hike in the face of a large surplus, argued for permanent income tax reforms over handouts, advocated for a human-centric AI strategy, pushed for greater accountability in R&D spending, and made the case for stronger worker protection and more robust support for local SMEs.

Speech by Louis Chua On CPF (Amendment) Bill

Mr. Speaker, the Central Provident Fund or CPF (Amendment) Bill introduced today marks the closure of an important chapter in the history of Singapore’s social security system. Specifically, it facilitates the transfer of Singtel Special Discounted Shares or SDS from the CPF Board to the Central Depository or CDP accounts of over 615,000 Singaporeans.

Speech by Fadli Fawzi On CPF (Amendment) Bill

Mr Speaker,At the outset, let me state that the objective of this Bill, which seeks to provide Singaporeans with greater flexibility and ownership over the Singtel shares that they hold in their CPF accounts, is a good one.

Speech by Abdul Muhaimin On Statutes (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill

Sir, the Statutes Miscellaneous Amendment Bill spans a wide range of topics, many of significant concern to Singaporeans. Today, I will speak on four amendments especially relevant to my work in Sengkang: first, the empowerment of the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) to administer private estate upgrading programmes; second, increased penalties for wildlife feeding; third, the expansion of scope for MCST management fund utilisation; and finally, Housing and Development Board’s (HDB)'s cost recovery for compulsory acquisitions.

Speech by Andre Low On Statutes (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill

Mr Speaker, my colleagues have addressed other provisions in this Bill—including estate upgrading programmes, wildlife and strata management changes, and updates to HDB’s cost recovery framework. I have nothing to add on those Parts.

Speech by Fadli Fawzi On Statutes (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill

Mr Speaker, most of the Bill is uncontroversial housekeeping. Hence, I focus my remarks on Part 4, which is of a rather different character.

Speech by Andre Low On IMDA (Amendment) Bill

Mr Speaker,The Workers’ Party does not dispute the administrative case for this bill. The Infocomm Media Development Authority already regulates both the media and telecommunications sectors. Drawing on a common framework across both is defensible on efficiency grounds. We accept that.

Speech by Andre Low On An Artificial Intelligence (AI) Transition with No Jobless Growth Motion

Mr Speaker,The motion before this House calls for an AI transition that does not leave Singapore’s workers behind. The Prime Minister, the labour chief, the Government as a whole have all said in the past months that this is what they intend. What I want to put to examine this afternoon is whether the policy architecture we have is equal to the commitment we are being asked to affirm.

Speech by Eileen Chong On An Artificial Intelligence (AI) Transition with No Jobless Growth Motion

Mr Speaker, ‍I share the values outlined in the motion – that growth must be inclusive, that every worker matters, and that no one should be left behind in the AI transition.
