Speech By Dennis Tan Lip Fong On The Social Residential Homes Bill On 8 April 2025

In his speech on the Social Residential Homes Bill, MP Dennis Tan supported the Bill’s aim to harmonise care standards under a unified licensing framework but raised key concerns on its implementation. He sought clarity on the need for tighter regulations, potential funding implications for Social Service Agencies (SSAs), staffing challenges, and the rationale for housing residents with different care needs together. He urged MSF to adopt a flexible, consultative approach and ensure that support measures are tailored to the needs of individual homes to protect both service quality and resident welfare during the transition.

Budget debate speech by Gerald Giam: Addressing employment challenges for mid-career PMETs

Over 41,000 PMETs are unemployed, with 10,700 jobless for more than six months. Many have had to take up roles below their skill level or expected salary, or struggle to break into growth sectors despite their efforts to reskill. We need a more structured and targeted job placement programme and a returnship programme to help PMETs secure better jobs. Gerald Giam (WP-Aljunied) proposed these in his speech in Parliament today.

Budget debate speech by Faisal Manap: The sandwiched dilemma

In his budget speech, Aljunied MP Faisal Manap drew attention to the plight of the middle class in Singapore, sometimes described as the ‘sandwiched’ class, earning too much to qualify for the bulk of social assistance and support; but too little to have a significant financial cushion.
