[Reporter Wang Qianhao/Taipei Report] The Ministry of National Defense issued a notice on February 21 to revise the "National Defense Mobilization Preparedness Act". The 14-day draft notice period ended yesterday; Communication, in a more prudent and rigorous manner, completes our country's national defense mobilization mechanism.

In this regard, KMT Legislator Lin Weizhou held a press conference today (7) to criticize the Ministry of National Defense's pre-announcement for only 14 days and not administering it according to the law.

Lin Weizhou held a press conference today entitled "Democracy is not a vegetarian! The pre-announcement of the "Full Action Law" must be withdrawn in violation of laws and regulations." He pointed out that in the pre-announcement of the "All Action Law" of the Ministry of National According to the letter No. 1050175399 of the Yuantai Guizi dated May 5, the draft regulations and orders should be “announced to the public” for at least 60 days, unless “the situation is urgent and it is obvious that it is impossible to make an announcement in advance”, or “the situation is special and there is a short-term If it is necessary in between”, the 60-day rule can only be shortened under these two conditions.

Lin Weizhou pointed out that the reason given by the Ministry of National Defense stated that "it is to fully mobilize the emergency response mechanism, protect the rights and interests of the people and maintain national security", but does this reason meet the urgency or particularity?

If the Ministry of National Defense has intelligence showing that the People’s Liberation Army will call tomorrow, or next month, it may meet the “urgency” and shorten it to 7 days, but the point is whether the People’s Liberation Army will call tomorrow. ?

Lin Weizhou emphasized that as long as the pre-announcement is not withdrawn by the "All-Motion Law", it means that the original pre-announcement will continue to be effective. After the Executive Yuan passes it, it can be sent to the Legislative Yuan at any time.

Therefore, he asked the Ministry of National Defense to withdraw, administer according to law, and then re-announce to meet the 60-day notice period.
