PUTRAJAYA: The government will begin looking into the appointment of deputy ministers this week, says economic affairs minister Rafizi Ramli.
At a press conference here, Rafizi said the deputies will most likely be sworn in a week or two, adding that the Cabinet had discussed the matter briefly yesterday.
He said it will be a similar process to the Cabinet’s appointment, with the number of deputy ministers from each party dependent on the number of MPs they had.
