Revocation of ban on political parties' activities takes immediate effect : Govt spokesman

The Cabinet revokes ban on political parties' activities on Tuesday. The revocation took immediate effect, Government Spokesman Yongyuth Mayalarp said.

He said the Cabinet resolved to annual the first article of the Announcement No 15, after which political parties would be able to resume activities.

The announcement was ordered shortly after the military junta ousted then prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra in September last year. It barred politicians from conducting any political parties.

The lifting will allow political parties to resume their activities in order to give them a chance to present themselves as political choices to the people ahead of the general election.

The spokesman said the cabinet did not discuss on Announcement 27 which barred politicians from setting up a new party.
