A meeting is scheduled for December 7 to clarify election dates and when political restrictions are likely to be lifted. The meeting will be between political parties ramping up for next year’s poll and the so-called “Five Rivers”, which includes the NCPO, the Cabinet, the National Legislative Assembly, the Constitution Drafting Committee and the Election Commission.

Thai PBS is reporting that Deputy PM, Wissanu Kreangam, says he believes that the December 7 meeting will provide a clearer picture about the lifting of political restrictions. But he admits that he doesn’t know whether there would be a joint statement coming out of the meeting, saying that it would be up to NCPO.

The regular meeting of the NCPO and the Cabinet was moved back to yesterday (from today) as the PM visits Germany today and tomorrow.
