The joint sitting of parliament on Tuesday approved the withdrawal of three minutes of the 2008 and 2009 Thai-Cambodian Joint Boundary Commission (JBC) meetings as requested by the government.
The government made the request after the Council of State issued an opinion that the documents did not fall within Section 190 of the constitution.
The Council of State was asked last week by Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva to interpret the Constitution Court’s ruling last month not to accept a request by lawmakers to rule on the need for parliamentary approval.
A group of 80 Democrat MPs led by Songkhla MP Sirichoke Sopha filed the request to the court through House Speaker Chai Chidchob, the ex officio parliament president, in February.
