The Committee of Privileges looking into the complaint against former Workers' Party MP Raeesah Khan for lying in Parliament will continue with its work, the Clerk of Parliament said on Wednesday (Dec 1).

The committee will also be presenting its report to Parliament in due course.

Ms Khan's resignation means that Sengkang GRC will now have three MPs: Ms He Ting Ru, Associate Professor Jamus Lim and Mr Louis Chua.

However, under the law, there is no stipulation to hold a by-election for a GRC if a member of the team resigns.

A by-election is needed only if all the MPs for the GRC vacate their seats.
