Therefore, the letters of accreditation issued by the Union Election Commission to the MPs of the respective Hluttaws will have no effects during the investigation period.” Moreover, it is found that those who do not complete taking oath according to Section 125 of the Constitution, Pyithu Hluttaw Rule 5 and Amyotha Hluttaw Rule 5 are not deemed as Hluttaw MPs. 2. The announcement of UEC on 25 February also stated,” “It is illegal to perform the Hluttaw works such as forming committees representing Hluttaw without authority, holding committee meetings, making announcements and notifications and appointment of representatives during the investigation period of UEC.” 3. The formation of “Committee Representing Pyidaungsu Hluttaw (CRPH)” by the ones who have no rights to stand as Hluttaw MPs does not conform to the law and seem to violate the serious crimes. Those who do not want to participate in CRPH can report in person to the nearest region/state/ self-administered division or self-administered zones, district administration councils between 28 February and 6 March. 4. It is here announced that those who make a report during fixed period will not face action, and if not, serious action will be taken in accordance with the existing laws of the state.
