PUTRAJAYA - Registration of Societies (ROS) Department have yet to release the decision on Umno's application to ammend the party's constitution.
Home Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin said although he was supervising the department, ROS has the freedom to make its own decisions.
"For now I understand ROS has yet to release the letter, even I have no idea of the details.
"It is true I supervise the ROS but the decision is made independently by them," he said.
In May, the Umno Special General Assembly unanimously approved a motion to amend its constitution to allow party elections to be held no later than six months after a general election.
The notice on the party’s constitutional amendment was submitted to RoS on May 17.
On July 7, RoS said that the decision on Umno’s application will be known on July 16 at the latest.
