Overview
- WP’s three-member panel has finished its probe and will submit a final report with recommendations to the Central Executive Committee in April, with a notice for a Special Cadre Members’ Conference to follow within about two weeks.
- The panel, formed in January, includes Sengkang MPs He Ting Ru and Jamus Lim and former Hougang MP Png Eng Huat, and it reviewed whether Singh breached the party’s constitution after his criminal conviction.
- Singh was convicted in February 2025 of giving false answers to a parliamentary committee, and the High Court in December 2025 upheld findings that he told ex-MP Raeesah Khan to keep to a lie and later misled the committee.
- Following a January motion in Parliament that deemed him unfit to remain Leader of the Opposition, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong removed Singh from the post and the Workers’ Party declined to nominate a replacement, leaving the seat vacant.
- The Law Society began disciplinary proceedings in March over the conviction, and CNA reported that cadre members sought a special conference where Singh’s role as party chief could be discussed.
