He shrugged off politicians' suggestion the election be delayed in exchange for a “better charter”, saying he will force the CDC to keep to its schedule. The CDC is required to complete drafting by July 23, while the National Reform Council will vote on it by Aug 6.
“You have to ask political parties why they have come up with this proposal,” he said. “My job is to do what is prescribed in the interim charter.”
Mr Borwornsak rejected further criticism of the draft by chief ombudsman Siracha Vongsarayankura, who described it as unpractical.
He said Mr Siracha has a vested interest in discrediting the draft, which calls for a merger of the Office of Ombudsman and the National Human Rights Commission.
