Speaker of the House of Representatives Wan Muhamad Noor Matha said that the Senate, the eight-party alliance led by the Move Forward Party and other political parties agreed to spend six hours for discussion before Thai legislators vote for the new prime minister.

He said that legislators will give their proposal on whether candidates should explain their visions as the Thai government leader or not.

Thailand's constitution stipulates that to become the prime minister, a candidate needs to receive the support of a majority of 750 members of the Senate and the House of Representatives or at least 376 votes.
