Committee of Supply 2026 debate, Day 5: Lee Hui Ying on animals in urban spaces
As Singapore’s spaces become greener, urban bird populations have risen. With crow shooting to resume after a rise in attacks, MP Lee Hui Ying asked what protocols and safeguards will be in place to minimise public exposure in residential areas, especially for young children. She suggested that upstream measures be strengthened and the impact of culling on broader local biodiversity be studied. In parliament on Wednesday (Mar 4), Ms Lee also spoke on pressures facing the construction sector and asked about long-term plans to grow infrastructure, manpower and the local talent pipeline to ensure supply can meet demand.
