Sukhomruay Wannatheekul stated she is not worried about the opposition’s allegations of corruption or Senate caucus collusion, insisting she can clarify any points raised. She said she is one of the 18 ministers named in the opposition’s no‑confidence motion and is prepared to respond if they raise specific concerns. When asked about the possibility of a five‑day debate, she questioned whether such length is necessary, adding that if the discussion stays substantive and beneficial to the nation, extra time is acceptable, but cautioned against going off‑topic. Regarding the Senate caucus issue, she noted that the Election Commission has already ruled on the matter and she is ready to explain if the opposition brings it up again. She also said that if the debate strays into personal attacks, individuals have the right to protect themselves within their legal rights.
