The cabinet is expected to set July 18 as the first day of the no-confidence debate brought on by the opposition's censure motion, Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam said on Monday.

He said the motion had been accepted by the House of Representatives for inclusion on the agenda and the House had asked the government to decide on suitable dates for the debate.

The cabinet would make the decision at its meeting on Tuesday. Government and opposition whips could then meet to settle how many days the debate should last, Mr Wissanu said.

Asked whether the starting date would be July 18, as previously speculated, Mr Wissanu said this was probable as there were public holidays in the preceding week.
