The PR meeting reaffirmed the common policy stand of the three parties as contained in the PR Common Policy Framework 2009, Buku Jingga 2010 and PR Joint Statement 28th September 2011 that hudud is not the common agenda of PR for the forthcoming general election, which will also be the policy basis of PR after the next general election. Any change of policy can only be reached by common consensus with the agreement of all the three parties.
The Enakmen Kanun Jenayah Syariah II Negeri Kelantan (1993) was discussed at the meeting. At the meeting, DAP stressed the party’s consistent stand in not agreeing with the hudud law and explained that the hudud law is not in line with the Federal Constitution. The meeting concluded with both DAP and PAS agreeing to disagree on the hudud law.
As the hudud law is not mentioned in the PR Common Policy Framework or in Buku Jingga, it is therefore not PR policy. Only policies mentioned in the Common Policy Framework, Buku Jingga or agreed to by all 3 parties will be implemented in a PR government.
Amongst DAP leaders present were National Chair Karpal Singh, Lim Kit Siang and myself; PAS leaders present included PAS Deputy President Mat Sabu, Secretary-General Mustafa Ali and Kelantan EXCO members whilst Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim, PKR Deputy President Azmin Ali and Perak PKR Chair Dr Mohd Nur Manuty represented PKR.

民主行动党秘书长兼巴眼区国会议员林冠英于2011年10月12日于吉隆坡发表声明:
民主行动党确认,民联三党即行动党、公正党和伊斯兰党高层领袖已于2011年10月10日傍晚,在民主行动党总部举行民联会议。
民联会议再次确定三党的共同政策立场,即依据民联2009年共同政纲、2010年小橙书及2011年9月28日民联联合声明,伊斯兰刑事法将不会是民联在来届大选的共同议程,而上述三份文件也将是民联在来届大选的政策基础。任何政策的改变,必须在三党同意、达致共识的情况下才可以落实。
民联在会议上讨论了《1993年吉兰丹伊斯兰刑事法令二》。在会议中,行动党强调我们的坚定立场,即不同意推行伊斯兰刑事法,并说明有关法令违背联邦宪法。上述会议也总结,行动党和伊斯兰党在伊斯兰刑事法的课题上,双方都同意彼此可以有不同意见(Agree to Disagree)。
由于伊斯兰刑事法并不在民联共同政纲或小橙书内,因此,它不是民联政策。只有在共同政纲、小橙书或三党同意的政策,才会在民联政府内推行。
出席民联会议的行动党代表为:全国主席卡巴星、林吉祥及我本身;伊斯兰党代表为其署理主席末沙布、总秘书慕斯达法阿里、吉兰丹行政议员,而公正党代表为拿督斯里安华、署理主席阿兹敏、霹雳州主席莫哈末奴尔。
