Dress codes once again became the heated topic in the Dewan Rakyat today when Teo Nie Ching (DAP-Kulai) urged the Health Ministry to instruct public hospitals and clinics to give treatment regardless of what the patient and family members wore.

Speaking during the debate on 2016 Budget at the committee stage, Teo raised incidents of female visitor and patients not being allowed to enter hospitals or being refused treatment by the authorities.
