The Penang government has been given one week to respond to allegations that they overpaid in consultancy fees over three new roads that were part of the state's undersea tunnel project.

BN strategic communications (BNSC) team director Abdul Rahman Dahlan said his team will submit evidence to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) if the state government fails to respond.

"Let's say we give them a week, let them celebrate Hari Raya Aidilfitri first.

"We want to give them a chance to respond. We didn't want them to say that we (BN) victimised them," Abdul Rahman told a press conference in Cyberjaya today.
