The parliament began discussing drafts an hour and a half before its
working day yesterday.
The deputies were discussing the agenda all day long, and took 20
minutes breaks before voting. The adoption of the agenda has become a
Â"difficult processÂ" by the NA deputy chairman Vahan Hovhannisian's
description because Â"JusticeÂ" was trying for the third time to put
into agenda its initiations about forming the NA temporary commissions
examining the infringements in 2003 elections and constitutional
referendum. Â"We offer the formation of these commissions in the
following way; to invite the chairmen of all electoral commissions
and ask them for explanation, - the secretary of "JusticeÂ" group
Victor Dallakian said and reminded. - The PACE has proposed to form a
parliamentary commission in connection with the referendum. And those
who tell tales about European values, let them vote for to these two
commissionsÂ". While the RPA fraction leader Galust Sahakian has said
that they will vote against. Aram Gaspari Sargsian marked in this
way the fact that the parliamentary majority has negative attitudes
towards the initiation on making responsible the election falsifiers;
Â" We should suppose that either those deputies are going for the
following falsifications or the majority will be responsible for
all which will happen in elections 2007. Tigran Torosian and Vahan
Hovhannisian were declaring that these would be last elections; if
we tried to rig the elections again it would be the most shameful
situation for us. And now how do you mark that they try to prevent
the falsifications, punish the falsifiers, and the majority is again
against?Â" The NA chairman Tigran Torosian replied to that question
mentioning that he shared the anxiety about the coming elections;
Â"Yes, we, first of all for our country and naturally as the obligation
of our country towards international organizations must hold the coming
parliamentary and next elections corresponding to all international
standardsÂ". But the NA chairman produced as a technical reason that
even if these issues were included in the great agenda, they would
be discussed only in autumn session. Â"I think there is no time for
the commission workÂ". DPA leader Aram Sargsian noticed that even if
that commission acted in autumn; Â"we'll manage to display clearly
our attitude towards the falsifiers. Maybe we wouldn't have any other
result but everybody would understand that falsification was a crime
and it was punishableÂ". Victor Dallakian affirmed that the mater
should be voted for including in the agenda. But before voting he
"played a trick" as he described it late. The "Justice secretary took
a break for 20 minutes then he proposed to postpone for a month the
mater of including into agenda the formation of the commission. The
proposal was refused by voting as 55 members hadn't voted, including
the oppositionists. Then Victor Dallakian declared that the issues
of forming the commission are already included in the agenda, as the
proposals of postponing it weren' t adopted. A long dispute started
between "Justice" and NA chairmen. Tigran Torosian alluded that
Vahan Hovhannisian missed the NA code allowing voting the mater of
postponing. The ULP group leader Gurgen Arsenian asked for a break,
after discussion Vahan Hovhannisian admitted his mistake; Â"That
voting doesn't have juridical consequences". And he put for voting
the mater of including the initiation of forming the commissions in
the agenda. 12 members were for, including the NA leaders. 85 members
didn't vote, the oppositionist deputies, too who were continuing to
insist that the mater of commissions was already in the agenda, so
they wouldn't take part in the illegal voting. Thanks to all these
the amendments in the law Â"About State taxesÂ" wasn't included
into agenda.
