The proposal of changes and supplementations in NA regulation-law, made
by MPs Davit Harutyunyan, Armen Rustamyan and Gagik Tsarukyan was being
discussed yesterday in NA Committee on State Legal Issues. The
proposals were about the extension of the competencies and the
clarification of the status of the parliamentary opposition.
According to one of the supplementations the parliamentary fraction is
considered opposition if before approving the program submitted by the
newly formed government the head of the fraction doesn't come out with
an announcement in NA session, and include one of its members in the
newly elected government. After, one of its members is included in the
newly formed government the fraction is not considered opposition.
The daft law also envisages guarantees of complete activity for the
opposition, positions of the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the
Parliamentary Committees.
In case the Parliament passes this bill the opposition has the right to
put to discussion any vital issue, every Tuesday of each four-days
session of the Parliament.
