On June 16, with 93 pros, no cons and abstentions the National
Assembly adopted the draft decision on "Forming an ad hoc commission
to investigate the events of March 1 and 2 and their consequences. The
draft decision suggests creating an ad hoc commission to submit to the
NA a conclusion on the events of March 1 and 2 and their reasons. It
is noted that " the Commission is aimed at investigating the events
of March 1 and 2 and their results, the legality of the cases of
violence and the Police actions, the clarification of the conditions
of the death of the victims, presenting suggestions on political,
legal and solutions to prevent the reoccurrence of such events."
When carrying out the enlisted responsibilities, the Commission is
authorized to submit inquiries to the state and local self-government
bodies, law-enforcement bodies, which should provide necessary
information.
Within three days after its formation the Commission will send
an invitation to Levon Ter-Petrossian and other non-parliamentary
forces to participate in its activities with the right to speak at
the parliament.
One representative from each non-parliamentary force, the list of
which will be determined by the Commission will have the right to
participate in the latter's work.
The Commission should elect a President and Vice-President. By October
25, 2008 the Commission should report to the National Assembly on
the results of its work by presenting a conclusion.
The "Zharangutiun" Party boycotted the vote on the grounds that the
National Party had rejected their proposals.
