Jan 26, 2010
YEREVAN, JANUARY 26, NOYAN TAPAN. The PACE Standing Committee on Rules
of Procedure, Immunities and Institutional Affairs at a January 26
meeting unanimously approved the mandates of the Armenian delegation
in PACE. David Haroutiunian, the Chairman of the RA National Assembly
Standing Committee on State and Legal Affairs, took part in the meeting
as an invitee. According to him, the committee concluded that Armenian
delegation's staff was established according to Article 25 of Council
of Europe Regulations and Article 6 of PACE Regulations.
It should be mentioned that at the PACE winter session that started the
day before in Strasbourg Armenian delegation's mandates were challenged
by the biggest party in PACE, European People's Party (EPP). The reason
for suspending the mandates was NA management's decision to move
Zaruhi Postanjian, a representative of the Zharangutiun (Heritage)
opposition parliamentary party, also a member of EPP Bureau, from
Armenian delegation's permanent staff to the reserve staff.
