During a briefing on Thursday, Armenia's Justice Minister Hrayr
Tovmasyan explained the constitutional procedures for the formation of
a new government in the country following National Assembly elections,
News.am reports.
He informed that the whole cabinet will resign on the first day of
the new National Assembly session, but it will continue as an acting
government.
Within ten days after the new parliament's first session-that is, until
June 10-the President, consulting with the National Assembly factions,
will appoint a new prime minister who is supported by the majority.
Within twenty days thereafter, the President, upon the new prime
minister's suggestion, will appoint new Cabinet members.
Within twenty days thereafter, the Government will introduce its
program to the parliament and if approved, it will continue its
commission.
"These are the maximum terms: 50 days. But experience shows that
this is carried out in a shorter time period. I believe a new prime
minister will be appointed and a government will be formed within
first ten days of June," Armenia's Justice Minister noted.
