    Opposition Armenia: Amendments to the Law On Funded Pension passed
    with gross violation of the Law on the Parliament's Regulations

    Saturday, June 21, 14:06

    The Parliamentary opposition urges the parliament majority, namely the
    Republican Party Faction, to observe the Parliament's Regulations.
    Speaking at the extraordinary meeting of the Parliament on 21 June, MP
    Aghvan Vardanyan (ARFD Party), said the amendments to the Law On
    Funded Pension have been passed with gross violation of the Law on the
    Parliament's Regulations.

    Vardanyan claims that some Republican parliamentarians openly voted on
    the bill instead of their absent colleagues.
    Head of the RPA Faction Vahram Baghdasaryan said, in turn, that the
    Parliament secured the quorum at the current meeting and asked the
    opposition not to make "allegations."

    Head of the Armenian National Congress Faction Levon Zurabyan said the
    Republican Party grossly violates the regulations and asked for a
    20-minute break. However, Speaker Galuyst Sahakyan refused to break
    the meeting.

    A member of Prosperous Armenia Party Vartan Oskanian, in turn, said
    that the Parliament pushes through a law that is opposed by 80% of the
    population. He also demanded a 20-minute break.
