During today’s press conference Tigran Torosyan and Shavarsh Kocharyan
stated that a great amount of work should be done to bring the draft
constitutional amendments to correspondence with the demands of the
Venice Commission. To note, the second reading is to be held in August.

Tigran Torosyan excluded the possibility of conducting the
referendum in October simultaneously with the elections to the local
self-government. When reminded about the Venice Commission’s resolution
which says that the referendum should be held no later than in November
2005, Tigran Torosyan said that November is the most appropriate term.

“The second reading will be held late August, then the draft will be
submitted to the Preseident, who will have to take decision during
21 days. No sooner than 45 days and no later than 60 days the date
of the referendum should be fixed. To all appearances it will be in
November”, Tigran Torosyan said
