Yesterday the parliament failed to approve the agenda for the last
spring session running from June 12 to 14. A number of deputies
registered for asking questions about the agenda. However, it turned
out that questions relate everything but the agenda.

Hmaiak Hovhannisyan was interested when NA will elect its Vice Speaker
or if there is a majority in the parliament. Artashes Geghamyan spoke
about the devaluation of dollar. Secretary of Justice Block Viktor
Dallakyan proposed to create two interim committees that will study
the legality of 2003 republican elections and 2005 constitutional
referendum.

NA Speaker called to postpone creation of such committees. Even if
the issue is included in the big agenda, it may be discussed only in
fall since spring session will be over this week.

The president had used his power of veto and sent back two laws to
the parliament – law “On making amendments in criminal execution code”
and law “On making amendments in criminal court procedure”. Dallakian
detailed to “Im Iravunk” later that a different text was sent
to the president. The parliament, in fact, adopted these laws in
other wording. Dallakyan said this could be a mistake on made on
purpose.
