AT THE NA SITTING
National Assembly of RA, Armenia
June 14 2006
On June 12 the MPs approved by voting the agenda of June 12-14 sittings
and the NA decision on making amendments to the sittings’ agenda.
The drafts presented by the "Ardarutiun" faction on the establishment
of the NA Ad-hoc Committee on Studying the Violations during the
Referendum on November 27, 2005 on the RA Constitutional Amendments and
on Establsihment of the NA Ad-hoc Committee on Studying the Violations
during the RA State Elections in 2003 were rejected by voting.
Due to a lack of quorum, the session drafts and sitting agenda drafts
included in the first part were not adopted.
The MPs continued the debates on Report of the RA Civil Service
Council Activity, interrupted at previous sitting.
Rafik Petrosyan, Chairman of the NA Standing Committee on State-Legal
Affairs, highly evaluating the work of the Council, noted that though
the Council’s fundamental rights are fixed in the Fundamental Law
related to Civil Service, the Council didn’t enforce it and didn’t
present the analytical report.
The RA President’s proposals submitted by the RA President Assistant
Gevorg Mheryan on Making Amendments and Addendum to the RA Criminal
Executive Code and on Making Amendment to the RA Criminal Procedure
Code were also debated.
Rafik Petrosyan, Chairman of the NA Standing Committee on State-Legal
Affairs informed that the misunderstanding took place: instead of
the option, debated and voted in the Parliament, on the fault of the
Government representative the previous option of the draft was sent
to the President. According to the evaluation of Gurgen Arsenyan,
Head of ULP faction, it is not misunderstanding, but the falsification
took place. Mr. Arsenyan blamed their faction as well, as political
power assumed over a political responsibility.
The NA President T. Torosyan informed that the assignment had already
been given to the staff: to create mechanisms to avoid similar
situations, which afterwards must be fixed in the regulation.
The MPs debated Agreement on International Automobile Communication
signed between the Government of the Republic of Armenia and the
Government of the Republic of Georgia.
All speakers highlighted the presented Agreement not only in the
sphere of strengthening of good-neighborliness with Georgia, but from
the economic and political point.
Tigran Sargsyan, Chairman of the Central Bank, presented the RA
Central Bank 2005 Annual report.
The debate of this issue will resume on June 13 sitting.
