AZG Armenian Daily #140, 27/07/2006

Speaker of the National Assembly Tigran Torosian and the leaders of
Parliament factions discussed the amendments to the Electoral Code
suggested by the opposition. The opposition suggests adoption of 100%
proportional electoral system and forming of electoral committees
exclusively from members of political parties. The participants of
the meeting did not come to consensus on these questions. Before late
august a parliamentary workgroup is to be created in order to consider
the notes by the Venice Commission and the opposition suggestions.
