The National Assembly Rules and Regulations, draft bills proposed by
several factions, will continue tomorrow. The secretary of Justice
fraction, Grigor Harutunyan, says the National Assembly is playing
a performance but, in fact, aims to keep to old powers.

He also said the deputies praise the bill proposed by United Working
Party (UWP) only because it is part of ruling coalition now. "I think
there is a political trade going on here," Harutunyan said.

Arshak Sadoyan, Member of Parliament, said this parliament has no
right to develop regulations for the upcoming parliament. He was
attacked by Gurgen Arsenyan, UWP chairman, saying Sadoyan does not
believe he will appear in the next parliament. "I am sure we will be
in the next parliament and even aspire for being in the majority,"
he said.
