YEREVAN, October 5. /ARKA/. MPs from the ruling coalition intend to
vote at the parliament sessions in a coordinated manner, Secretary
of the parliament group of "Prospering Armenia" party (PAP) Aram
Safarian told a press conference.
According to him, the parties intend to have consultations before
each parliament’s session for discussing every single draft law.
"Every draft law will be discussed at the sitting of our party, and
then three representatives of "Prospering Armenia" will be presenting
our stance at the general meeting with RPA (Republic Party of Armenia –
ARKA)," Safarian said.
He pointed out that the discussion will strengthen the cooperation
between the coalition parties.
"We have not had yet a case when RPA’s and PAP’s stances are
fundamentally different from each other, and I believe that the policy
we follow in the National Assembly reduces the chances of it.
We have the law lobbying mechanism in common and an intended decision
to vote "against" will be pathology," Safarian said.
The agreement on establishing a coalition was signed between the
Republican Party of Armenia and "Prospering Armenia" Party on June 6.
In its turn, the political coalition signed an agreement on cooperation
with ARF Dashnaktsutiun.
