YEREVAN, DECEMBER 3, NOYAN TAPAN. The last regular four-day sittings of
the autumn session of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia
started on December 3. Approximately 30 issues and 19 international
treaties submitted to the National Assembly for ratification by the
RA President are included on the agenda.

The election of the Chairman of the RA NA Standing Committee on
Protection of Human Rights and Public Affairs is also included on the
agenda. It should be mentioned that the above-mentioned post has been
vacant since November 12, when Arevik Petrosian, who held that office,
assumed the post of the Vice Speaker of the National Assembly. In
addition to this, the National Assembly is to conduct the election of
the lawyer-scientist members of the Council of the RA Justice as well.

The issue concerning the ratification of the suggestion of the RA
President on prolonging the deadline for joining the memorandum
of mutual understanding on the regulation of the management of the
multinational division in the stabilization forces of Iraq and other
similar issues for a year is also included among the treaties submitted
for ratification.

As Tigran Torosian, the Speaker of the National Assembly, mentioned,
it is obvious that the Parliament will not manage to discuss all the
issues included on the agenda, therefore, a convocation of a special
session is possible in case of necessity.
