The National Assembly today discussed the draft law on implementing
amendments and addenda in RA Law on Law on Conducting Meetings,
Rallies, Marches and Demonstrations at second reading.

Author of the draft law, Speaker of the National Assembly Tigran
Torosyan presented the changes implemented after the first reading,
which were mainly of editorial character. He noted that suggestions of
the Heritage faction were not adopted because these were principally
inconsistent with the draft.

The conclusion of the Venice Commission and the OSCE Office for
Democratic Institutions and Human Rights was positive.

"I’m sure that the changes will not only make the law correspond to
European standards, but also have improved provisions as compared
to its content before March 17. I’m confident that these changes
are necessary from the point of view of having the law correspond to
international standards and it’s necessary to adopt those as soon as
possible," the Parliament Speaker said.

Representative of the Heritage faction Vardan Khachatryan declared
that they will vote against the draft law and suggested returning to
the law that existed before March 17.

The voting on the bill is scheduled for June 11th sitting.
