Discussion put off for 15 days
Today the National Assembly postponed the discussion of ARF-Dashnaktsutiun's proposal and Heritage's draft bill for 15 days. ARF-Dashnaktsutiun suggests establishing an interim commission to monitor the implementation of proposals presented in the final report of the parliamentary ad-hoc committee looking into last year's post-election deadly clashes. And Heritage proposes to set up an interim commission to study the consequences of the deaths of the March 1 victims.
Heritage MP Larissa Alaverdian is hopeful that the 15 days will enable her colleagues to realize the importance of the interim commission. Meanwhile, she will do her best to persuade Armenian parliamentarians to vote for the bill.
The parliamentary majority thinks the monitoring function proposed by ARF-Dashnaktsutiun representative Vahan Hovhannisian must be shouldered by one of the 12 NA Standing Committees.
