YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 26, NOYAN TAPAN. About 5 dozens of drafts
and legislative packages as well as 9 international agreements
presented for certification by the RA President were put on the
agenda of the regular four-days of the RA National Assembly started
on February 26. The Parliament adopted during the morning sitting
the law on making amendments and additions to the RA Code concerning
Administrative Offences returned by the RA President's objection
and proposal. The law was adopted on February 7. The proposal
relates to only making a technical correction, particularly, to the
amendment concerning numbering articles of laws. The NA also adopted
9 drafts and legislative packages discussed at the February 22 special
sitting. Among them, the packages on drafts to legislative amendments
"On Television and Radio," "On RA Citizenship" as well as the draft
on making amendments and additions to the NA regulations-law were
adopted in the 2nd reading and completely. The latter's adoption is
provided by the necessity of bringing the regulations in correspondence
with the constitutional amendments. But, it does not involve the
amendments arising of the February 16 decision of the Constitutional
Court. To recap, the Constitutional Court recognized contradicting the
constitution and invalid the demand of the regulations on broadcasting
a number of programs of the Public Television covering works of the
Parliament. As NA Speaker Tigran Torosian mentioned, as a result of the
agreement reached with the administration of the Public Television, the
"Parliamentary Week" program will be broadcast from now on at 20:00,
every Sunday, instead of former 21:00, and the amendments arising of
the decision of the Constitutional Court will already be made in the
regulations by the NA of the next convention.
