    Noyan Tapan
    May 31 2006

    YEREVAN, MAY 31, NOYAN TAPAN. The special sitting of the RA National
    Assembly that was convened on the initiative of more than 5 dozens
    of deputies, started on May 31. There are about 50 issues on the
    agenda, including elections for vacant posts of the National Assembly
    Speaker and Chairmen of two of the NA Standing Committees. According
    to preliminary data, discussion of the issue on elections is scheduled
    for June 1. 11 draft laws and legislative packages and 8 international
    agreements discussed during the previous four-days sittings are on the
    agenda. All those were adopted, except the legislative law "On Making
    Amendments to the RA Laws "On Natural Persons' Property and Incomes
    Declaration" and "On Income Tax" discussed in the second reading and
    the draft "On Making Amendments and Additions to the Criminal Code"
    discussed in the first reading by which punishments are envisaged for
    spitefully avoiding taxes, duties and other compulsory payments. The
    discussion of the above-mentioned drafts failed as the necessary number
    of deputies, at least 66 ones, did not participate in the votion. We
    must mention that their adoption at the Parliament is correspondigly
    failed for the third and second time. The first package this time got
    at least 54 "for" and one "against" and one "abstaining" votes. The
    "Orinats Yerkir" (Country of Law), "Ardaroutiun" (Justice), "Azgayin
    Miabanutiun" (National Unity) factions, "People's Deputy" group as
    well as some deputies from the "RPA" faction did not participate
    in the votion. 46 deputies were for the second draft, without no
    "against" and "abstaining" votes.

    Besides the above-mentioned unions, 3 of the "ARF" 4 non-partizan
    members did not participate in the votion of this draft.
