ArmInfo.The "My Step" faction of the National Assembly of Armenia proposes to form 11 standing parliamentary commissions. On January 15, at the plenary session of the National Assembly MP from the "My Step" faction Vladimir Vardanyan stated.
Thus, in his words, unlike the National Assembly of the sixth convocation of the Republic of Armenia, there will be two more commissions in the parliament of the seventh convocation. This is due to the fact that the State Law and Human Rights Commission will be divided, and two separate structures will be formed. In addition, it is proposed to form a commission on regional integration, which will deal with the harmonization of legislation of Armenia and the Eurasian Economic Union. At the same time, Vladimir Vardanyan continued, it is proposed to establish the representativeness of the MPs in the commissions being formed. Thus, the commission on healthcare and social issues will consist of 12 members, the commission on external relations - out of 14, the commission on science, education, culture, sports and the Diaspora - out of 12 members. In addition, 10 MPs will work in the commission for European integration, 10 in the commission for human rights and public affairs, 11 in the commission on defense and security issues, 15 in the commission on state and legal issues, 15 self- government, agriculture and nature conservation - 12, in the commission on economic issues - 15, in the commission on financial-credit and budgetary issues - 10 parliamentarians.
Vladimir Vardanyan also said that the increase in the representation of MPs in the NA commissions is connected with the increase in the number of MPs.
To recall, according to the constitutional law "On the NA Rules of Procedure", the formation of permanent parliamentary commissions is carried out during the first meeting of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia.
