Parliament fails to reach quorum again

Parliament once again failed to convene its plenary session on Wednesday as the required number of lawmakers were absent.

Deputy Speaker Hakob Arshakyan said that, pursuant to the rules of procedure, registration will remain open for up to four hours.

Aside from Arshakyan, only two MPs were present – Hovik Aghazaryan and Hakob Aslanyan.

The MPs are busy campaigning ahead of the parliamentary elections. Parliament failed to ensure a quorum earlier on Tuesday as well.
