On March 23, the RA National Assembly continued the work of the regular sittings. The bills debated on the previous day were adopted by voting, except for the legislative package on Making Addendum to the Criminal Code and on Making Addendum to the Criminal Procedure Code authored by the deputies Ishkhan Saghatelyan, Aram Vardevanyan, Aghvan Vardanyan.
Then the parliament continued the debate in the second reading started the previous day on Making Amendments and Addenda to the Law on Ensuring the Activities, Services and Social Guarantees of Officials and the enclosed presented package of draft laws authored by the RA Government, Vladimir Vardanyan, Artur Davtyan.
In his speech on behalf of the RA NA Armenia Faction, Aram Vardevanyan noted that the debated legislative package is a rather balanced and important initiative for the law enforcement bodies. During the period from the first to the second reading, the faction submitted a proposal, according to which, the investigator, the prosecutor who has been in office for 20 years, will be able to retire, even in cases where the latter has committed a disciplinary violation. The persons mentioned in the current regulations are deprived of that option. The proposal was accepted.
Highlighting the need for the adoption of the legislative package, it was proposed to vote for the initiative.
