MPs request emergency session on national issues
Fifty-six members of the People's Assembly called for the convening of an extraordinary general session during the parliamentary recess to discuss the country's social, economic, and service-related issues, with the attendance of ministers. This request comes in response to the increasing outages of electricity and water, shortages of basic commodities, and rising prices. The deputies aim to hold the executive authority accountable for the deterioration of services and the recurrence of crises, while also providing information to the public. They emphasize that the constitution allows for such sessions to be held during recess upon the request of the President of the Republic or one-third of the members. This includes more than one-third of the current 152 deputies, and is seen as a step toward addressing crises that have gone beyond temporary disturbances, assigning responsibility to the government for crisis management and for responding to the citizens' needs.
