PEOPLE TO BE EVICTED UNDER THE LAW

The bill on Alienation of Property for the Needs of the Public and the
Government introduced by the government was the most attention-grabbing
of about ten bills discussed at the extraordinary session of
the National Assembly on July 6. As the minister of justice Davit
Harutiunyan said, the necessity to adopt such a law occurred after the
decision of the Constitutional Court, declaring the alienation of the
property of the residents of the Center of Yerevan unconstitutional.
Mainly the opposition members of parliament showed up at the discussion
of such an important bill. The majority, 60 people hardly, took care
of registering 76 people and left, proud of their job, whereas, the
opposition is dissatisfied with the bill. Namely, Victor Dallakyan
believes that this bill is a means of legalizing the illegal actions,
because Article 19 of the bill provides for continuing the alienation
of property that began before the adoption of the law under the
acting legislation, i.e. the legislation, which was defined by the
Constitutional Court as unconstitutional.
The members of parliament were surprised and angry about the hastiness
of the government. The Ministry of Justice placed the bill on its
official website a month ago, modified the bill in accordance with
the proposals offered within a month, and introduced the bill to the
National Assembly in the beginning of the extraordinary meeting.
The bill was not discussed by any committee of the National Assembly.
Considering this, another oppositionist Member of Parliament Tatul
Manaseryan suggested withdrawing the bill and introducing it to the
National Assembly in compliance with the accepted procedure.
Besides, Victor Dallakyan predicts that there will be a time when
those who are depriving people of their property will lose all they
have and will be prosecuted.
