/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia’s National Assembly Thursday hosted
discussions over Republican Party representative David Harutyunyan’s
draft decision on vesting State and Legal Affairs Committee with
the authority of monitoring the implementation of the final report
submitted by the interim committee investigating March 1, 2008
incidents.

Draft decision was met with the protest of "Heritage" faction,
particularly its leader Stepan Safaryan, who expressed doubts as to
the ruling party’s impartiality. He called on MPs to support ARFD’s
proposal on creating a separate committee dealing with monitoring
issues.

Nonetheless, the country’s supreme legislative body approved the
decision.
