Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri on Wednesday reiterated that “the formation of a government has become more than a necessity,” warning over the economic situation in the country.
“There won't be a problem over the ministerial policy statement after the formation of the government, because its main lines will be based on the statement of the current government,” Berri told lawmakers during the weekly Ain el-Tineh meeting.
MPs also quoted Berri as saying that he could call for a legislative session that would be held before the end of this month.
“He invited the Parliament Bureau to convene tomorrow to this end and noted that around 40 draft laws and proposals are ready to be listed on the agenda of the aforementioned session,” lawmakers said.
