YEREVAN.- Armenian parliament approved on Wednesday bill amending “Regulations of the Armenian National Assembly” in the second reading. The bill concerning formation of the Parliament Committee on Ethics was approved with a vote of 70 for and six against.

Member of ARF Dashnaktsutyun Vahan Hovhannisyan said they voted against the bill. Given the number of the votes, it can be assumed that other parliamentary groups – Armenian National Congress, Prosperous Armenia and Heritage – did not participate in the vote.

The amendments suggest Republican Party of Armenia will have two votes in the committee, other groups - one vote each.
