Senators warn to reject any bill by MPs after 1st of Saratan
Senate members called resumption of members of the Lower House of Parliament against the law.
The House of Elders asked the National Unity Government to specify the parliamentary election due date and find a lawful solution for resumption of members of the House of People for the purpose of their legitimacy; otherwise, they will not approve any bill being send to them by the lower house.
“The government must determine the parliamentary election date, we will not approve any bill we receive,” Senate Speaker, Fazel Hadi Muslimyar
Afghan Constitution says,” The work period of the House of People shall terminate, after the disclosure of the results of the elections, on the 1st of Saratan of the fifth year and the new parliament shall commence work”.
According to the law parliamentary election was supposed to be held 30-60 days prior to the expiration of the term of the House of People, but now only 12 days left for termination of the House of People work period.
“If they do not held elections, we will not approve any bill we receive from the House of Representatives, we will be the partner in their betrayal, a legal solution must be searched; otherwise, we will not recognize them because they are illegal,” Zalmay Zabuli, senator added.
At the same time a number of senators insist that the government will lose legitimacy if MPs lose legitimacy.
“The government has failed to perform its duties on elections. If the parliament lost its legitimacy; the government will lose legitimacy too,” Hassanyar senator said.
Hanif Hanafi, another member of the Senate House, demanded: “The President and the Chief Executive must specify the date of elections, if a part of the legislative organ act as acting lawmakers, the system will lose legitimacy.”
These statements come after the lower House Speaker, Abdul Rauf Ebrahimi warned on Tuesday session saying, they will not allow any organ decide about their legitimacy after 22nd of June and they will continue as long as the government have not organized parliamentary elections.
