Damascus, SANA – People’s Assembly on Tuesday approved the establishment of a new permanent committee under the title “families of martyrs and war victims” committee which will be responsible for taking care of families of martyrs and injured people affected by the current crisis in the country.
This step came within the framework of a number of amendments to the Assembly’s Rules of Procedure issued on June 6th, 1974, which are in line with the new Syrian Constitution.
The Assembly also approved the addition of two articles stipulating that the membership of an MP will be suspended if they violate the Constitution’s basic principles, fail to attend two full sessions in one year without permission, or commit a felony or a misdemeanor.
The other article states that the Assembly’s office will prepare a report about the MPs whose membership will be dropped and submit it to the Assembly in its first session of the year in order to look into their status.
