The joint committees (Finance and Budget, Administration and Justice, Education, Higher Education, Culture, Public Works, Transport, Energy and Water Committees) dedicated a session chaired by the Vice President of Parliament, Elie Ferzli, who said: “The discussion turned around two main themes: the first concerned the student dollar and students who were studying abroad. And there are many difficulties that their children face in sending them the necessary funds to continue their education abroad.The deputies made the decision to force the banks to pay an amount of money related to the facilitation of their affairs. students, in accordance with the specific conditions mentioned in the law in detail.
After the session, he added: “The second issue is related to the results of the sinister explosion in the port of Beirut, which caused great damage to people’s lives and property and is the proposal of a law to protect the affected areas as a consequence. of the explosion in the port of Beirut. The important thing in the matter is that all the representatives in Beirut of all currents, parties and tendencies have agreed on a text that was confirmed by the deputies in the joint commissions and we ratified it quickly to join the rest of the laws that will be studied on Wednesday and ratified and approved in the General Assembly headed by Nabih Berri. With her permission, these two laws were attached to the agenda for approval on Wednesday. I think that today’s achievement was important in terms of making life easier for the Lebanese as much as possible, at a time when they are suffering what they are suffering.
Regarding the position of French President Emmanuel Macron, Ferzli said: “This is an issue that needs discussion. We must highly value the intention of the French president to promote the search for solutions, and thus contribute the results of his activity to promote the reconstruction process, especially in the capital, Beirut. The issue is constitutional in the country. The truth is that I see that the problem is Lebanese, I do not see it in France. The Lebanese vision of the constitution and the interpretation of constitutional articles, there is no country in the world that does not have a criterion of stability, the constitutional standard is the basis. In other matters that you consider not suitable for you, this is not allowed. Then there are some parliamentary figures and some former prime ministers who speak of a prime minister assisted by a task force.
He continued: “After Taif, there are no more ministers to help the prime minister. The Council of Ministers is the governing reference in the country after it acquired the powers of the President of the Republic. Like the prime minister, a minister is a ruler. The life of the Council of Ministers is linked to its name, work, existence and does not resign, so it is not allowed for the work team to be convened, that is, to select the work team. If we accept an argument about the integrity of the investigation and the objectivity of his right to select, he will contact the parliamentary blocs to gain confidence, with the logic that the outside wants to use to impose this or that approach to the parliamentary blocs. Everyone must be deterred and go in the direction of the true constitutional standard, and when the Lebanese are willing to adhere to the true constitutional standard, then neither the President of France, nor the President of the United States, nor the President of China will be able to attack the Lebanese with the standard that they must trust, because the Lebanese have a very great responsibility in how to approach the constitutional question. When the Lebanese becomes the one who incites abroad to abuse the constitution, let’s hope for everything. This is very dangerous “.
And he added: “As for we explain the words of the French president as a positive interpretation, and we see in it an incentive to continue working to save the country and not go to civil war.” He used this expression clearly and this is what attracted and inspired me who has the responsibility to push things in this direction, and who was in the direction of opposing this trend of going to civil war. Yes, all Lebanese have the responsibility in one way or another and, of course, the political class has the responsibility. But the foreigner must be attracted to the fact that his entry into the country must be the constitution. Even a foreigner who wants to serve the country if he does not comply with the constitutional rules is impossible to serve the country. I believe in the intention and will of His Excellency the French President to serve Lebanon and to move things in a positive direction.
He said, “The norm is the constitution. Go back to it and solve the problem.” At this point, I call on the President of the Republic to go immediately to carry out parliamentary consultations immediately and for things to go in the direction of the democratic game to the maximum at the parliamentary level, whatever the results. Regardless of the consequences that may arise, the existence of prior conditions may not be submitted to anyone, either by assignment, consultation or authorship. The House of Representatives and the parliamentary blocs must go in the direction of launching the democratic parliamentary game to the maximum, when neither the French president nor any other president can but respect the constitutional will and the constitutional text that the Lebanese respected. And if the Lebanese people do not want their constitution to be respected, why do they want to ask the foreigner to respect the constitution?
He concluded: “The committees also approved 300 billion of the amount that had been approved, which is the proposal for a law to support public and private schools.”
