Arguing that it has a series of questions for members of the I. Šimonytė government, the opposition proposed to postpone the approval of the program until Tuesday next week.
“The Labor Party faction believes this is too short a time and proposes to postpone it to Tuesday’s agenda,” Vigilijus Jukna, the largest of the Labor Party faction, said in the Seimas.
Aušrinė Norkienė, the eldest of the “peasant” faction, also supported him.
“We are really determined to approve the program on Tuesday,” said the major of the LVŽS faction. It was seconded by another “peasant”: Jonas Jarutis, who was appointed vice president of Seimas last week.
“The desire of the ruling majority to do this as soon as possible is understandable, but when the Statute of the Seimas foresees 10 days … It is possible to overcome it in 3 days, but … When we hear the responses of future ministers today, we see that the ministers The answers were really unsatisfactory, “said the” peasant. ” Like other members of the opposition, he highlighted support for the approval of the government program to be held on Tuesday next week.
Social Democrat Algirdas Sysas was also skeptical about the government’s desire to pass the government’s program as soon as possible.
“The government program can be considered for 10 days. We suggest 10 days not to consider, but you want 2 days. There have not been such registrations yet. Dear Jurgi (Razma – ELTA), listen and really look at our possibilities, because we have that right “, said.
Finally, the position of the rulers was explained by the conservative leader Gabriel Landsberg. The politician argued that the decision to postpone the consideration of the government’s program for next week is dangerous.
“It just came to our attention then. We really agreed with the president of Seimas that we will answer as many questions as necessary. It is regrettable that the opposition has not found the opportunity to come and stay, to listen to the answers we are trying to give. willing to allow as much time as possible for the opposition to have the opportunity to ask questions. Would it be tomorrow or would it be Thursday? (…) On Friday morning, the opposition can be given time again for the ministers to speak But, my dear, if we do not form a government for one more weekend, which will begin to function, we will look ridiculous, we will look dangerous ”, G. Landsbergis addressed the members of the Seimas.
Finally, after the Seimas members voted, it was decided that the government program would return to the Seimas on Friday.
