Former CCR president Augustin Zegrean explained to DC News whether the presidents of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate can be elected today.
The first session of the new Parliament started on Monday at 12:00. Immediately, a rumor spread that the Liberals would want the election of Ludovic Orban as president of the Chamber of Deputies, starting today.
Contact by DC News, former CCR president Augustin Zegrean said that “Presidents of the Houses of today cannot be elected.”
“Today, the session is chaired by the oldest deputy or one of the oldest deputies, assisted by two secretaries from the younger deputies,” Augustin Zegrean told DC News, noting that “the Senate is the same.” .
Augustin Zegrean also told us that “presidents are elected only after the oath is taken.”
„The first step is to validate the mandate, create a Validation Commission. This Validation Commission verifies all the files of the parliamentarians sent there and prepares a report that must be voted on by the plenary session. If I propose invalidation or validation … There have been cases where invalidation has been proposed, so it is not formal. Once 50% + 1 is validated, they can begin to take the oath and then elect ”, added the former CCR president.
What is happening to the parliamentarians who did not attend the first session today?
As for the new parliamentarians who did not appear today, in the first meeting, the former president of the CCR Augustin Zegrean specified that “they will leave at another time.”
“The regulations do not speak of taking an oath online because it was not the case until now. Now they will decide what to do. It’s not a drama if you don’t go today. There were other situations in which they did not come the first day, their file is there, it is validated, they will take an oath when they come. The idea is that, until there is half plus one of the total and they do not take an oath, they cannot work ”, concluded Augustin Zegrean.
