The July 3 sitting of Parliament could not take place as the quorum was not present. Only the Socialist and Democratic MPs came to the assembly hall. Prime Minister Ion Chicu also came as he was to present the bills for which the Government assumed responsibility before Parliament, IPN reports.

There were 49 MPs of the 101 in the hall. MPs Ilan Șor, Ștefan Gațcan and Vladimir Andronache and those of the PPPDA, PAS, Pro Moldova and the Shor Party were absent.

“Regrettably, I see that our colleagues from the other side continue to boycott the sittings. That’s why I ascertain the lack of quorum. The sitting wasn’t opened. Thank you for participation,” said Speaker Zinaida Grechanyi.

The date of the next sitting will be decided by the Standing Bureau that will convene next week.

As the opposition MPs didn’t show up, Premier Chicu could not present the bills for which the Government assumed responsibility before the legislative body.
