Parliament discusses questioning of National Salvation Government

SANAA, April 29 (YPA) – The Parliament discussed in its session on Sunday, and in presence of Head and members of the National Salvation Government, a request to question the government submitted by the parliamentarian, Abdu Beshr.

At the session, Speaker of the Parliament, Yahya al-Raei, pointed out that summoning of the government by the parliament is not to hold it accountable or to monitor its mistakes, but to help it overcome the difficulties and negativities facing its work.

Beshr said that his questioning request addressed to the government comes out of concern for the public money and how to employ it to meet the people’s requirements and to eliminate corruption and imbalances.

Prime Minister Abdul-Aziz bin Habtoor expressed his thanks to the parliament’s speaker and members for calling the government to answer the questions raised by Beshr.

“We are before challenges facing the Yemeni people and the issues are limited and will be answered by the concerned ministers,” bin Habtoor said.

The premier called for forming a joint parliamentary-government committee to study the questioning and reply to what it contained.

In its session, the parliament approved the formation of the joint committee from the concerned parties of the two sides under the chairmanship of deputy speaker of the parliament, Abdul Salam Saleh Hashwal, to consider what is mentioned in this topic.
