Irshaidat said in
a press conference on Tuesday that the association did not agree to anything at
the meeting that was held on suggested amendments to the Implementation Law. He
added that the association may have to stop its participation in meetings of
the
Lower House Legal Committee as it continues to ignore the association’s proposals
on draft bills.
He added that the
association does not accept that its presence at committee proceedings is
ceremonial. He added that the committee did not take any of the association’s
proposals either through written submissions or orally.
Irshaidat added
that the association will resort to legal and constitutional means to confront
the amendments with the aim of preserving the Constitution and stopping the
rush to adopt laws in a manner that is unfavorable to the country and citizens.
He indicated that
despite the association’s rejection of the two draft laws as a whole, it had
made proposals in the hope of reaching consensus around them.
