Mahiliou MPs awake only after appeals to the Parliament and the prosecutor's office
The members of the
House of Representatives Aliaksandr Razganau and Eduard Siankevich
submitted their answers to the collecctive appeals of the Mahiliou
citizens concerning the initiation of hte Law “On Public Hearings”
by the Belarusian Social Democratic Party (Hramada) only in 3.5
months.
A member of the central committee of the BSDP Leanid
Padbiaretski shares his impressions about the work of the work of the
MPs:
“These deputies are not only reluctant to listen to
the people, they do not even consider it necessary to provide answers
in accordance with the Law "On applications of citizens".
Having become MPs, these individuals have simply forgotten the
people. Let us think how to hold them accountable for failing to
answer the appeal of 500 Mahiliou citizens, whose signatures were
submitted to them on 9 June.
Meanwhile, the General
Prosecutor's Office and the the Ethics Commission of the House of
Representatives to which Aliaksei Paulouski, Leanid Padbiaretski and
Dzmitry Yaustratau have appealed the actions of the MPs, still
haven't given any answer.
“There is no reaction of the
structures and institutions to which we filed our appeals. If we
don't receive any answers from them soon, we will write requrests to
provide information as to how the MPs were punished for the violation
of the Law “On applications of citizens”, says Leanid
Padbiaretski.
It should be noted that all members of
Parliament who have received signatures of the Mahiliou citizens,
didn't see any need for the adoption of the new Law "On Public
Hearings" that would unify the existing terminology with regard
to the public hearings held in Belarus, define in detail the
procedure of holding public hearings, the sphere of action of the
law, its territorial spread and the cases of its use.
It
should be noted that the Mahiliou MPs Ihar Stankevich and Uladzimir
Vasilenka have sent timely denials to the Mahiliou citizens whose
interests they formally represent at the Parliament.
