Debate on making election trial by Committee perpetual
A long debate in the Great Assembly centers on extending the temporary act that allows committees to try controverted elections. Supporters argue it preserves parliamentary rights and curbs bribery, while opponents fear improper duration and unsure outcomes. The division ends with 250 in favor and 122 against to leave in a bill making the act perpetual.
