Samdech Heng Samrin will lead the first NA Session
Cambodia - A senior official of Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) told
reporters in a press briefing at the National Assembly building on the
afternoon of August 10 that the first session of the National Assembly will be
summoned and opened under the Supreme Royal Presidency of His Majesty Norodom
Sihamoni, King of Cambodia.
“There is no need to have the quorum for opening the first
Session of the Fifth Legislature of the National Assembly; so even if the
elected members of the opposition Cambodia National Election Party will not
attend it, the National Assembly will be able to convene without any obstacles,”
said Mr. Chheang Vun, member of the CPP Permanent Committee.
Mr. Chheang Vun stated that after His Majesty the King opens
the session, the National Assembly will continue the session under the
chairmanship of a dean who will be Samdech Akka Moha Punhea Chakrei Heng
Samrin, elected National Assembly member for Kampong Cham Constituency, to announce
the validity of all elected 123 lawmakers.
“This meeting will not need the quorum,” he said, underlining
that the National Assembly will later need the 50+1 quorum which equals to 63
lawmakers to vote to approve its internal regulation before beginning its
process.
Then all the NA members will be sworn in at the Royal Palace;
after that the 5th Legislature National Assembly will approve its
structure and create the 5th term Royal Government by a package vote
as stipulated under Article 3 of the Constitution, he said, adding that only
50+1 votes will be needed for the adoption.
