Tunis/Tunisia — The end of the meeting of parliamentary bloc presidents, which took place at the Bardo Palace on Monday afternoon, saw strong opposition from participants at the time of the review of the draft motion tabled on 8 June by President of the Free Destourian Party (PDL) Abir Moussi.
In this sense, president of the Ennahdha bloc Noureddine Bhiri accused the president of the PDL group of "hindering the smooth running of parliamentary action and working for the execution of foreign agendas".
For his part, head of the "Qalb Tounes" bloc Osama Khelifi said the meeting reviewed "proposals on the completion of the composition of the Constitutional Court".
According to a press release from the parliament, some parliamentary bloc presidents stressed "the need to amend Rule 141 of the HPR's Rules of Procedure", in the light of the request of "most participants who consider that there is excessive use of the motions mechanism, which is now becoming a divisive issue".
The chairs of parliamentary blocs were invited to consult among themselves and to choose consensus candidates who will then be elected at a plenary session, the same source added.
