    EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT DELEGATION TO THE PARLIAMENTARY COOPERATION COMMITTEES EU-ARMENIA, EU-AZERBAIJAN AND EU-GEORGIA INFORMATION NOTE ON THE WORK OF THE DELEGATION TO THE EU-ARMENIA, EU-AZERBAIJAN AND EU-GEORGIA PARLIAMENTARY COOPERATION COMMITTEES DIRECTORATE-GENERAL FOR EXTERNAL POLICIES OF THE UNION ______________ 5 June 2014/rev.030714 PK/fc 1 INTRODUCTION Our bilateral relations: where we stand The relations between the European Parliament and the parliaments of the three South Caucasus countries- Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia - are currently conducted within the framework of bilateral Partnership and Cooperation Agreements, which all entered into force in July 1999. This framework vis-à-vis Azerbaijan and Armenia is not expected to change in the short term. On the other hand, the EU-Georgia Association Agreement, which features an ambitious Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement dimension, was signed on 27 June 2014 and is now likely to enter in provisional application before November 2014. This will lead to the further intensification of structured parliamentary dialogue with Georgian legislators in particular, reflecting the clear progress seen in EU-Georgia relations these last few years. EU cooperation and financial assistance to the country (see below) further reflects this fact. This said, the standing PCAs have all already initiated formal interparliamentary cooperation – with three Parliamentary Cooperation Committees exercising parliamentary control over their implementation. Each PCC has the right to receive information from the Cooperation Council and the Cooperation Committee set by the respective PCA: PCCs can also adopt recommendations addressed to the competent Cooperation Committees. The EP-Georgia PCC should however be replaced, before 2015, by an EU-Georgia Parliamentary Association Committee, in order to perform the joint democratic scrutiny function over the proceedings of the Association Council which will be established by the EU-Georgia AA/DCFTA.

  • Here the Same Person Could Be a Member of the Constitutional Court for 40 Years Has Also Been Eliminated
    “Honorable National Assembly President, Distinguished Vice-Presidents, Dear National Assembly Members, Dear People, Proud Citizens of the Republic of Armenia, The applicable Constitution of the Republic of Armenia provides for a model of the Constitutional Court that is widely regarded by international experts as balanced. The essence of this model is as follows: Candidates for three Constitutional Court judges are nominated by the President of the Republic, the Government, the General Assembly of Judges, the election is made by the National Assembly, and the Constitutional Court becomes the upper instance for balancing between the three branches of power. At the same time, the new constitution has two important nuances. Unlike the former Constitution, the RA President in office cannot be a member of any party, judges cannot be partisans either, and given the fact that the Speaker of the National Assembly has been deprived of the right or is not entitled to nominate a judge for the Constitutional Court, we can state that the risks of politicization of the Constitutional Court are mitigated as much as possible in the applicable Constitution. The risks for the Constitutional Court Chairman to exercise pressure on the Constitutional Court are also mitigated, because unlike the previous one, the Constitutional Court Chairman is elected for a six-year term, not for life. In addition, a CC judge may be elected president of the court only once. In addition, unlike the previous Constitution, the President of the Constitutional Court is elected by the judges of the Constitutional Court and not by the National Assembly. In addition, the abnormal practice where the same person could be a member of the Constitutional Court for 40 years has also been eliminated.

    Parliamentary Assembly Assemblée parlementaire Doc. 10027 12 January 2004 Honouring of obligations and commitments by Armenia Report Committee on the Honouring of Obligations and Commitments by Member States of the Council of Europe Rapporteurs: Mr René André, France, Group of the European People’s Party, and Mr Jerzy Jaskiernia, Poland, Socialist Group Summary 2003 has been a busy electoral year for Armenia and as a result no further progress has been made in the current reforms. Nevertheless, since September 2003, undeniable efforts by Armenian authorities are once more showing a real political will to making progress towards honouring obligations and commitments which Armenia entered into : it abolished the death penalty, adopted a new Criminal Code, adopted a law on the Ombudsman, created an alternative military and civilian service, adopted a law on the mass media and a law on freedom of information and revised the law on radio and television broadcasting, and honoured all its commitments with regard to conventions. However, the Monitoring Committee cannot but express its profound disappointment at the conduct of the presidential and parliamentary elections held in 2003 which gave rise to serious irregularities and massive fraud. The Monitoring Committee also expects further subs tantial progress as regards the functi oning of the judicial system and the independence of the judiciary, the situation in Armenian prisons and the conditions of detention, the misconduct of law enforcement officials , freedom of demonstration, the revision of the Administrative Code, the revision of the Electoral Code, media pluralism, increased local self-government, the fight against corruption, and the respect of religious freedom .
