NEW MAJORITY GOING TO RESTORE LIVE CASTING OF PARLIAMENT SITTINGS
Chisinau, August 28 ( INFOTAG ). The new parliamentary majority is intending to return to the Communists-buried practice of live broadcasting parliament's plenary sittings, majority party leaders stated in the forum on Friday.
The majority has already prepared a draft of parliamentary Resolution to that effect, and was going to adopt it straightaway today. However, Liberal Democratic Party leader MP Vlad Filat remarked it would be correct to return to the draft after parliamentary Standing Committees are formed.
Besides, Filat suggested that the National Television should give one hour of the prime time tonight to let parliamentary parties inform citizens about the latest events.
He received support by Speaker Mihai Ghimpu, who stated, "Time has come at last for the television to begin informing, not manipulating the public opinion".
Democratic Party Chairman Marian Lupu proposed that the next plenary sitting of parliament, due on September 2, should be cast live over the National Television.
Both proposals were unanimously voted for by the parliamentary majority.

URECHEAN CALLS ALL MPs TO COLLABORATION
Chisinau, August 28 ( INFOTAG ). "We [the majority coalition] shall be working shoulder to shoulder with those parliamentarians who really want to make Moldova a prosperous democratic state. Time has passed when the Communist Party felt free to take decisions all by itself", Moldova Noastra Alliance leader Serafim Urechean stated in parliament today.
He addressed to the Alliance for European Integration parties with a call for taking all decisions jointly in order to avoid undesirable compromising situations.
"The election of Speaker should be regarded as the AEI's first step of such kind. Nowadays we are in the majority, while the Communists are in the minority. We had been in opposition for long 8 years, during which the state power machine had pressed on us day and night. But nevertheless we have managed to overthrow the Communist rule by joint effort", Urechean said.
He said that from the very first plenary sitting to the very last, the majority coalition ought to work as one good team. The majority must constantly observe the wishes of all voters of Moldova, for "the Moldovan society has been living in a constant strain in anticipation of such kind of changes, which the country did now see throughout last 18 years".
