Head of the Mustaqbal bloc MP Fouad Saniora stressed on Saturday the need to respect the constitution and avoid violating, while rejecting the “approval of new practices that would create confusion at cabinet.”
He said during a seminar in the southern city of Sidon: “Such measures have already rendered the government incapable of exercising its duties towards the citizens.”
“We should adhere to the constitution and avoid new practices that we may regret in the future,” he said.
Saniora explained that the constitution stipulates how the cabinet should take decisions in the presence of a president and in his absence.
