The council of Parliament’s presiding officers decided how to complete the procedure with the first government forming mandate

The Parliament will end the procedure with the first mandate for forming a government by voting to reject Plamen Nikolov's candidacy for Prime Minister in the draft cabinet, Maya Manolova of “Rise up BG! We are Coming!” said after the second meeting of presiding officials of the National Assembly, convened on August 11 in an attempt to find a solution to the situation resulting from TISP’s party leader Slavi Trifonov’s announcement that his proposal for a government was being withdrawn.

"After hearing the experts of the Presidency and all parliamentary groups, we united around the decision to end the constitutional procedure clearly and unambiguously by submitting a draft decision, which will be voted on tomorrow, August 12, in plenary. It will take into account the fact that the candidate for Prime Minister for personal reasons withdrew his nomination ", explained Maya Manolova.

She explained that the National Assembly will vote "in favour". According to her, there is no one who would insist that someone be elected prime minister if he himself does not want to.

"An absurd situation has arisen, but can the Constitution assume that 24 hours before the vote, the nominated Prime Minister will refuse to be Prime Minister," Manolova said.

Nikolay Hadzhigenov from "Rise up BG! We are Coming!" the decision was made, which the practicing lawyers expressed in the morning, that "there must be a final act of the meeting and it must be decided and voted and this must take place in a debate hall"

"This will happen tomorrow morning, probably as the first item on the agenda, so that we can prepare a draft decision and make it as literate as possible," Hadzhigenov said.

"The President's act is final, stable and from now on the ball is with us. This is our act and we cannot escape the responsibility to do what the assembly has to do to finalize the procedure. This precedent must be played very carefully, that is why it ia a precedent because it creates a new law," he added.

Desislava Atanasova from GERB said that they have decided to have a project to be considered by the National Assembly, because according to Art. 86 of the Constitution, the National Assembly may take decisions, vote on laws, vote on declarations or make appeals. She also confirmed that the act should in any case be a draft decision to be voted on and would be the first item on tomorrow's plenary agenda.
