I just want to bring to your attention the possible results and feedback." "Very well, starting from today, I will announce that 6 Mps who are on business trips have given their votes for the draft. I would also like to encourage the news to be properly circulated so that our society knows that the right of a deputy who is on a business trip is protected so that he can express his opinion on the issues that being voted," said Ara Babloyan, Chairman of the NA. «ՀՀ քաղաքացիական օրենսգրքում» փոփոխությունները եւս ընդունվեցին միաձայն: And already while discussing the draft law on "Joint Stock Companies", Ara Babloyan reported in details  how many MPs voted, how many absent votes were cast, and how many votes of the MPs were not fixed due to technical problems. As a result, thie project was unanimously adopted by 93.
