Speaker Nabih Berri said the Parliament would exercise its monitoring role in full.
Berri will call for two parliamentary sessions in the first half of March, one to elect the Supreme Council for the trial of presidents and ministers, and another legislative session to ratify stringent laws, MPs, who met with the speaker on Wednesday, quoted him as saying.
They said that his decision came after consulting Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri.
Berri added that he would hold a “monitoring session” in the second half of March as part of monthly monitoring sessions.
“There is no insult at all in summoning any minister for accountability or investigation into any file,” the speaker said, according to the deputies.
On the issue of arbitrary appointments in public authorities, Berri stressed that the government must adopt the mechanisms followed in the past, highlighting the need for law enforcement in this context.
