Election Session... and Minor Amendments!

The House of Representatives held a general session today to elect two secretaries and three commissioners, as well as members of parliamentary committees. The old composition was largely maintained in the committees with 5 minor amendments:

Akram Shehadeh instead of Hadi Abou Hassan in the Agriculture Committee

Bilal Al-Hachimi instead of Ibrahim Al-Mousawi in the Human Rights Committee

Halimeh Kaakour instead of Ibrahim Kanaan in the Administration and Justice Committee

Najwa Aoun instead of Ashraf Baydoun after Baydoun withdrew from the Technology Committee

Haider Nasser instead of the late MP Ghassan Skaf in the Health Committee

The secretaries of the Bureau of the Parliament, MPs Alain Aoun and Hadi Abou Hassan, were retained, along with the three commissioners of the Bureau: MPs Michel Moussa, Hagop Pakradounian, and Abdel Karim Kabbara.
