Constitutional Court

The Applicants, 12 Assembly Deputies, filed a Referral pursuant to Article 113.4 of the Constitution contending that the Assembly President put a draft strategy and decision to a vote without having the necessary quorum of Deputies, thereby violating Articles 51(1), (2) and (3) of the Rules of Procedure of the Assembly, which requires a quorum of more than 50% of the Deputies. In reply, the Assembly President advised that the vote did not produce a signed decision and that the drafts were not adopted due to a complaint about a lack of quorum, indicating that the issues would be submitted to the Assembly for consideration at a later time, The Court found that the Referral had become moot because the Assembly President had invalidated the questioned decision due to a lack of quorum and issued a Decision to Strike Out the Referral pursuant to Rule 32.4 of the Rules of Procedure
