A second altercation between a deputy from "We continue the change-Democratic Bulgaria" (PP-DB) and the chairperson Tsoncho Ganev led to a check of the quorum and an early termination of the session, half an hour before its regular end.
This time Alexander Simidchiev from PP-DB accused the presenter Tsoncho Ganev from "Vazrazhdane" in violation of the rules, as he ignored requests from deputies for a procedure on the manner of conducting, as well as did not respond to the procedure of his colleague Yavor Bozhankov, who had earlier asked Ganev to vacate the seat of chairing the meeting. Bozhankov called on Ganev to consider that his behavior towards him about a month ago was unacceptable and to vacate the seat until he finds a way to say that he made a mistake, and not to be proud of his behavior. I await your reaction, the MP concluded. A half-hour break was given.
Shortly after the resumption of the meeting, things happened again, but this time with Alexander Simidchiev.
When the incident with Yavor Bozhankov happened, I was a meter away from him, it had nothing to do with you, you came and pushed him away, recalled the deputy from Ganev's PP-DB. This is unworthy of a person who represents this institution, he emphasized. You continued to violate the rules, you did not respond to the procedure, you did not allow them to replace you a moment ago in the chairman's seat. A meeting cannot be conducted in this way, Simidchiev pointed out.
And you will stand on the podium, I will ask you to vacate it, Ganev replied. I will ask you to take a position on the issue I posed to you, Alexander Simidchiev turned to him and refused to vacate the podium.
Since Alexander Simidchiev refused to sit in his seat, this is happening for the second time today, I am announcing a check of the quorum, Tsoncho Ganev decided. After it turned out that 115 MPs were registered in the hall, there was no quorum and the meeting was terminated early.
