MP Ts.Shinebayar, representative of the group that wants to take the name MPRP, told a press conference that his request to speak at the opening of the Spring session of Parliament had been rejected by Speaker D.Demberel on the ground that the law permits only the Speaker to address the opening of any session. The President is the only other person who can give a speech if he wants.

Shinebayar told journalists that the present Parliament has no true opposition and thus cannot criticize the Government. He added that Parliament cannot fight corruption but fights with the Chief of the Anti Corruption Authority. Shinebayar has decided to spend most of the present session away from Parliament but among the people. He will write an open letter to President Elbegdorj.
