The chairman of the parliamentary group of the Movement for Rights and Freedom (DPS), Delyan Peevski, has asked Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov and the government for full information on what has been done in relation to implementing priorities.
In a letter distributed by the DPS press center, Peevski states that "the times of working in the dark and of unprincipled agreements are over." "We want the prime minister and the Council of Ministers led by him to understand the clear place of the executive power in the parliamentary republic, that they owe an account for their work and that this accountability happens through and in front of the parliament," Peevski said, adding that "this is the model for work in the future". DPS would publish every response received so that people can evaluate what has been done.
