House Speaker, Nabih Berri, on Wednesday confirmed that the parliamentary elections will take place on time, stressing "polls will be staged without any doubt."


Speaker Berri's fresh words came during Wednesday gathering with MPs, with whom he discussed details related to the electoral law, especially articles 284 and 295.


Berri noted that in the case the biometric card was not available, there is a clear text in the election law stipulating the application of the identity card or the travel passport instead.


The Speaker said that he forwarded the biometric card project law to concerned parliamentary committees.


Berri stressed once again that all contracts must be subject to the Tender Management in accordance with the set rules
