HoR votes against participation of High Council of State in approving new Libyan government

The Libyan House of Representatives (HoR) voted on Tuesday to exclude the High Council of State (HCS) from playing a part in approving a new government to replace the current Government of National Unity (GNU). 

The HoR Speaker, Aqila Saleh, announced that the votes of the members were 30 to 21 in favor of preventing the HCS from participating in recommending a new prime minister. 

Saleh also proposed conditions to the candidacy for the new government’s prime minister position, including 25 recommendations from HoR members, having no dual citizenship, and abstaining from running for presidential elections.
