Parliament Rejects Constitutional Court Opinion After Anti-Corruption Agency Denies Speaker’s Allegation

The day’s actions underscore a struggle over institutional boundaries.

Overview

  • ATG issued a formal statement rejecting the Speaker’s claim that 20 investigators were assembled to target party members, citing the anti‑corruption law’s ban on interference and urging an end to politicization.
  • Speaker D. Amarbayasgalan’s press‑briefing assertion about alleged investigator actions remains a disputed claim without corroboration from the agency.
  • Parliament voted not to accept the Constitutional Court’s April opinion on election‑law wording that would void ballots marked for fewer candidates than the district’s seats, with 88 members voting and 49 backing the committee’s recommendation to refuse it.
  • Prime Minister G. Zandanshatar marked the government’s first 100 days by promoting a Digital First agenda, including a Virtual Zone to support IT industry, a national big‑data and AI strategy, and the launch of e‑Mongolia 5.0 with plans to fully digitize e‑receipt services.
  • Public‑health organizers announced a World Heart Day event on September 27 at the National Garden in Ulaanbaatar, highlighting hypertension’s major share of cardiovascular disease and offering screenings and education.
