The Deputy Speaker of the Lebanese Parliament, Elias Bou Saab, expressed his “dissatisfaction with the repercussions” that resulted from caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati’s "ill-conceived" decision to postpone the Daylight Savings Time (DST).
“Prime Minister Mikati bears the main responsibility for the decision. The Parliament Speaker [Nabih Berri] has the right to make any request from the prime minister; but this does not entitle the PM to approve the request, or its context, in the approach that had happened...” Bou Saab told Asharq Al-Awsat, stressing that "others have the right to make an opposing request too."
