Speaker Nabih Berri is exerting efforts to convince the rival parliamentary blocs to attend an upcoming parliamentary session that mainly Christian lawmakers oppose amid the absence of a head of state.

The agenda of the session was distributed to lawmakers, An Nahar newspaper reported on Thursday.

It reportedly includes eight articles that will be placed to voting.

However, the date of the session hasn’t been set yet, the daily said.

Sources told the newspaper that the stance of the Christian parties over the controversial session varies.
