The HDZ initiative for an emergency parliamentary session has not
been spurred by recent protests over surplus police, Tomcic said.
He asserted the HDZ was spreading and causing political tension in
an effort to create the impression that "nothing in the country is
right, that the incumbent authorities offer no prospects."
The HDZ wants to depose the government without elections but the
public has had enough of scandals, the parliament's head said.
Commenting on the recent increase in the prices of telephone
services, Tomcic said "the government must disclose all facts
pertaining to the transaction" with Deutsche Telekom, which has a
controlling interest in Croatian Telecom, to see if the deal
envisaged higher rates.
