The initiative posted on Manabalss.lv emphasized that members of parliament are elected to make decisions, not to avoid them, however, the current Rules of Procedure allow members to not only vote "for" or "against", but also to abstain from voting.
Iniciatīvas pieteikumā uzsvērts, ka Saeimas deputāti tiek ievēlēti, lai pieņemtu lēmumus, nevis izvairītos no tiem, taču patlaban Saeimas Kārtības rullis ļauj deputātiem ne tikai balsot "par" vai "pret" lēmumiem, bet arī "atturēties".
