The requirements set by Girchi are as follows:

Restitution – in accordance with the points agreed with the opposition.

Girchi notes that if they have to stay in boycott mode, none of the party members will receive a parliamentarian’s salary or party funding, nor will they participate in parliamentary activities, but they will enjoy parliamentary immunity, the right to bear arms and they will maintain the right to stand with the press banner of the Parliament building.
