In reply to the question to the majority party whether following the ad hoc lifting the normal procedure of lifting of immunity would be employed for new cases, the delegation was informed that new cases would simply not be dealt with and that prosecution had to wait until the end of the mandate of the deputies. This means that the difference of treatment between the deputies, whose immunity was lifted by the force of the Amendment, and those, whose case will be transmitted later, is de facto even bigger. While for the 139 deputies, immunity was lifted without an individual procedure and without the guarantees provided by this procedure, for new cases the lifting of immunity will probably not be examined at all and the deputies concerned would thus be completely shielded against prosecution during their mandate.
