Information Minister Tareq Mitri said the committee drafting a policy statement accomplished most of its mission and would tackle on Friday major national issues.
Controversial topics were not tackled during the committee”s seventh session on Thursday, Mitri told reporters after the meeting.
He was apparently referring to the issue of Hizbullah weapons and related topics.
Mitri said the committee has "accomplished most" of its mission and agreed on a joint approach to several topics such as the disappearance of Imam Moussa al-Sadr and his two comrades, the central fund for the displaced, the council for south Lebanon, compensation for the 2006 Israeli war victims and issues related to women activities.
A reliable source told Naharnet that discussion of the thorny topic of Hizbullah weapons was suspended for the day pending consultations between committee members and leaders of their respective political factions.
Mitri said the committee would convene on Friday to tackle "major national topics."
