More over Hassan added that this action didn't satisfy the members because it only postpones the crisis for the next year without a solution.He denounced saying: "This decision is not the prerogative of the governor, but of the People's Council so we decided to take a legal action in order to revoke the resolution. Then we will demand his dismissing because he is incapable of managing properly and it is totally forbidden to take a decision of membership after the revolution".He stressed on the idea that as long as imposing taxes is reasonable and deliberate, the Chamber doesn't reject taxes or increasing it because it is the only procedure that seeks social justice.
