Majlis Speaker Gholam-Ali Haddad-Adel said here Thursday that Majlis will soon invite the country's nuclear officials to explain the latest developments in Iran's nuclear case at the earliest possible time.

Haddad-Adel made the disclosure as he addressed a Majlis session to discuss a motion filed by Tehran MP Saeed Aboutaleb indicative of Majlis' serious reaction to the referral of Iran's nuclear dossier to the UN Security Council.

Aboutaleb calls for suspension of all voluntary cooperation with the nuclear watchdog based on a Majlis ratification now that Iran's case has been moved to the Council.

"All nuclear officials should appear before Majlis and be made to explain. This should take place soon," the MP demanded, to which Haddad-Adel replied that the "nuclear officials may be invited to Majlis next week."
Aboutaleb said that discussion of the issue cannot be postponed for next week. "The government should implement the Majlis ratification at the earliest possible time."
The speaker responded by saying "the law passed by Majlis has been implemented. Iran has decided it will continue its (nuclear) activities.
