Iran’s parliament voted Sunday to expedite consideration of a bill that would remove the requirement that the country's intelligence minister be qualified in Islamic jurisprudence (ijtihad).

The motion received 192 votes in favor, 49 against and four abstentions among 247 lawmakers present.

The proposal had initially been scheduled for a two-urgency vote. Ebrahim Azizi, head of parliament’s national security committee, proposed a single-urgency vote to allow time for expert review.
