- Further, the CDNS stressed the need for transfer of the former president to the prison hospital, distribution of Torah prisoners and detainees to various other prisons, and detention of Susan Thabit as well as all the members of the Policy Committee of the dissolved National Party, in order to avoid such plots.

- Furthermore, the Committee rejected the Interior Ministry statement on the Port Said disaster, and demanded the presence of a representative of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) to discuss the events..

- The CDNS held SCAF fully responsible for the latest violent events and their repercussions in the country, criticizing government top officials for being preoccupied with protecting the country's former president and his corrupt cronies.
