Mali – Constitutional reform approved by National Assembly

Mali’s process of constitutional reform has moved one step closer. Last week, the National Assembly approved the reform bill by 141 votes in favour to three against with one abstention.

The text of the bill was presented in a previous post. There is a report that 28 amendments were made to the original bill. However, up to now, I do not have the text of the final version of the bill. From what I can gather, though, the amendments were minor.

The changes will now be put to a referendum.
