Chartreuse election “on trail” for February 2

On Wednesday, the House will organize to reiterate its determination that a majority vote will be used to decide a contract amendment referendum.
MPs will unwaveringly support their claim that a simple majority vote is enough to move charter amendments, according to Nikorn Chamnong, the head of the ad-hoc House panel on the referendum bill.
Following the Senate’s earlier this week’s decision to keep two requirements for the adoption of a contract referendum: a minimal voter turnout and majority support, the meeting took place. This implies that the majority of voters must support the election and that more than 50 % of citizens must do so.
On Wednesday, Mr. Nikorn announced that the House would select 10 people to serve on a shared House-Senate council, while the Senate is scheduled to appoint 10 people to the council on October 15.
The committee will hold a meeting on October 16 through October 23 to discuss the proposed legislation and determine the required length of the bulk needed to pass a referendum on the 2017 constitution.
The costs will be forwarded to the excellent minister for distribution for royal assent if an agreement is reached by Oct. 28 and both chambers agree by that date.
The first round of the charter act referendum is likely to go as planned on February 2nd, 2014, when municipal administrative organizations are elected nationwide, according to Mr. Nikorn, if things go according to this timeline.
The Senate’s choice to keep the two conditions is expected to put off a vote on the contract update.
Mr. Nikorn expressed his hope that the House and the Senate does come to an agreement to speed up the process of enacting the contract amendments.
This is because the law act plan requires one-third of help, or 72 votes, from the Upper House, he said, adding that a discussion on the vote bill may help reduce delays or complications.
When asked about Bhumjaithai chief Anutin Charnvirakul’s assertions this week that it was more urgent than revising the contract, Mr. Nikorn responded that while it is not urgent, there is also no justification for putting it off.
The Chartthaipattana Party, according to Mr. Nikorn, is in favor of a charter update, which is a partnership policy, as well as the creation of a charter draft assembly to create a new contract to make it more equitable and widely accepted.
