Constitutional amendments and the establishment of the congressman:

Solving the Constitution and Setting the Senate: Law and the Hope of the People

by: aekdon

The Constitution is like the "supreme rule of the city house." If the common law is like a rule in the classroom, the Constitution is the rule of the whole system of schools. Therefore, amending the Constitution is not a small thing, but to "improve the system" so that society moves forward in stability.

Key principles for amending the Constitution

Supremacy belongs to the people - the amendment of the Constitution must be based on legitimacy recognized by the people, because the Constitution is the Congregation Promise.

The revision mechanism must be prudent - it must provide an opportunity for scrutiny, power and debate, not give either party a monopoly on the writing of the Covenant.

Separate political power from interest - so that the authority does not amend the Constitution for personal gain.

Establishment of a Constituent Assembly (Sat.)

The congressman is a "people's forum" built specifically to draft a new constitution, not a forum for politicians who already have interests.

The origin of the congressman.

Direct election from the people → for maximum legitimacy.

Partial recruitment (e.g. rights, religious, legal or political experts) → to obtain a diverse body of knowledge

The proportion of MPs is usually designed to reflect both the "voice of the people" and the "knowledgeable."

The structure of the congressman.

Composition - A number of members (whichever is required by law) are elected, and some from recruitment.

Sub-Commission - divides functions such as categories of rights, freedoms, independent organizations, political systems, courts and inspections.

Chairman and Coordinating Committee - Acting on the Supervision and Administration of Drafting

Implementation phase

Legislating children to establish a congressman.

Parliament must pass a law on elections and recruitment.

Election / recruitment.

The public elects members and has an independent committee directing the process.

Drafting of the Constitution

The congressman meets, establishes the structure, and sets up a sub-task force to draft each category.

Public hearing

Open a nationwide forum to hear proposals and opinions to reflect the will of the people.

Complete consideration of the draft

The congressman voted to adopt a new draft constitution.

Referendum

The people referendum whether they will agree to it, and if it is passed, it will be promulgated.

Duration of execution

Passage of the Cubs Law and Election Prep: 6-12 Months

Election / recruitment: 3-6 months

Constitutional drafting: 12-18 months (depending on complexity and debate)

Referendum: 3-4 months

In total, it can take about a few years from the start to promulgation.

Conclusion

The amendment of the Constitution and the establishment of the congressman is not only about "law," but about "hope," because it reflects in which direction the country will walk, whether it is on a covenant accepted by all parties, or on a covenant written only to preserve the power of certain groups.

The public may not understand every clause, but the easy thing to understand is...

"A good constitution. Must make a little man feel that he stands in this country with dignity."
