    "content": "As a result of this technical working group, a constitutional (Amendment) Bill was developed that was named the ‘Duale Bill’ which was brought to this House. That Bill was discussed and debated and a decision was taken. The decision was that the Bill failed because it was unable to raise the two-thirds majority required to amend the Constitution to provide for nomination of an additional over 90 women to the National Assembly and 16 to the Senate. As a result of that, the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs developed its own Bill, the one that I am currently moving, dated 28th April 2015. It is sponsored by the Committee that I chair based on the proposals that had been debated or considered by the technical working group.
