Constituent Assembly Secretary-General: Consensus Means National Charter for All

Dr. Amr Darrag, Secretary General of the Constituent Assembly (CA) entrusted with drafting Egypt’s new Constitution, affirmed that more than 90% of the CA’s members attend every session of the panel.

"A generally good atmosphere of national accord permeates CA meetings. This will certainly lead to the finalization of the Constitution."

In press statements, Dr. Darrag said that everyone feels CA representation is fair and balanced and very harmonious, comprising representatives for each component of the country’s population.

"Everyone has put aside their ideology or party robe and are now focusing on the drafting of a constitution acceptable to everyone and a national charter for all Egyptians.

"We will persuade undecided CA members to stay on. This consensus will continue until the completion of the drafting of all articles of the new Constitution."
