| Notes |
Elections to the National Assembly were constitutionally due before the end of 2016 but were postponed. The delayed elections were due to be held before 29 July 2017 in keeping with the Constitutional Court's ruling of 22 November 2016. Following the Constitutional Court's ruling of 11 July 2017, elections to the National Assembly were to be held by April 2018. The terms of office of National Assembly members initially due to expire on 27 February 2017 were extended until the proclamation of the results of the new parliamentary elections. However, these elections have been delayed.
On 30 April 2018, the Constitutional Court took the decision to end the powers of the outgoing National Assembly (the 12th legislature). Consequently, legislative power will be represented by the Senate until the proclamation of the results of the new elections to the National Assembly. |
