The time is shrinking day by day and the electoral bill, submitted to the Executive on July 2, has not yet been submitted to Parliament for consideration and ratification. Legal Advisers to the President Martelly continues the careful analysis of 246 articles in this bill. As was recently explained the Head of State "[...] We need to take the necessary time.

Moreover, it suggests that you initiate consultations with the vital sectors of the Nation [...] to bring back the national cohesion and lift, among other, any hypothec or ambiguous calling into question the immediate holding of elections, the independence and balance of powers, the absolute respect of the elected terms, like yours own [...]" See also : https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-9037-haiti-elections-electoral-law-president-martelly-provided-explanations.html https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-8986-haiti-elections-the-electoral-law-still-not-transmitted-to-parliament.html https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-8924-haiti-elections-the-executive-has-finally-received-the-preliminary-draft-of-the-electoral-law.html S/ HaitiLibre
