Following a recommendation by the Constitutional Review Committee for Members of Parliament to be elected in accordance with the system of Proportional Representation, the Government yesterday accepted this recommendation.

In the White Paper published yesterday, the SLPP led Government of President Dr Julius Maada Bio said,

“Government accepts this recommendation of having Members of Parliament to be elected in accordance with the system of Proportional Representation as bye-elections have been held at a great cost to the economy, peace and security of the nation. However, the threshold should be left to the Electoral Commission to work out and not stated in the Constitution”.
