Libyan parliamentary sources confirmed that members of the Constitutional Committee arrived in Cairo on Sunday to complete the consultations on the constitutional path.
About 15 representatives from the High State Council (HSC) were supposed to participate with 15 representatives from Parliament, but some members of HSC did not travel to Cairo, due to their objection to the formation of the Parliament Committee, as some of them were seeking the participation of members of the Tripoli Parliament.
Sources from the constitution’s founding body confirmed that "attendance was limited to the two highest delegations of the state and parliament, and none of the members of the body who attended the last time will participate."
A member of the legal committee emanating from the political dialogue, Abdul Qadir Hawili said that the committee continues to discuss proposals on the constitutional basis for the upcoming elections.
In press statements, Hawili added that the committee will meet on Sunday to discuss the rest of the proposals that will be presented to the committee.
He continued: "It is expected that the proposals will be presented to the Constitutional Committee between the HoR and the HSC on the January 20 in the Egyptian capital, Cairo.
On Saturday, the Acting Head of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL), Stephanie Williams, announced that the members of the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum (LPDF) will vote on the proposed mechanism for choosing the interim executive authority next Monday.
Williams explained that voting takes place 24 hours, and the results will be announced upon completion of the counting of votes on Tuesday.
"The proposed mechanism will be approved if it gets 63% of the vote," Williams said at a news conference. If it does not reach this percentage, the second round of voting will be held after two days.
"The required percentage for agreement in this round is 50% +1," Williams noted.
