The amended Article 70 par 3 stipulates that “[t]he decision on withdrawal from the coalition of the parliamentary majority shall be made by a faction by at least two thirds of votes of the total number of faction members”. This new provision de facto increases the difficulty for a faction to withdraw from the coalition of the parliamentary majority. The underlying rationale could be the maintenance of a stable governing majority.91 This should not be an issue per se in light of the fact that the deputies remain free to vote for or against the position of the fraction/party or coalition of the majority, in line with Article 73 par 1 of the Constitution.
