The text submitted to referendum may be presented in various forms :

-  a specifically-worded draft of a constitutional amendment, legislative enactment or other measure

-  repeal of an existing provision

-  a question of principle (for example: “Are you in favour of amending the constitution to introduce a presidential system of government ?”) or

-  a concrete proposal, not presented in the form of a specific provision and known as a “generally-worded proposal” (for example: “Are you in favour of amending the Constitution in order to reduce the number of seats in Parliament from 300 to 200?”).
