The date of the republican referendum is to be fixed at least 60 days before the day of the vote (Article 190), allowing sufficient time for a reflection in line with international good practice. However, the maximum deadline for organising a referendum is not provided. Taken together with a rather long period of six months for the Parliament to announce the vote, this may lead to extended delays, possibly rendering the question irrelevant. The law should provide a maximum period between the submission of signatures for a referendum by a popular initiative and the vote. For the same reasons, the deadline for the Parliament to adopt a decision on a referendum should be reconsidered. In addition, clarification on the question of the Parliament, rejecting a proposal, and what will happen if it fails to take a decision should be added.
