The bill was adopted with 542 votes in favor during a session chaired by Azouz Nasri, Speaker of the Council of the Nation (Parliament's Upper House), in the presence of the Speaker of the People’s National Assembly (Parliament's Lower House), Brahim Boughali, and the President of the Constitutional Court, Leila Aslaoui. The session was also attended by the Chief of Staff of the Presidency of the Republic, Boualem Boualem, as well as members of the Government and representatives of official institutions. The bill, which includes 12 amendments, aims to "improve certain purely technical aspects of constitutional provisions relating to the organization and functioning of specific constitutional institutions and public bodies." Prior to the vote, leaders of the parliamentary groups expressed their support for the amendments, stating that the changes will allow for "more precise implementation and the removal of ambiguities, reflecting a political will to build more effective institutions" through the active involvement of political parties. They further noted that these technical adjustments reflect "the dynamism of the State and its capacity to adapt and refine its legal mechanisms" by addressing shortcomings identified during implementation. They emphasized that the Constitution remains "the sovereign reference upon which the State relies to establish increasingly efficient and effective institutions."
