List of Bills Tabled in Parliament under the Administration of President Michel Joseph Martelly
Summary: The table kept by the Secretariat General of the Council of Ministers of the bills tabled under Michel Joseph Martelly's administration, each with its tabling date and, where it happened, the dates the Deputies and the Senators voted it. The first entry is the finance bill for fiscal 2011-12, tabled on 12 April 2012 and voted on 2 May. For the legal register this table answers a question few sources settle: what was tabled, and what was actually voted.
Key Findings
- Tabulates each bill tabled under the Martelly administration with the date it was tabled and whether the deputies and the senators voted it, so the table records outcome and not only intent.
- Shows the finance bill for fiscal year 2011-2012 voted by the deputies on 12 April 2012 and by the senators in May, against a long run of bills marked NON and NON.
- The bills tabled on 19 July 2012 include the number and naming of ministries, the organization of the Primature's central services, electronic administration, electronic signature, electronic exchanges, the national standardization and certification centre, consumer protection, food quality control and money laundering.
- Read as a whole it is a record of legislative attrition: most of what an administration tabled did not pass either chamber.
