السلطات الجديدة لإخطار المجلس الدستوري طبقا للمادة [187] من دستور 2016

Abstract EN

The Algerian constitution, in accordance with the constitutional amendment act 2016, designated new powers and entities that could notify the Constitutional Council, in order to control the constitutionality of laws.

These authorities are: the prime minister who represents the executive power, and 50 deputies from the National People's Assembly and 30 members from the council of nation who represent the legislative power.

The aim of this regulation in accordance with the article 187 of the constitution is to give more opportunities to those authorities to notify and consequently protect the constitution, and to enlarge the optional control, especially in light of the reluctance of the former authorities to notify the instrument of control voluntarily.

Also to establish an institutional balance between the legislative and executive powers.

This process gives the ability to the representatives to notify the parliament which allow the majority and the minority or even the political opposition represented in the parliament in each chamber to make an objection to laws.

The object is to be certain of their conformity with the constitution before the Constitutional Council which is competent in this area.
