The organic bill on the election of MPs was withdrawn from parliamentary deliberation and sent back for another round of preliminary scrutiny to ensure it is compatible with the new way of calculating party-list MPs.
Parliament voted 476 to 25, with 20 abstentions and nine no-votes, to remove the bill from its deliberation agenda and allow it to be scrutinised again by the vetting panel.
A problem occurred during a joint-sitting by MPs and senators on Tuesday. As parliament proceeded to Section 23, a debating frenzy broke out as some lawmakers pointed to inconsistencies in the bill's contents and the House of Representatives' votes on the legislation.
