10 Official Gazette – Issue No. 7 (bis) February 18, 2013 Whereas Article (236) of the Constitution stipulates that "All constitutional declarations issued by the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces and by the President of the Republic from 11 February 2011 to the date of the enforcement of the Constitution are hereby repealed….” Thus, the constitutional basis that allowed the assignment of the polling and counting processes to members other than those of judicial bodies was annulled as of the enforcement date of the new constitution. Therefore, the provisions of the new constitution should be applied, taking into consideration that they do not include such exception. Based on the Aforementioned Reasons, The Court Has Hereby Decided: First: Article (2), paragraphs (1) and (4) of Article (3) replaced by Article (1) of the draft law, item (7) of Article (5) added by Article (2) of the draft law, and Article (3bis”L”) added by Article (7) of the draft law contradict the provisions of the Constitution as illustrated in the reasons stated above.
