Article 109: Draft bills and proposed bills are both tabled at the bureau of the National Assembly and Senate. The draft bills and proposed bills are examined by the committees of each house. A house, seized of a draft voted on by the other house, deliberates on the draft that is transmitted to it. However, the discussion of bills brought before the first house referred to, deals with the draft presented by the President of the Republic. Article 110: Any draft bill or proposed bill is examined successively by both houses of Parliament for the purpose of adopting an identical draft. The draft budget bill is submitted first to the National Assembly. Draft bills or proposed bills relating to territorial communities are submitted first to the Senate. If, as a result of a disagreement between the two houses, a draft bill or proposed bill cannot be adopted after two readings by each house or, if the President of the Republic declares that the matter is urgent after only one reading in each house, the President of the Republic may call a meeting of the joint committee of equal representation that proposes a draft on the remaining provisions under discussion. The draft prepared by the joint committee of equal representation may be submitted by the President of the Republic for approval by both houses. No amendment is accepted unless approved by the President of the Republic. If the joint committee of equal representation fails to adopt a common draft or if disagreement persists between the two houses over the adoption of the draft, the President of the Republic asks the National Assembly to make a definitive decision on the draft. In this case, the National Assembly may take over either the draft prepared by the joint committee of equal representation or the last draft voted on by it, amended as necessary by one or more of the amendments adopted by the Senate. Article 111: The Parliament votes on the appropriation bill under the conditions determined by the organic law. Article 112: The Parliament is seized of the appropriation bill before the end of the ordinary session. The appropriation bill must provide the necessary revenues for complete coverage of expenditures. The Parliament votes on the balanced budget. If the National Assembly does not reach a decision at the first reading within a period of forty days after the filing of the bill, the President of the Republic refers the matter to the Senate, which makes a decision within fifteen days. It thereafter comes under the conditions prescribed in Article 110. If the Parliament does not reach a decision within a period of seventy days, the bill may be put into force by order. The President of the Republic, for ratification, refers to the Parliament convened in an extraordinary session, within a period of fifteen days. If the Parliament has not voted on the budget at the end of this extraordinary session, the budget is definitively established by order. If the appropriation bill could not be submitted in time to be promulgated before the beginning of the financial year, the President of the Republic requests Parliament’s authorization urgently to resume the budget for the previous year by the provisional one-twelfth.
