Legal expert Ali Al-Tamimi explained how to dissolve parliament and hold early elections, pointing out that the President of the Republic is calling for these elections two months after he agreed to dissolve parliament in accordance with the constitution.
Al-Tamimi said, “The dissolution of the parliament will be by requesting one third of the members of the House of Representatives and the approval of the absolute majority of the parliament after the quorum is achieved under the parliament dome.”
He added that “the Prime Minister can dissolve Parliament by submitting a request to do so and the approval of the President of the Republic on that.”
And he stated that “the President of the Republic shall, in turn, call for early elections after the dissolution of Parliament, where he shall, after a period of two months after the dissolution of the House of Representatives, hold the said elections in accordance with Article 64 of the Constitution.”
