The initiative was validated by the Chamber of Deputies on 25 January.
This is the second initiative on the constitutional reform. A previous initiative collected about 7,400 signatures out of the required 25,000, which led to a second constitutional vote in the Chamber of Deputies, but not to a referendum.
An initiative committee is behind this second attempt to organise a constitutional referendum. Nine people are on the committee:
Ms Jutta Margarete KIRSTEN, 53, 10A, Route de Mondorf, L-5670 Altwies;
Mr Bob SCHMITZ, 40, 4, Montée St. Urbain, L-5573 Remich;
Ms Nora Liliane PLEIMLING, 36, 2, Um Bangels, L-7640 Christnach;
Mr Patrick MISCHEL, 44, 48, Op der Schanz, L-6225 Altrier;
Ms Valérie LORANG, 30, 71, Rue de Larochette, L-7635 Ernzen;
Mr Pierre Lucien Joseph LORANG, 61, 126, Rue de Luxembourg, L-7540 Rollingen;
Mr Benoit HENKES, 50, 27, Rue de l’École, L-9184 Schrondweiler;
Ms Marie Jeanne ARENDT, 54, 24, An Aasselbaach, L-9776 Wilwerwiltz; and
Ms Caterina Carmen MANUCCI, 59, 3, Rue Kiem, L-6187 Gonderange.
The initiative can be signed at the different municipalities of the country between 2 and 25 March. Those eligible to participate will have to go to their respective town hall to participate in the call for signatures in favour of a potential constitutional referendum.
