Egyptian Constitution of 2012 information


Ballot of Egyptian voters used in the constitutional referendum on 22-Dec-2012

The Constitution of the Arab Republic of Egypt was the former fundamental law of Egypt. It was signed into law by President Mohamed Morsi on 26 December 2012, after it was approved by the Constituent Assembly on 30 November 2012 and passed in a referendum held 15–22 December 2012 with 64% support, and a turnout of 33%.[1] It replaced the 2011 Provisional Constitution of Egypt, adopted in 2011 following the Egyptian revolution. On 3 July 2013, the constitution was suspended by order of the Egyptian army.[2] On 8 July 2013, acting President Adly Mansour issued a decree that envisaged the introduction of amendments to the constitution and put them to a referendum; if approved, the suspended-constitution would be restored into law.[3] The current constitutional declaration has the power of a constitution; it outlines the authorities of the president and establishes many rights.[4]

The constitution and the manner in which it was adopted have been one focus of the 2012–13 Egyptian protests. Zaghoul el-Balshi, the general secretary of the commission overseeing the planned constitutional referendum, resigned in the wake of the protests.[5]

The 2012 Constitution was superseded by the Egyptian Constitution of 2014.
