A proposed law can be passed into the Parliament if it receives five endorsements by sitting members, whereby all members are notified a week prior of it being discussed and voted on in Parliament. The first section is called the Discussion Session, where the Minister and an optional representative for each party is entitled to a maximum ten-minute speech on the proposed law. The second section is called the Voting Session, whereby each member digitally votes 'for' or 'against' the proposal. To pass the proposal into legislation, it must receive a simple majority of 11 votes in favour.
