Ruling council considers compromise on constitution, says NAC member

Ahmed al-Fadaly, member of the National Accord Conference, said he met with Sami Annan, vice president of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, to discuss a proposed compromise regarding the new constitution. Some political groups call for writing a new constitution before holding parliamentary elections and others prefer holding elections first.

He said Annan did not mind receiving a proposed document containing general principles of the new constitution, after it was discussed by all political groups, and that Annan believed the council could amend or endorse it before elections slated for September.
