About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of the Madani government's failed constitutional amendment to limit a prime minister's tenure and its impact on reform momentum ahead of the next general election.

The Madani government's push to limit a prime minister's tenure to 10 years was billed as a cornerstone of its institutional reform agenda. But after the constitutional amendment failed to secure enough support in March, the promised re-tabling during the latest parliamentary sitting never materialised. As Parliament adjourns until October, questions are growing over whether the government's reform momentum is stalling and what this means for its broader credibility ahead of the next general election.
