Provisions and provided to the Senate Forum are scrutinised by the Senate to see if they are constitutional and protect the freedoms, equality, democracy and other human rights of the nation. If approved, they will be put under a direct vote (referendum); a direct vote requires a turnout of at least two-thirds of the population (officially described as 65-70% of the population) along with a simple majority. If this is not possible, it will be voted by the Senate. Constitutional amendments and modifications require a two-third majority.
