Projet de loi modifiant la loi du 2 mai 2019 relative aux pétitions adressées à la Chambre des représentants en vue d'instaurer un délai maximum pour la récolte de signatures.
This Belgian bill would amend the 2 May 2019 law on petitions addressed to the Chamber of Representatives, the lower house of the federal parliament. Its stated aim is to introduce a maximum period during which signatures can be collected for a petition. Petitions are a way for citizens to bring issues directly to parliament, so setting a deadline would give the process a clearer and more defined timeframe. The change would mainly affect citizens and organisers who launch petitions to the Belgian Chamber of Representatives, who would need to collect signatures within the new time limit. Parliament's handling of petitions would also be affected. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text, so the exact length of the limit is not stated here.
