Proposition de loi organique relative au Département-Région de Mayotte
This is a proposed organic law (a law that sets out the constitutional or institutional framework of a French territory) concerning the Département-Région de Mayotte, the French overseas territory in the Indian Ocean. The title suggests it deals with the institutional status of Mayotte, which currently combines the functions of a department and a region in a single authority. The proposal was introduced in the French National Assembly during the 15th legislature. Based on metadata only, the precise content of the changes is not visible here. The direct effects would fall mainly on the residents of Mayotte and on the local authority that administers the territory, since the text concerns how its institutions are organised and how their powers are defined. National institutions and the French state's relationship with the territory could also be affected. Readers should consult the full text for specific changes.
