The decision was made in response to a request from the Attorney General's Office, which argued that more time was necessary to reach a consensus on the proposed changes. The original deadline was set for March 15th, but it has now been extended to March 25th. The proposed amendments aim to streamline the process of amending the constitution and make it more transparent and accountable. They include measures such as requiring a two-thirds majority vote in both the Chamber of Deputies and the Federal Senate, as well as a public hearing before any amendment is put to a vote. The government and Congress are expected to use the additional time to engage in further discussions and consultations with stakeholders. The STF's decision is seen as a positive step towards ensuring that any changes to the constitution are made in a thoughtful and inclusive manner.
