    Virtually nothing useful has been addressed in the proposals.
    The report should be rejected outright, and issue of constitutional review should be addressed by a much wider spectrum of stakeholders.

    EC 10yrs non renewable term is tantamount to corrupt them, their age for retirement should rather be capped at a particular age. Council of state should be scrapped asap, we don't need at all, waste of state resources.
