What are the steps after a partial presidential objection?

[edit]

The Colombian El Tiempo's claims (see the coup d'etat article) about Correa thinking of dissoving parliament sound a bit strange, but maybe that's just because of my ignorance of the Ecuadoran constitutional process for law projects (proposed laws). After Correa's partial objections, presumably the parliament (plenary session?) has to decide how much of the objections it is willing to accept, and then make a final proposal. Presumably there is also a limit to the number of times the project can go back and forth, so that the different political forces know that they cannot keep modifying ad infinitum, and that the risk is having no new law at all.

Presumably this is written in Articles 132 to 140 in the Constitution - http://pdba.georgetown.edu/Constitutions/Ecuador/ecuador08.html - or maybe it's a tradition not actually coded in the Constitution? If it's labelled as "partial objection", then it presumably avoids being as strong as a "complete objection". Boud (talk) 21:50, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
