The Citizens’ Assembly would be given powers to present three bills per session. These bills should be subject to free votes.
This proposal is a core demand of "Krisis: a Manifesto for the Future" which has been published in full at theunfinishedrevolution.net (with a shorter version in The Observer Letters 24/05/20) and signed by 45 prominent academics, lawyers, writers and activists.
Only Parliament could establish such a body.
