A referendum scheduled for Saturday March 19 is set to ask Egypt' s people to vote on changes that would relax regulations and restrictions concerning who could run for president, allowing independents and candidates from small opposition parties to nominate and imposing a two-term limit on future presidents in addition to amendments to allow for just parliamentary elections.
According to official sources any new political parties will simply need to notify authorities of their formation where previously under the deposed Mubarak's rule , any opposition had to receive approval from a committee dominated by the National Democratic then ruling party, which ensured dictatorial control over rivals.
Previously the unjust system allowed Mubarak to rule for three decades giving the ruling NDP full veto for who could run against him.
