Amīrah Ibrāhīm comments in al-Tahrīr newspaper:

“The fourth round of the dialogue of the deaf- not the national dialogue as the presidency calls it- was scheduled for Tuesday, December 18. However, the session has been postponed to ‘complete the legal aspects of the agenda of the dialogue’, according to a presidential statement released by the presidential spokesman, Dr. Yāsir ’Alī. Unfortunately, the three Egyptian Churches had received the invitation to attend the national dialogue after its postponement for Wednesday, December 19. In brief, there was no intention to invite the Churches in the first place.
In addition, representatives of the three churches revealed, that they are not informed on the points outlining the dialogue agenda: Will the meeting tackle the issue of the Copts representation in the Shūrá Council? Or will it discuss the new election law, especially since the presidency asked the churches to send their nominations- as President Muhammad Mursī is racing against time to appoint 90 members for the Shūrá Council, paving, thus, the transmission of legislative power to him.
The fourth round of the dialogue of the deaf headed by Vice President Mahmūd Mikkī and representatives of 12 parties are currently working on the nominations required to complete the required number of Shūrá Council members, while at the same time, they call on the opposition parties to send their lists of nominations as substitute for a national dialogue for the common good. It is noteworthy, that the opposition had rejected to join the previous sessions. 
Despite the continuous crisis between the President and his Jamā'ah (the Muslim Brotherhood Party)and the judicial body, the presidency chose to remain silent towards the declared rejection of the judges to oversee the polling stations during the second round of the referendum; nor did the presidency comment on the accusation the judicial body had addressed to the president and the presidency of breaking his promise to preserve judicial independence in the new Egypt, and upon which the judges had accepted to supervise the first phase of the referendum in the first place. The Council of State Court Judges declared that they have been used by the presidency just to give the electoral process a legislative appearance.
On the other hand, the ‘loyal’ follower to the Muslim Brothers and their president, Mahmūd Mikkī, intervened to arrange an abrupt meeting between Dr. 'Issām al-Haddād, the president’s advisor on foreign affairs with Secretary General of the Higher Presidential Elections Commission (HPEC) Counselor Hātim Bijātū, in order to solve the recent crisis, among the many crises, between the presidency and the supreme court. The latter crisis ignited upon the statement delivered by President Mursī to foreign media outlets in English language which has deeply wounded the integrity of the Supreme Constitutional Court.
