Bishop Bola, the member of the Constituent Assembly representing the Coptic Orthodox Church, states that the Constitution represents the entire spectrum of Egyptians. He also added that it is a victory for the marginalized. He said that it has approved the right to issue a church-building law in the coming parliament and establishes a commission to combat all forms of discrimination.  The bishop stated that the change in the wording of the preamble from “secular governance” to “secular government” is a minor change and that it will not affect the Constitution (Nādir Shukrī, Watanī, Dec. 8, p. 8). Read original text in Arabic.
