> I don't know if it helps to look at Art. VIII, Sec. 5 of the Provisional Constitution which states that the Prov. Constitution is abolished upon the ratification of the new constitution. So all procedures before the ratification should follow the provisions of the Provisional Constitution (that is, including procedures of the referendum).
No it doesn't because the rules regarding the elections are not in the provinsional constitution, but are rather a simple law ( it isn't even a law yet, it is a rule, but that isn't the point ).
And, the constitution stipulates :
"Until they are overriden, repealed, or found to violate the new constitution, all laws passed by the Provisional Governing Council shall remain in place."
As such, the ONLY thing repealed by Art. VIII, Sec. 5, is the actual provisional constitution, NOT the laws passed under it.

> IMHO, the Appendix of the new constitution regarding the procedure of adopting the new constitution can only fill "constitutional gaps" that open in the very moment when the Provisional Constitution becomes history (and thus all provisional bodies of the Republic cease to exist).
Yes, provisional bodies cease to exist, but not the laws of the PGC...
Only the bodies that pass them.
France singing review, according to RBO ( listen to it here):
j'ai p't-être pas inventé, le bouton à quatre trou,
mais quand il est tombé, c'est moi qui le recoud.
Oh hé, (oh hé ) j'suis comme le camembert
Hé Oh, ( hé od ) j'm'étend moi bien qu'j'en ai l'air |
