Stephanie Williams, the special adviser to the UN Secretary-General on Libya, stated on Friday that the Joint Committee between the Libyan House of Representatives and the High Council of State on Constitutional Track has established “an initial consensus” on 137 articles of a draft constitution.

“I am particularly pleased that you were able to agree on Chapter 2 on the rights and freedoms, as well as on the Chapters on legislative and judicial authority,’ Williams said in a statement.
