These remarks are gathered from the constitutions and bylaws while making this study.

Some of these remarks are attached to the form and some are general (1st part).

We also performed comparison tables concerning vocabulary, terminology and tables showing the names of the parliamentary committees in different Arab states (2nd part).

We noticed that neither the constitution nor the bylaw of some states contain a general index (Bahrain, Emirates, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq, Sudan) while the constitution or the bylaw of other states contain an index which is very general pointing out only the main titles (Saudi Arabia (bylaw), Syria (constitution), Jordan (bylaw), Lebanon (constitution), Yemen (bylaw)).

On the other hand some states have detailed indices (Morocco (bylaw), Syria (bylaw), Algiers (bylaw), Egypt (bylaw)).

We should note here that Jordan is the only state whose general index contains all the titles of the text which made it very clear and easy to work on.

Most of the Arab states don’t have a logical sequence in their laws, i.e. some articles include two completely different topics, while sometimes a single topic is dealt with, in more than one article, or chapter or section knowing that it’s better to join all the data concerning a certain topic in one article or consequent articles.

We note that Yemen repeated the same data in its constitution and bylaw.

We also notice that in Bahrain there is a contradiction between art 80 constitution and art 11 bylaw, for the constitution forbids the membership in both parliament and cabinet, while the bylaw allows it. This constitution also noticed a national council, while the bylaw that was issued in 1992 (i.e. after the constitution (1972)) noticed a consolatory council with new provisions different from those of the constitution. So this must be amended, unless it has already been so but was not provided to us in Lebanon.

We noticed that Saudi Arabia and Qatar don’t mention in their texts the “term parliament”.

We also noticed that Qatar doesn’t mention a majority system.

We noted that in Sudan the decisions of the parliament are taken by anonymous voting.

We end this part by pointing out some typing mistakes.

In the texts of Sudan the typing mistakes are many so it’s not possible to list them.

Three comparison tables deal with these remarks:
a- A comparison table for terminology in different Arab state’s
b- A comparison table for vocabulary in different Arab states
c- A comparison table for the different titles of the parliamentary committees.
