Uganda promulgated a new Constitution in October 1995 and held a presidential election in May 1996, followed by parliamentary elections in June. The 1995 Constitution provided for a strong executive president, to be elected every five years, but with significant requirements for Parliamentary approval of presidential actions. The Parliament includes 214 directly elected representatives from geographical constituencies and special indirectly elected seats for representatives of women (39), youth (5), disabled (5), labor (3), and the Army (10)
