Much more reasonable. I can support that.
I do still have some concerns about the inclusion of deputies in this legislation though, not specifically related to (5), but just in general. This may just be a cultural difference, but I don't see any reason a legislative deputy couldn't serve in the executive, or vice versa.
I would have no problem with that, but others have argued for extremely strict separation provisions.
