Creation of the Prime Minister position, reduction of members of the National Assembly and scrapping nominated positions top the proposals that the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) team received.

A powerful office of the official Opposition leader, scrapping of the Women Representatives seat and an addition of a third tier of devolution also featured prominently in the views presented to the team.
