History

The liberal forces, which had gained considerable votes in the 1999 parliamentary elections, recorded significant losses in the 2003 election, while Conservative and Islamist MPs made up the majority in the National Assembly. After the elections, the emir did not appoint the crown prince as prime minister for the first time, thus complying with the demand for the two offices to be separated. In May 2005, on the initiative of the ruling house, after years of disputes, the parliament passed the right to vote for women.
