Separation of State and Religion Sample Clauses

Separation of State and Religion. On state and religion the document stated, inter alia: The national/central constitution was to guarantee freedom of belief, worship, and religious practices to all Sudanese. Concerning legislation, the national parliament was to operate in two distinct ways. When it legislated for the Northern states, it was to use Sharia and customs as the source of legislation. However, when it enacted national legislation applicable to Southern Sudan, it was to use non-Sharia sources, and could derive its legislation from popular consensus, values and customs of the people of the South. The central government and related institutions were to do likewise.116 There was to be freedom of belief, worship and conscience for followers of all religious faiths or beliefs or customs and no one was to be discriminated against on such grounds. It also affirmed that eligibility for public office, including the Presidency, public service and the enjoyment of all rights and duties was to be based on citizenship and not on religious beliefs and customs. The national government, it was also agreed, was to take into account the religious and cultural diversity of the Sudanese people in all its laws.117 In addition, there was to be a central bi-cameral legislature consisting of an upper and lower house. The lower house was to consist of members directly elected by the people while the upper house was to have an equal number of representatives from North and South. The function of the upper house was to protect states from national legislation of a religious nature, which would adversely affect them. If such a case arose, the upper house would block it. As a corollary to this, the administration of Southern Sudan was to involve substantial devolution of powers (ministers and national institutions) from the centre. 115 Xxxx, Xxxxx.
