On 16 May 2006 the majlis voted to refer the council of minister's redistricting plan to the constitutional council. The plan would redistrict Kuwait into ten districts. The referral was seen as an effort by opponents of redistricting to defeat redistricting through delays.
The referral passed 33 to 1. Opponents were not present for the vote.
