 Whilst the provisions of the Constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand as amended by this Constitution are still prevented from becoming applicable in accordance with paragraph 1, the provisions of the mentioned sections prior to being amended by this Constitution and the Organic Act on Election of Members of the House of Representatives and Procurement of Senators which has been enacted for the implementation of those provisions shall continue to be applicable.

The National Assembly shall, within one year counted from the day of promulgation of this Constitution, finish considering and giving approval to the amendment to the Organic Act on Election of Members of the House of Representatives and Procurement of Senators so as to implement this Constitution.

In the case that the execution of paragraph 1 cannot yet be finished and a general election of Members of the House of Representatives is required, the Election Commission shall have the power to issue for application to such election an announcement designating the criteria and procedure for elections of Members of the House of Representatives which conforms to this Constitution, and the articles designated by the announcement of the Election Commission shall apply in place of the parts of the provisions of the Organic Act on Election of Members of the House of Representatives and Procurement of Senators which are contrary to or inconsistent with this Constitution.
