 This decision was suspended in January 2007 when it was pointed out to Chief Pleas that the 56% versus 44% majority achieved in the opinion poll did not achieve the 60% majority required for the constitutional change.The decision was replaced by the proposal that Chief Pleas should consist of sixteen tenants and twelve ' both elected by universal adult suffrage from 2008 to 2012 and that a binding referendum should then decide whether this composition should be kept or replaced by 28 '.This proposal was rejected by the Privy Council and the 28 ' option was reinstated in February 2008 and accepted by Privy Council in April 2008.
