By August 15: The assembly completes drafting a constitution.
By October 15: Iraqi public referendum on constitution
By December 15: If the constitution is approved, Iraqis vote for a new national government to take office December 31. If the assembly fails to draft a constitution or voters reject it, a new transitional national assembly will be elected and have one year to redraft the constitution.
