GERB is submitting its draft for a new constitution, said the Prime Minister and leader of GERB Boyko Borissov in a statement posted on his Facebook page and expressed readiness to meet with his coalition partners. The prime minister called for a contact group to be set up to secure at least 120 votes in parliament to support the proposal for a new constitution on the first working day after the holiday, September 2. 

Borissov also asked GERB MPs to investigate whether it is possible to gather a majority of 160 deputies to convene a Grand National Assembly. Regarding the statements of the protesters that GERB's decisions are aimed at postponing the resignations of the Prime Minister, the government and the Prosecutor General, Borissov noted that he had ordered all GERB's proposals for the Constitution, the Grand National Assembly and machine voting to be implemented as soon as possible.
