Usually, the delay is meant to enable affected agencies or individuals to make arrangements for changes brought by the law. Does the delay of the enforcement of the law also mean a poll delay? An optimist would note that the MPs election bill has not yet been finalised. The bill would need to be redrafted and the Constitution does not say how long it should take. So if the MPs election bill is shot down, the election would be postponed indefinitely.
