Provisional National Assembly

A Provisional National Assembly is a temporary governing body established during a transitional period, usually before a permanent government is in place. It functions to hold elections, pass laws, and create institutions necessary for state stability and governance. This assembly typically operates during times of political upheaval, independence movements, or after a conflict, providing a structured way to represent the people’s interests and lay the groundwork for a lasting government. Once stability is achieved, a more permanent parliament or legislative body is usually formed to replace it.
