The Federal Assembly may submit its own counter-proposal on the same constitutional issue to the vote of the people and the Cantons at the same time as the popular initiative.
The federal decree on the counter-proposal of the Federal Assembly shall be debated in each council prior to the Assembly deciding on the voting recommendation in the federal decree on the popular initiative.
The final vote on the federal decree on the counter-proposal shall take place no more than eight days before the end of the session which precedes the expiry of the deadline for dealing with the popular initiative. If the federal decree is rejected by either council in the final vote, the conciliation committee shall submit a proposal on the voting recommendation in the federal decree on the popular initiative. A counter-proposal may no longer be put forward.
