Government

According to Britannica, the first constitution of Senegal was promulgated in 1963 and revised through March 1998. A new constitution, approved by voters in January 2001 and since amended, proclaims fundamental human rights; respect for individual and collective property rights; political, trade-union, and religious freedoms; and a democratic and secular state.

Senegal is a multiparty republic. The 2001 constitution provides for a strongly centralized presidential regime, the head of state and government is the president, who is elected by direct universal adult suffrage and can be elected to two seven-year terms. Ministers are appointed by the president. Senegal has a unicameral legislature (the National Assembly), with most members directly elected; the remaining members are indirectly elected. All legislators serve five-year terms. Judicial, executive, and legislative powers are separated.

Senegal is divided into 14 régions, which in turn are divided into départements and arrondissements. Each région is administered by a governor whose role is coordinative and who is assisted by two deputy governors, one dealing with administration and the other with development. Regional assemblies, the powers of which were increased in 1996, are composed of general councillors responsible for local taxation. In each département the prefect represents the republic, as do the ministers. There are also autonomous urban communes. Dakar is governed by an elected municipal council.

Judicial power in Senegal is exercised by the Constitutional Council, the Council of State, the Court of Cassation, the Court of Accounts, and the Courts and Tribunals. Senegal also has a High Court of Justice, whose members are elected by the National Assembly. The High Court tries government officials for crimes committed while in performance of their government duties.
