Elections for a General National Congress were held in Libya on 7 July 2012, having been postponed from 19 June. Once elected, the General National Congress will appoint a Prime Minister and Cabinet. The GNC was originally to be charged with appointing a Constituent Assembly to draw up Libya's new constitution, but the National Transitional Council announced on 5 July that the Assembly would instead be directly elected at a later date.
