QuoteThe Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo (Francophone socialist) has told lawmakers that he has no plans to make changes to the king's role during the present parliament.

Mr Di Rupo was responding to proposals from the Flemish liberal government MP Luk Van Biesen, who suggested changing the constitution so that the king no longer has to sign new laws and appoint ministers.
