Loi Cadre Defferre
The Loi Cadre Defferre was a French framework law of 23 June 1956, named after the overseas minister Gaston Defferre, that reformed the government of France's African and Malagasy territories. It introduced universal suffrage on a single electoral roll and gave each territory an elected assembly and a government council. By shifting power to the territories, it weakened the federations of French West and Equatorial Africa.
