Both are found in the Iraqi constitution amendment, so the constitutional legislator imposed a set of restrictions on the amendment, which must be started with the proposal, the initiative approval and finally the final approval, whether the amendment is normal or extraordinary; each has its terms of success which may cause the difference between them.
