Chapter 14
 

The central election authority shall at the request of the Speaker of the Riksdag, applying Section 14, if possible appoint two new substitutes, if


1. the number of substitutes for a member of the Riksdag has reduced to half or less than half of the number that has been appointed at the election because substitutes have been appointed as ordinary members or have resigned for some other reason, or


2. the number of substitutes is not sufficient for the substitutes to be able to take over a member's position.
