The Constitution of the Federation was amended by the High Representative in 2002 as a result of the Constitutional Court’s decision on the constituent peoples5 in 2000 so as to include, on a parity basis, all constituent peoples and to make room for seven delegates from the others in the House of Peoples of the Federation. At the same time, the number of Bosniac and Croat delegates in that House had been reduced from 30 to 17 by the decision of the High Representative in 2002.
