Paragraph 67

The first round, under Article 10.12, is to allocate one seat per constituent peoples or others per canton and the second round, under Article 10.16, is to reallocate those seats that could not be filled to those cantons that have the necessary number of constituent peoples or others to fill the remaining seat(s) (Article 10.16(1)).
