Article 65
 

The members of the House of Representatives are elected for five years.


The House is renewed in full every five years.


The elections for the Chamber take place on the same day as the elections for the European Parliament.


 Transitional provision


A law, adopted by the majority laid down in the last paragraph of Article 4, determines, after the elections for the European Parliament of 2014, the date of entry into force of paragraph 3. That date corresponds to the date of entry into force of Article 46 (6) and Article 118 (2) (4).


In any case, federal legislative elections will be held on the same day as the first elections for the European Parliament following the publication of this revision in the Moniteur belge.
