Article 104
 

(1) The number of members of a representative body from among members of an individual national minority (pursuant to the provisions of the Constitutional Act on the Rights of National Minorities) shall be determined by multiplying the share of each national minority in the total population of that unit by the number of members in the representative body of the unit, and the number obtained is then rounded up or down to a whole number, with no decimal remainder.


(2) If a minority that has a share in the total population of at least 5% does not realise the right to be represented in the representative body pursuant to paragraph 1 of this Article, that minority has the right to one member in the representative body.


(3) Before all local elections, the central body of state administration competent for general administrative affairs shall publish on its website information on the number of members of the representative body of the unit who are to be elected from among members of an individual national minority.
