Members of national minorities as referred to in Article 17 of this Act shall elect representatives to the Parliament by individual election such that the elected representative shall be the candidate who has won the greatest number of votes cast. If two or more candidates win the same number of votes, the election shall be repeated.

With Article 40 of the AAAERCSP (Official Gazette 53/03), which entered into force on 2 April 2003, the words: "House of Representatives of the Parliament" were replaced with the word: "Parliament".
