Paragraph 27
 

Members of all national minorities, which make over 3% of the total population of a municipality, shall be guaranteed at least two (2) seats in a Municipal Council/Municipal Assembly. This law leaves it to the Municipal Statute to establish the number of members of national minorities to be elected in a Municipal Council/Municipal Assembly. For that purpose the representation of national minorities is established on the basis of the last census conducted by the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
