Filling in vacant MP seat from a coalition electoral list


The seat of an MP from the coalition electoral list whose term of office has been terminated before the tenures for two thirds of MPs from the next parliamentary term of the National Assembly have been confirmed shall be allocated, by a decision, to the first next candidate from the same political party on that electoral list to whom a seat was not allocated.


If there are no candidates from the same political party on that electoral list to whom seats have not been allocated, the vacant seat shall be filled in by allocating it to the first next candidate from that electoral list to whom a seat has not been allocated, unless stipulated by the coalition agreement that in such cases the seat shall be allocated to the first next candidate of a certain political party to whom a seat was not allocated.
