The composition of a meeting of representatives or that of any other body wholly or partly comprising representatives from local organizations shall be determined in the Statutes. The number of representatives from a local organization is primarily calculated on the basis of the number of represented members. The Statutes may provide that the composition of the rest of the representatives from the local organizations, at most one half of the total, shall be determined in accordance with the proportion of votes polled at local organization level in previous parliamentary elections. The exercise of the right to vote may dependend on the fulfillment of the obligation of the members of the local organization for payment of membership fees.
