In case, for a political party or body, the difference between the number of candidates of each sex having declared to join this party or body, on the occasion of the last general renewal of the National Assembly, according to the fifth paragraph of article 9, exceeds 2 % of the total number of these candidates, the amount of the first fraction allocated to it for the application of articles 8 and 9 is diminished by a percentage equal to three quarters of this difference proportional to the total number of these candidates.
This reduction is not applicable to the political parties and bodies having presented exclusively overseas candidates if the difference between the number of candidates of each sex who have joined it is not superior by one.
