The 9th Parliament consists in 44 representatives, elected from 23 single-seat or multi-seat constituencies.[1]
The parliamentary website notes that, although political parties exist, they are "loose groupings rather than disciplined blocks, with little or no structure. Members may change allegiance on a number of occasions during their tenure. It is also common for members to vote according to the special interests of their electorate on certain issues".[2] Consequently, representatives' party membership is not listed on the parliamentary website.
