[edit] Notes

1. ^ ^{a b c d e f} In order to be recognised, a fraction must consist of at least 5 representatives. As a result, the representatives of Ecolo (which has only 4 members), the FN (1 members) and the N-VA (1 member) do not belong to a recognised fraction.

The cantons of Belgium

[edit] Judicial

A judicial canton (Dutch: gerechtelijk kanton) is a group of municipalities in which there is one Justice of the Peace that has jurisdiction over those municipalities. A judicial arrondissement consists of all judicial cantons on its territory. There are 225 judicial cantons in Belgium.

[edit] Electoral

An electoral canton (Dutch: kieskanton) is a group of municipalities in which elections are organised by one Canton Principal Office. It doesn't necessarily correspond with a judicial canton. It is the lowest, most detailled level for which election results are available.
