The House of Representatives consists of 15 representatives, however can be lowered or raised if it is deemed adequate by the legislature. All representatives are elected directly by the people in multi-member geographic electorates, each electing either 3 to 5 members to the House of Representatives, on the basis of Proportional Representation by means of the Single Transferable Vote.
