The meeting adopted a "mainstream" political model consisting of 18 directly elected seats in 1997, the balance being composed of 30 indirectly elected seats and 12 Grand Electoral College seats. Under this model, the number of directly elected seats would increase to 24 (40%) in 1999 and 30 (50%) in 2003.
