Brussels (Flemish Parliament constituency) explained

Brussels
Type:Flemish Parliament
Year:2004
Seats:6

Brussels is a parliamentary constituency in Belgium used to elect members of the Flemish Parliament since 2004. It corresponds to the Brussels Capital Region.[1]

The election coincides with the one for the (bilingual) Brussels Parliament; voters who vote for a Dutch-language list for the Brussels Parliament can subsequently vote for members of the Flemish Parliament. This direct election was introduced in 2001; previously the members were appointed by the Dutch-speaking elected members of the Brussels Parliament.

The members elected in this district may only vote on matters for the Flemish Community, not on matters for the Flemish Region.
