I prefer the mixed system of 50% of the legislature elected in
individual districts and the other 50% from a party list system
[MMP]. The number of districts should equal one-half of the number
of seats in the legislature. In this way one-half of the MLAs are
elected in districts and the remaining seats are elected from party
lists according to the number of votes obtained by each party.
I think it is important to have members elected in the districts in
order that they can bring up local issues. At the same time the
political parties must be represented proportionally to the number
of votes they receive, as far as possible.
Thank you for the opportunity. These are complex issues and I hope
that what I have said makes some sense.
