[1] Northern Cyprus is divided into five constituencies, electing a total of 50 members of the Assembly by proportional representation.

[1] Under the Turkish Cypriot constitution, the members of the new parliament must gather to be sworn in 10 days after the results are officially published.

Soon after this first session, President Rauf Denktaş had to decide whom to ask building a government.

As a result he asked Mehmet Ali Talat of the Republican Turkish Party (CTP) to form the next government.

As a result a coalition relying on a narrow majority of 26 out of 50 seats was built.
