The following is a list of members and leaders of the 46th Legislature of the Haitian Parliament .
History
Elections
The parliamentary elections, held on 25 June, 13 August and 17 September 1995 , were won by Lavalas. Voter turnout was just 31.09% for the parliamentary elections and 27.8% for the presidential elections.[ 1] [ 2] Further parliamentary elections were held on 6 April 1997 for one-third of the seats in the Senate and two seats in the Chamber of Deputies .[ 3] A total of 45 candidates from 15 parties (including 25 independents) contested the Senate elections.
Only two candidates were elected in the first round, which was marked by a very low turnout. The second round was indefinitely postponed by the Provisional Electoral Council on 21 May due to international pressure from the Organisation of American States and threats of a boycott by the ruling Fanmi Lavalas , which claimed there had been fraud in the first round.[ 3]
Tenure
The parliament was sworn in on October 9, 1995. The majority in the parliament, led by Fanmi Lavalas, largely worked in opposition to the structural adjustment and privatization reforms supported by President René Préval . In addition, the parliament worked to delay Préval's nominations for prime minister in return for inclusion of Fanmi Lavalas appointments to cabinet posts.[ 4] He dissolved the parliament on January 11, 1999 and ruled by decree for the duration of the final year of his presidency.[ 5] [ 6] [ 7]
