Section 13 Calculation and Allocation of seats to electoral region members

2. For each registered political party by which a list of candidates has been submitted for the Senedh electoral region—
   1. there is to be added together the number of electoral region votes given for the party in the Senedh constituencies included in the Senedh electoral region, and

3. For each individual candidate to be a Senedh regional member for the Senedh electoral region there is to be added together the number of electoral region votes given for the candidate in the Senedh constituencies included in the Senedh electoral region.

   2. in the case of an individual candidate, under subsection (3),
   is referred to in this Act as the electoral region figure for that party or individual candidate.
5. The first seat for the Senedh electoral region is to be allocated to the party or individual candidate with the highest electoral region figure.
6. The second and subsequent seats for the Senedh electoral region are to be allocated to the party or individual candidate with the highest electoral region figure after any recalculation required by subsection (7) has been carried out.
7. This subsection requires a recalculation under paragraph (b) of subsection (3) in relation to a party—
   1. for the first application of subsection (6), if the application of subsection (5) resulted in the allocation of a Senedh seat to the party, or
   2. for any subsequent application of subsection (6), if the previous application of that subsection did so,
   and a recalculation is to be carried out after adding one to the aggregate mentioned in that paragraph.
8. An individual candidate already returned as an Senedh constituency member or Senedh regional member is to be disregarded.
9. Seats for the Senedh electoral region which are allocated to a party are to be filled by the persons on the party’s list in the order in which they appear on the list (disregarding anyone already returned as a Senedh constituency member, including anyone whose return is void).
10. Once a party’s list has been exhausted (by the return of persons included on it as Senedh constituency members or by the previous application of subsection (5) or (6)), the party is to be disregarded.
11. If (on the application of subsection (5) or any application of subsection (6)) the highest electoral region figure is the electoral region figure of two or more parties or individual candidates, the subsection applies to each of them.
12. However, if subsection (11) would mean that more than the full number of seats for the Senedh electoral region were allocated, subsection (5) or (6) does not apply until—
13. a recalculation has been carried out under subsection (3)(b) after adding one to the number of votes given for each party with that electoral region figure, and
14. one has been added to the number of votes given for each individual candidate with that electoral region figure.

5. But if there is more than one person who satisfies the conditions in subsection (3), the regional returning officer may only notify the name of whichever of them was the higher, or the highest, on that list.
6. A person whose name is notified under subsection (2) is to be treated as having been declared to be returned as a Senedh regional member for the Senedh electoral region on the day on which notification of the person’s name is received by the Presiding Officer.
7. The seat remains vacant until the next general election—
   1. if the Senedh regional member was returned as an individual candidate, or
   2. if that Senedh regional member was returned from the list of a registered political party but there is no-one who satisfies the conditions in subsection (3).
8. For the purposes of this section, a person included on the list submitted by a registered political party for the last general election who—
   1. was returned as a Member of the Senedh at that election (even if the return was void), or
