General Fono

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The General Fono is the parliament of Tokelau. It has 20 members (15 before 2008), representing the 3 atolls. Elections are held every three years.

Tokelau is a de facto non-partisan democracy since both village and Fono elections are made without political parties.[1]
