The Parliament of Tuvalu (called Fale i Fono in Tuvaluan, or Palamene o Tuvalu) is the unicameral national legislature of Tuvalu. The place at which the parliament sits is called the Vaiaku maneapa.[2] The maneapa on each island is an open meeting place where the chiefs and elders deliberate and make decisions.[2]
The 16 members of the current parliament are elected from eight two-seat constituencies via plurality block voting.[3][4][5]
