The Parliament opens on the 10^th of November of the beginning of each term (four years) and closes on the 11^th of November of the ending of each term year. The Members of the Parliament are elected according to Article 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19 of this Constitution, and thus the Parliament is formed. The newly elected Members of the Parliament start their duties with and oath on the 12^th of November.

Thus, any person in the Parliament who has already been elected as the Member of the Parliament is found guilty because of his tie with the government of China will be ousted from the Government immediately. This law is equally applicable to all members, including the President and all Ministers in the Government. The Parliament is composed of democratically elected Members of Parliament by the citizens of East Turkistan. Officers of the Army and the Police forces in service may not be elected as the Members of Parliament. However, they may be elected on condition that they resign from their duties at least 3 months prior to the election. One Member of Parliament is elected for every 60 thousand citizens throughout the country. However, in the case of the Parliament-In-Exile, the numbers of the Members of the Parliament are decided based on the size of the East Turkistanis in a particular country where the Members of the Parliament live according to the principles accepted by the Founding Parliament. In any case, the number of the Members of the Parliament-In-Exile may not be less than 60. The staff members of the Parliament are appointed by the Chairman of Parliament. In case of those Members of the Parliament that have died or left their post for other reasons new Members of Parliament are elected within the period decided by the Decree of the Parliament through an election to be held where they were elected.
