Information on the above-mentioned topic could not be found among the sources consulted by the DIRB.

The party reportedly won seven seats in the Legislative Council (Ibid., p. 3).
This Response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the DIRB within time constraints. This Response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.
