Parliamentary elections were held for the first time in the United Arab Emirates between 16 and 20 December 2006 to elect half of the 40 members of Federal National Council. Voting took place in Abu Dhabi and Fujairah on 16 December, in Dubai and Ras Al Khaimah on 18 December, and in Sharjah, Ajman and Umm Al Quwain on 20 December.[1]

Electoral system

The 40 members of the Federal National Council consisted of 20 elected members and 20 members appointed by the rulers of each emirate.

The elections were held using electoral colleges, with only 6,595 of more than 300,000 citizens over 18 years allowed to vote, of which 1,163 were women.[2][3] The electoral college members were chosen by the rulers of the seven emirates.[4]

Results

Only one woman was elected (Amal Al Qubaisi in Abu Dhabi) and eight were amongst the appointed members announced on 4 February 2007.[5][6] Umm Al Qaiwain was the only emirate without female representation.
