This is the first time that three qualified lawyers are part of the legislature. They are Mr Natan Teewe from Abemama joins the BTK while the other two Banuera Benina from TUC and Katarake Tebweao from North Tarawa are newly elected MPs and we are not yet sure what party they are most likely to join. This will be determined after the first meeting of the Parliament sometimes this Month to nominate the Speaker and the four candidates to the Presidential Election.
