The group, from Central Bougainville, is putting up a number of proposals — one that its clan leaders and chiefs be automatically allowed a place in the yet to be established upper house of parliament without having to face the voters.
The president’s first secretary, Dennis Kuiai, said such a plan is possible.
“The Bougainville constitution does provide for the establishment of an upper house after giving recognition to the clan structure to the chiefs in the villages,” he said.
The president has already met faction leaders of South Bougainville to hear their requests and ideas to keep the reconciliation process progressing.
