The main elements of the Belgium model of power-sharing include :
i. Constitution prescribes that the number of Dutch and French-speaking ministers shall be equal in the Central Government. Some special laws require the support of the majority of members from each linguistic group. Thus, no single community can make decisions unilaterally.
ii. Many powers of the Central Government have been given to State Governments of the two regions of the country.
iii. The Belgium model introduced a new concept of the third kind of government, i,e. the communist government. This government is elected by the people belonging to one language community.
