The Consultative Assembly consists of approximately 3,000 to 5,000 people. It meets once a year over a week-long period. It consists of citizens selected by lottery. The Members of Parliament who sit in the Consultative Assembly are required to be Packilvanian citizens between the ages of 25 and 65. They must not have had a criminal record or their record should have been expunged. Most members are [[Paxism|Paxists]] by default but some seats are set aside for [[Religion in Packilvania|religious minorities]]. Citizens who reside in other countries on a full-time basis are generally not invited or expected to attend. Prospective members are normally told at least a year in advance that they have been selected and they have 6 months to signal that they cannot attend. Attendance is mandatory and the government normally makes arrangements for delegates to participate. At least 30% of the members are required to be women and at least 30% are required to be below the age of 35 years old.
