Following are the steps taken by the Belgium government to accommodate regional differences:
(i) Equal number of minister in the central government: Belgium 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 majority of members from each linguistic group. Thus, no single community can make decisions unilaterally.
(ii) Decentralisation of powers: Many powers of the central government have been given to state governments of the two regions of the country. The state governments are not subordinate to the Central Government.
(iii) Separate government in Capital: City Brussels has a separate government in which both the communities have equal representation. The French- speaking people accepted equal representation in Brussels because the Dutch- speaking community has accepted equal representation in the Central Government.
