EstablishedA 2019 decree of the German-speaking Community of Belgium created a permanent Citizens' Council and temporary citizens' assemblies, both selected by lot, which formulate recommendations; elected representatives and the minister then decide whether and how to implement them. This is a partial parallel, not a lot-selected legislature.
