General elections were held in
Belgium on 10 March 1974.[1] The
Belgian Socialist Party emerged as the largest faction in the
Chamber of Representatives with 59 of the 212 seats. Voter turnout was 90.3%.[2] Elections were also held for the nine provincial councils, as well as for the Council of the German Cultural Community for the first time.
In this election, the new Council of the German Cultural Community (Rat der deutschen Kulturgemeinschaft) was directly elected for the first time; members of the council had been appointed a year earlier. The council is the precursor to the
Parliament of the German-speaking Community.
