[edit] Name of article

Wonder if this article is correctly named as Fono or whether it should be either Fono Aoao Faitulafono, Fono Aoao Faitulafono a Samoa or the English name Legislative Assembly of Samoa. Nurg 11:07, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

I'd favour the Samoan name, but I'd need to dig up exactly what it is first. At the least it should be mentioned in the introduction IdiotSavant (talk) 14:16, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

There's a significant amount of material available on the Fono's Official website which could be incorporated. I've also added a list of terms of parliament similar to that used in the article on the Parliament of New Zealand (and it can be slowly developed in the same way). At the moment this includes links for the pre-independence Legislative Assembly, but this can always be spun off into a seperate page if enough material is added.
