fraction	Seats

Although the DP and the GB / BHE merged to form the GDP in April 1961 , both factions remained independent, GB / BHE in the government and DP in the opposition. On October 30, 1961, a GDP state party conference decided to continue to support the government, but as a result 18 of 20 members of the former DP converted to the CDU, so that from March 29, 1962 only two members (Hinrich Brunckhorst and Fritz Winkelmann) remained as non-attached.
