  • The Bijani House of Representatives vote of confidence of 2015 took place on Wednesday, January 7, 2015, the culmination of an ongoing political dispute during the 17th Bijani House of Representatives. It was triggered by a fracture in the governing Social Democratic Party, which holds 92 of the 245 seats in the House, but requires the support of two smaller parties to stay in power. The issue of no confidence was initiated into the House on January 5, 2015, by a written motion signed by 52 of the 245 representatives. In December 2014, the True Democrats, a faction of the Social Democratic Party, announced its intention to ally with the opposition parties (which together would hold a majority of seats in the House) to defeat the sitting government on a motion of no confidence, thereby forcing the resignation of the government, and likely triggering an extraordinary election. On January 7, the House voted on a resolution expressing no confidence in the Government, which passed with 136 members voting in favor, 107 voting against, and two members abstaining. Following the House's withdrawal of confidence, the Government led by Chief Minister Jakovo Ostaras submitted its resignation to President Hanna Roggeveen on the afternoon of January 7. On January 8, the constitutional requirements having been met, the outgoing Government advised the President to declare an extraordinary election to the House of Representatives.
