Papua New Guinea's parliament has been adjourned to May, meaning prime minister Peter O'Neill has avoided facing a vote of no-confidence this month. The opposition had sought to table a motion of no-confidence against Mr O'Neill this month as the grace period on such motions expired today. However the Speaker allowed parliament to begin early this year, and subsequently adjourned it for three months. In the meantime, the government has filed a Supreme Court reference seeking clarification on parliament procedure powers over votes of no confidence against the prime minister. source: Radio New Zealand Comments are closed.
