Current New Zealand parliamentary term
The 54th New Zealand Parliament is the current meeting of the legislature in New Zealand . It opened on 5 December 2023 following the 14 October 2023 general election , and will expire on or before 16 November 2026 to trigger the next election .
The Parliament was elected using a mixed-member proportional representation (MMP) voting system. MPs will represent 72 geographical electorates: 16 in the South Island , 49 in the North Island and 7 Māori electorates . The Electoral Act 1993 provides for the remaining seats to be elected from party lists using the Sainte-Laguë method to realise proportionality to an expected total of at least 120 MPs.[1]
Final results of the election determined that there are 123 members of Parliament, rather than the usual 120. 122 members were elected in the general election (there is an overhang of two members for Te Pāti Māori ).[2] [3] Due to the death of a candidate between the close of nominations and election day, Port Waikato did not elect a representative and an additional list MP was elected to ensure Parliament would have at least 120 members. The 72nd electorate MP, and 123rd MP overall, was elected in the Port Waikato by-election on 25 November 2023.[4]
Members in the 54th Parliament represent six political parties : National , ACT New Zealand , New Zealand First parties, in government , and the Labour Party , Green Party , and Te Pāti Māori , in opposition . Christopher Luxon of the National Party formed a coalition government with ACT and New Zealand First and was sworn in as prime minister on 27 November 2023.[5] [6]
Background
2023 general election
The 2023 general election was held on 14 October. The opposition National Party won 48 seats in the election, an increase of 14 seats. The ruling Labour Party was reduced to 34 seats after losing a total of 28 seats. The Green Party , Labour's cooperation partner, got 15 seats, a rise of 6. The ACT Party increased its seat count by one. Te Pāti Māori took five Maori seats from Labour, totaling six seats, one more than their party vote entitled them to, giving parliament a three-seat overhang. After being voted out in the 2020 New Zealand general election , New Zealand First returned to parliament, earning eight seats.[7]
Following the general election, the National Party required support from the ACT Party and New Zealand First to command the confidence of the House.[8] Negotiations between the three parties took place after the official results were announced on 3 November. After three weeks of negotiations, Christopher Luxon announced the formation of a coalition government with ACT and New Zealand First on 24 November.[5] On 27 November, Luxon was sworn in as prime minister by Governor-General Dame Cindy Kiro .[6]
Parliamentary term
The final results of the election were announced on 3 November and the writ for the 2023 election was returned on 16 November 2023.[9] [10] Under section 19 of Constitution Act 1986, Parliament must meet no later than six weeks after this date; on 29 November 2023, following the new government's first Cabinet meeting, Leader of the House Chris Bishop confirmed that the Commission Opening and State Opening of Parliament would take place on 5 and 6 December 2023, respectively.

Major legislation
In December 2023, the Government repealed several of the previous Labour Government 's legislation and policies including the Reserve Bank of New Zealand 's dual mandate, the Fair Pay Agreements Act 2022 , the Clean Car Discount programme, the Natural and Built Environment Act 2023 and the Spatial Planning Act 2023 .[15] [16] [17] [18] On 21 December, the Government passed legislation reinstating 90-day work trials.[19] In February 2024, the Government repealed the Three Waters reform programme , Smokefree Environments and Regulated Products (Smoked Tobacco) Amendment Act 2022 and disestablished Te Aka Whai Ora (the Māori Health Authority) under urgency.[20] [21] [22]
Workplace behaviour
In early May 2024, Green Party MP Julie Anne Genter was referred to Parliament's privileges committee following complaints that she intimidated National Party 's MP Matt Doocey during a heated parliamentary exchange.[23]
Dissolution
The 54th Parliament will serve until another election is called. Under section 17 of the Constitution Act 1986 , Parliament expires three years "from the day fixed for the return of the writs issued for the last preceding general election of members of the House of Representatives, and no longer".[24] The writ for the 2023 election was issued on 10 September 2023 and returned on 16 November 2023, meaning that the 54th Parliament would have to dissolve on or before 16 November 2026.

The number of Pasifika MPs, 6, is also down from the record number in the previous parliament, and is at its lowest number in 10 years.[32] [33] There are currently no Pasifika MPs on the government benches.
Only 5 MPs who publicly identify as LGBTQIA+ were elected, 2 each from Labour and the Greens and 1 from ACT. This is down from a record 12 (10%) elected in the 2020 election.[34]
