The 48th New Zealand Parliament will, when MPs are sworn in, be the next term of the Parliament of New Zealand. Its composition was determined by the 2005 elections.
The Labour Party and the Progressive Party, backed by New Zealand First and United Future, established a majority at the beginning the 48th Parliament. The Labour-led administration is in its third term. The National Party and ACT form the formal opposition to the government. Other non-government parties are the Greens (who promised to abstain on confidence and supply votes) and the Maori Party.
The 48th Parliament consists of 121 representatives. This represents an overhang of one seat, with the Maori Party having won one more electorates than its share of the vote would otherwise have given it. In total, sixty-nine of the MPs were chosen by geographical electorates, including seven Maori electorates. The remainder were elected by means of party-list proportional representation under the MMP electoral system.
