You can use this website to get information about MPs in Papua New Guinea’s 11th parliament (following the July 2022 elections) and 10th parliament
All currently available data on the 11th parliament can be downloaded here. Data is available for the time of elections (July 2022), the time of government formation (August 2022), the end of 2023, and the current time (this is referred to as the ‘latest’ data, and corresponds to the last update). Last update was on 8 September 2024.
Data on the 10th parliament can be downloaded here.
You can also use the below interactive data explorer to look at MP data for both the 11th and the 10th parliaments:
Data on both the new (11th) and old (10th) Parliaments are available above. Use the labelled buttons to navigate between the different tables. The first three tabs relate to the 11th Parliament (2022-2027) elections, and give information that is current, as well as that which held at the time of government formation, and at the time of elections. This information is presented by MP (“11th Plt – MPs”), by party (11th Plt – Parties”) and by summary graphs (“11th Plt – Summary”). The last three tabs relate to the 10th Parliament (2017-2022), and give end-of-term (June 2022) as well as historical information. Click on “Time” to get information at different or all points of time.
Full names of political parties are given in the parties tables and abbreviations in the MP tables. To see which MPs belong to which party, use the MP tab.
If a seat is not occupied, the member name is given as ‘Vacant’. If a party has no members, it is included because at some point in the 10th or 11th Parliament (depending on the table) it had at least one member. The “Leader” column is only filled in if and once the Parliamentary leader has been declared elected. The number of terms includes the current Parliament.
An introduction to the database is available here. For more about the database, visit the About page. For variable definitions, see the list of variable definitions in the About page.
