List of members of the Legislative Assembly of Samoa (2021–2026)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from 17th Samoan Parliament)

Members of the Legislative Assembly of Samoa were elected on 9 April 2021. According to preliminary results, the 51 members consisted of 25 representatives of Fa'atuatua i le Atua Samoa ua Tasi (FAST), 25 from the Human Rights Protection Party (HRPP), one from the Tautua Samoa Party and one independent.[1][2] Official results were declared on 16 April, resulting in some change to individual winners, but no change to the overall balance of power.[3] Election petitions subsequently saw four HRPP MPs unseated, and three more resign as part of settlements.
