| Message | Vote of no confidence passed by who? The Stortinget or the local parliament? So, if you have 2/3rds of the vote in a parliament you control the Herramark govt. If not, the largest party controls it so long as someone (see above question) doesn't pass a vote of no confidence. Whosoever does control the Herramark gets to decide what the laws of that Herramark are? If a no-confidence votes passes, who controls it then? Second largest? |
