The '''48th New Zealand Parliament''' is the current term of the [[New Zealand Parliament|Parliament]] of [[New Zealand]]. Its composition was determined by the [[New Zealand general election, 2005|2005 elections]].
The [[New Zealand Labour Party|Labour Party]] and the [[New Zealand Progressive Party|Progressive Party]], backed by [[New Zealand First]] and [[United Future New Zealand|United Future]], established a majority at the beginning the 48th Parliament. The Labour-led administration is in its third term. The [[New Zealand National Party|National Party]] and [[ACT New Zealand|ACT]] form the formal opposition to the government. Other non-government parties are the [[Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand|Greens]] (who promised to abstain on confidence and supply votes) and the [[Māori Party]].
The 48th Parliament consists of 121 representatives. This represents an [[overhang seat|overhang]] of one seat, with the Māori 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 [[Māori seats|Māori electorates]]. The remainder were elected by means of [[party-list proportional representation]] under the [[Mixed Member Proportional|MMP]] electoral system.
==Oath of office==
