Lower house to convene for no-confidence vote in Fiala government next week

The lower house will convene for a no-confidence vote in the Fiala government on Tuesday, January 17, Deputy Speaker Věra Kovářová announced on Friday. The no-confidence vote has been instigated by the opposition ANO party, which collected enough signatures to push it though. The party claims the government is not doing enough to address people’s problems. However since the ruling coalition has a majority in the lower house, it is certain to survive the no-confidence motion.
