Solomon Islands Prime Minister Jeremiah Manele has survived another motion of no confidence in his leadership. Despite maturing on Monday, and being available to be moved today, the no-confidence motion did not appear on the order paper this morning. Parliament sat briefly only to be adjourned until this afternoon, when it was finally confirmed that the mover of the motion, Central Honiara MP Gordon Darcy Lilo, had withdrawn it.

Notice of a motion of no confidence in Solomon Islands Prime Minister Jeremiah Manele was registered with the Speaker of the House today. The clerk of parliament, Jefferson Hallu, confirmed Central Honiara MP Gordon Darcy Lilo submitted the motion this afternoon. Parliament adjourned this morning due to a lack of a quorum after only sixteen out of 49 MPs attended. A source within government says several cabinet ministers have deserted the Prime Minister and are in talks with the Opposition.
