The 15th Parliament of Singapore will be the meeting of the Singaporean Parliament. It will be opened by President Tharman Shanmugaratnam on 5 September 2025.[1] The members of the upcoming Parliament were elected in the 2025 Singaporean general election.
As was the case in the previous parliament, this parliament will be controlled by the People's Action Party's (PAP) majority, and will be led by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong. There will be 108 seats in this Parliament – 97 elected, 2 Non-constituency Members of Parliament, and 9 Nominated Members of Parliament. For the first time since the 13th Parliament elected in 2015, there will be only one opposition party – the Workers' Party (WP) – which is led by Pritam Singh, the first de jure Leader of the Opposition (who is expected to continue in this role). The WP will control 10 elected and 2 NCMP seats, giving it a representation of 12 seats – the largest representation for any single opposition party (surpassing its own record of 10 seats in the previous parliament). On 20 June 2025, the Prime Minister's Office announced the renomination of incumbent speaker Seah Kian Peng for another term.[2]
