The Government must have the confidence of both Houses. Each House shall grant or withdraw its confidence through a reasoned motion to be voted on by roll call. Within ten days of being formed, the Government shall go before the Houses to seek their confidence. A vote by one or both Houses to reject a Government proposal shall not entail an obligation for the Government to resign. A motion of no-confidence must be signed by at least one-tenth of the members of a House and may be debated no earlier than three days after having been laid before it.
