The Social Democratic Party (PSD) members of the Romanian Parliament, along with the Conservative Party (PC) Alliance (in opposition), and the National Liberal Party (PNL - in opposition) submitted the motion of no-confidence against the Boc Government. The document is named 'The No-Confidence Motion of Majority Romania, People's Motion.'

It is signed and endorsed by 209 parliamentarians of the PSD+ PC and the PNL groups and the motion of no-confidence was proposed for voting in the plenary meeting on October 27. The due dates and procedures are yet to be established.

The Government led by Emil Boc – which is now at its fourth form, after a reshuffle earlier this year – went through a vote of no confidence same time last year. The motion passed and the then Government was dismissed, but after Traian Basescu was re-elected as president and after several failed attempts to name a new prime minister, Emil Boc was again chosen to lead the Government.
