Royal Decree
Dissolving the House of People's Representatives,
2519 BE

Bhumibol Adulyadej R
Given on the 12th day of January 2519 BE
Being the 31st year of the present reign

Phra Bat Somdet Phra Paramin Maha Bhumibol Adulyadej gives a great royal command by which He orders with His pleasure that it be announced as follows:

As the Prime Minister has humbly made the following submission to Him: The present House of People's Representatives is composed of various political parties, but none of the political parties has a number of elected Members of the House of People's Representatives ​sufficient for forming a government, making it necessary for a government to be formed by a coalition of many political parties, which results in obstacle to the handling of the public services of the State and casts a great impact upon the stability of the government, and even though the government would be formed anew, the obstacle so described would still continue, which would lead to decadence of the administration under the democratic regime. It is appropriate to dissolve the House of People's Representatives in order to enable a general election of new Members of the House of People's Representatives;

Therefore, by virtue of the powers under the stipulations of section 122 and section 192 of the Constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand, He orders with His gracious pleasure that the following Royal Decree be enacted:

Section1.This Royal Decree is called the "Royal Decree Dissolving the House of People's Representatives, 2519 BE".

Section2.This Royal Decree shall come into force from the day of its publication in the Royal Gazette onwards.

Section3.The House of People's Representatives shall be dissolved.

Section4.A general election of new Members of the House of People's Representatives shall take place on the 4th day of April 2519 BE.

​Section5.The Minister of Interior shall be in charge of the execution of this Royal Decree.

Countersignatory:
Mom Ratchawong Kukrit Pramoj
Prime Minister
