Who Sits in Papua New Guinea's National Parliament? A Complete List of the 118 Members

Papua New Guinea’s National Parliament is a unicameral body of 118 members, each elected from a single-member electorate. The 11th Parliament was elected in July 2022 and runs to 2027. Of its 118 seats, 22 belong to provincial governors, who represent the province as a whole (including the National Capital District and Bougainville). The other 96 are “open” seats, each covering one district within a province.

The roster below is grouped by region and province and numbered from 1 to 118. It reflects by-elections held through 2026. It’s compiled from Wikipedia’s list of the 11th Parliament, because the official parliament.gov.pg members page doesn’t display its list when fetched. Members are shown as Name (party), seat.
