In a number of states Parliament has the power to dissolve itself by a decision passed by a simple majority – Austria, Croatia, Hungary, Turkey, “the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia” - a qualified majority - Bosnia-Herzegovina, Cyprus - or a majority of two thirds – Kyrgyzstan, Poland - or three-fifths – Lithuania - of its (elected) members. Sometimes the decision to dissolve is not taken by Parliament itself, but needs the approval of the majority of Parliament. This type of dissolution can be opted for when Parliament is of the opinion that political developments make it desirable to hold early elections.
