Membership changesNuqingaq was expelled from the legislature on October 24, 2014 after repeatedly engaging in disorderly and inappropriate conduct,[4] vacating Uqqummiut and resulting in a by-election which was held on February 9, 2015. The by-election was won by Pauloosie Keyootak.[5] Ugyuk, who was chosen as the Family Services Minister, lost a non-confidence vote on 7 November 2015, during a leadership review of the cabinet. As a result of the non-confidence vote a motion was made to remove Ugyuk from cabinet.[6] On 9 November, prior to discussion on the motion, Ugyuk resigned both from cabinet and as MLA and the motion was withdrawn.[7] A by-election was held in February 2016, and was won by Emilino Qirngnuq.[8] References1. ^1 "2 seats tied, Eva Aariak loses in Nunavut election".
