The 6th German Bundestag, the lower houseofparliament of the Federal Republic of Germany, was elected on 28 September 1969 and existed between 20 October 1969 and 13 December 1972. It held a total of 199 parliamentary sessions.

On 21 October 1969 the Bundestag elected Willy Brandt (SPD) as federal Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany[a] with 251(+14)[b] yes votes , 235 (+8)[b] no votes, 4 invalid votes and 5 abstentions on the first ballot.

Presidium of the Bundestag[edit]

William Born (FDP) served as Alterspräsident (Father of the House) and presided over the Konstituierende Sitzung [de], the first parliamentary session, until Kai-Uwe von Hassel was elected as President of the Bundestag.[1][2]

On 28 October 1969 Carlo Schmid, Herman Schmitt-Vockenhausen (both SPD), Richard Jeager (CDU) and Liselotte Funcke (FDP) were elected as vice presidents of the Bundestag in on ballot with a big majority.[3]

Kai-Uwe von Hassel was elected President of the Bundestag with 411 yes votes, 72 no votes and 34 abstentions on 20 October 1969. This corresponded to 79,5% of the vote. A better result than in his first election in February 1969 after the resignation of his predecessor Eugen Gerstenmaier.[4]

Composition of the Bundestag[edit]

Although the CDU/CSU remained the largest party in the Bundestag the SPD and FDP formed a coalition government with Willy Brandt becoming the frist SPD Chancellor in the history of the Federal Republic of Germany. The CDU/CSU won 242 seats as well as eight non-voting delegates from West Berlin. The SDP increased their seat count to 224 as well as 13 non-voting delegates from West Berlin while the FDP barley remained in the Bundestag. They got 30 seats as well as one non-voting delegate from West Berlin. Due to changes in the parliamentary caucauses the SPD/FDP coalition lost their majority with resulted in a constructive vote of no confidence. However Willy Brandt remained in power due to the dissent of two members of the Bundestag.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

    Notes[edit]

    1. ^ Although this was (and still is) the official name of the country. It was commonly referred to as West Germany
  • ^ a b During the existence of West Germany the Abgeordnetenhaus of Berlin elected representitves to the Bundestag for West Berlin. But since they were prohibited by an international treaty to participate in Germanys legislative process, their votes were trivial.
