History

The Caucus was reduced to 16 members following the 2013 legislative election. Zbyněk Stanjura became the Chairman.[3] Jiří Pospíšil left the Caucus in 2014 leaving it with 15 members.[4][5] Pospíšil was then elected a Member of European Parliament and lost his seat in the Chamber of Deputies. He was replaced by Vladislav Vilímec and the caucus returned to 16 seats.[6] Alfred Beznoska left the Chamber in March 2017 and was replaced by Jan Skopeček.[7]
