Egyptian parliamentary elections to the House of Representatives were held in two phases, from 17 October to 2 December 2015.[1] The elected parliament will be entrusted with the task of reviewing the laws that were passed while a parliament was not in session.[2]

In preparation for the election, security was tightened across the country with at least 185,000 troops supporting police, president Sisi made a televised appeal for Egyptians to vote, and in mid-October, public sector employees were given half a day's holiday to encourage them to take part. The strikingly low turnout, in some areas close to only 10%, with "many angry at the government and its policies", was widely regarded as a set-back for the administration and a success for calls to boycotts from oppositional movements.[3]
