Why?
The Constitution says that after an interpellation the Seimas may express no confidence in the Prime Minister or a minister "by a majority vote of half of all the members of the Seimas", which means that more than half of all members of the Seimas must vote in favour. All members of the Seimas are counted, not only those present at the sitting. (Article 61 of the Constitution)
