The 13th Parliament of Sri Lanka, known officially as the 6th Parliament of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka, was a meeting of the Parliament of Sri Lanka, with the membership determined by the results of the 2004 parliamentary election held on 2 April 2004. The parliament met for the first time on 22 April 2004 and was dissolved on 9 February 2010.

## Election

The new parliament was sworn in on 22 April 2004. W. J. M. Lokubandara, the opposition's candidate, was elected Speaker after three dramatic rounds of voting in Parliament. The parliament reconvened on 18 May 2004 to elect unopposed Gitanjana Gunawardena as Deputy Speaker and M. Satchithanandan as the Deputy Chairman of Committees.

## Government

The UPFA was able to form a minority government with the support of the sole Eelam People's Democratic Party MP.
On 6 April 2004, President Chandrika Kumaratunga appointed Mahinda Rajapaksa, the leader of the UPFA, as the new prime minister. The rest of the government, comprising 30 ministers and 31 deputy ministers, was sworn in on 10 April 2004. President Kumaratunga retained control over the important ministries of Defence, Public Security, Law & Order, Highways, Education and Buddha Sasana.
Shortly afterwards, a number of defections and counter-defections from the opposition increased the size of the government to 129 MPs, most of whom were rewarded with ministerial posts. This allowed the UPFA form a stable government which lasted six years.
Following the expiration of the second term of President Kumaratunga, Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa won the 2005 presidential elections. Rajapaksa was succeeded as prime minister by Ratnasiri Wickremanayake.
By January 2007, the government had grown to a size of 104 (52 ministers + 33 non-cabinet ministers + 19 deputy ministers), and by the end of the 13th parliament, would further increase to 109. There were only a handful of UPFA MPs without any ministerial position. The government was the largest government in Sri Lanka's history and proportionally one of the largest in the world, and was fittingly known as the "Jumbo Cabinet" due to its sheer size.

## Changes in party/alliance affiliations

The 13th parliament saw a number of defections and counter-defections:
* 18 May 2004 – One SLMC MP (Hussain Ahamed Bhaila) joins the UPFA government.
* 9 August 2004 – 2 SLMC MPs (M. N. Abdul Majeed, Rishad Bathiudeen) join the UPFA government.

* 28 January 2007 – 18 UNP MPs and 6 SLMC MPs join the UPFA.
