# Sixth government of Jordi Pujol

The sixth government of Jordi Pujol was formed on 30 November 1999 following the latter's reelection as President of Catalonia by the Parliament of Catalonia on 16 November 1999 and his swearing-in on 29 November 1999, as a result of the Socialists' Party of Catalonia (PSC) and the opposition falling one seat short of a parliamentary majority at the 1995 Catalan regional election, thus allowing Convergence and Union (CiU) to continue to rule with the external support of the People's Party (PP). It succeeded the fifth Pujol government and was the Government of Catalonia from 30 November 1999 to 22 December 2003, a total of 1,483 days, or 4 years and 22 days
The cabinet was an all-CiU government, comprising members of the Democratic Convergence of Catalonia (CDC) and its sister party, the Democratic Union of Catalonia (UDC). It was automatically dismissed on 17 November 2003 as a consequence of the 2003 regional election, but remained in acting capacity until the next government was sworn in.
