Elections were held in Indonesia on 15 December 1955 to elect the 514 members of the Constitutional Assembly. The Provisional Constitution of 1950 had provided for the establishment of a democratically-elected body to draw up a permanent constitution. In April 1953, the House of Representatives passed the election bill. The elections for the house were set for September 1955, while those for the Constitutional Assembly were held three months later.
