Ian Paisley Jr has avoided a by-election after a petition to recall the North Antrim MP failed to reach the necessary threshold.
9.4% of constituents signed the petition - short of the 10% needed to force a by-election.
The process was triggered over the MP's failure to declare two luxury family holidays that were paid for by the Sri Lankan government.
He received a 30-day suspension from the House of Commons over the controversy.
