Finland seems to be the country of no-confidence votes, with the possible exception of Romania.

Anyway, this time the government faced a motion that was lodged by the Finns. The motion criticised the government’s plans to reorganise and scale back the armed forces.

The vote was held on 2 March and the government won the vote by 106 votes to 69.

As I understand it, there will be another motion of no-confidence on 9 March. This time, the issue will be the reform of municipal government.
