The deal was that each year during elections, an Assistant Treasurer was elected. At the end of that period, they'd be up for a "confidence" vote. To fail that vote, they'd need to lose by a 3/4 to 1/4 margin.
Then, they'd be treasurer for a year, a new Assistant would be elected, etc.

Same idea of people saying that you're doing a good job or not. It's not usually used in the way that sdbeta was talking about.
