The party received only 5.6% of votes and 10 seats in the actual election. The low support of Sieť was one of many surprises of the election.[9] Sieť became part of governing coalition led by Smer which led to split in the party and another loss of support and departure of members including 3 MPs. Sieť fell to 1% in polls.[10] Procházka was replaced by Roman Brecely in August 2016.[11][12] 5 MPs led by Andrej Hrnčiar then left the party with intention to join Most-Híd. This left Sieť with only 2 MPs.[13]
Prime Minister Robert Fico announced on 19 August that Sieť ministers will resign and Sieť will be integrated into one of other coalition parties.[14] In January 2017, Sieť announced that it would be integrated into small Slovak party European Democratic Party. Integration was likely to happen in Spring 2017.[15]
When Radoslav Procházka decided to give up on his seat, Sieť lost another MP. Procházka was replaced by Zuzana Simenová who decided to be independent.[16] On 3 May 2017, Sieť lost its last MP.[17]
Roman Brecely resigned as the party's leader on 10 May 2017. Marek Čepko became acting leader.[18] On 10 September 2017, Ivan Zuzula was elected the new leader.[19]
Sieť announced in June 2018 that it will change its name to Slovak Conservative Party.[20] The name was changed on 4 July 2018.[21]
In July 2021, SKS signed a memorandum with KDH which included that SKS will join KDH. At this point the party had several hundred members with 40 to 50 active ones.[22] Their website has been offline since February 2022.[23]
