Parliamentary Procedures are rules that dictate the proper format of meetings.  These rules cover both corporate meetings as well as political sessions, thus the 'Parlimentary'.

Using Australia:\n\nFederal Parliament and State Parliament execute different powers, but they both have the same level of power in relations to their allowed powers. They can pass, amend, vote, and reject bills, and can also amend old laws not in the constitution. They can call for a referendum for a change in the constitution, and they appoint the judges in the judicial system (well, the government does anyway).

The House of Commons is the lower house of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Parliament also includes the Sovereign and the upper house, the House of Lords; the House of Commons is the dominant branch. The House of Commons is a democratically elected body, consisting of 646 members, who are known as "Members of Parliament" or MPs. Members are elected by the first-past-the-post system of election, holding office until Parliament is dissolved (a maximum of five years). Each member is elected by, and represents, an electoral district known as a constituency. The House of Commons is the source of the vast majority of government ministers and every Prime Minister since 1902, with the very brief exception of Sir Alec Douglas-Home in 1963, has been drawn from it (Home did actually rule from the House of Commons, however, taking a seat in the House shortly after being chosen as Prime Minister).\n\nThe House of Commons evolved at some point during the 14th century and has been in continuous existence since. The House of Commons (the "lower house") was once far less powerful than the House of Lords (the "upper house"), but is now by far the dominant branch of Parliament. The House of Commons' legislative powers exceed those of the House of Lords; under the Parliament Act 1911, the Lords' power to reject most bills was reduced to a mere delaying power. Moreover, the Government of the United Kingdom is answerable to the House of Commons; the Prime Minister stays in office only as long as he or she retains the support of the lower house.\n\nThe full, formal style and title of the House of Commons is The Honourable the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in Parliament assembled. The term "Commons" derives from the Norman French word communes, referring to the geographic and collective communities of their representatives. It is often misunderstood that "Commons" comes from the word "commoners", referring to those sitting in the House, similar to the way in which the name "House of Lords" indicates that those sitting in the "Other Place" are elevated to the Peerage. This explanation, however, is ahistorical. Both Houses, the Commons and Lords, meet in the Palace of Westminster. Both Houses have in the past met elsewhere, and retain the right to do so, provided the Mace is present.

not many countries have a government UK style. It's pretty unique. It's quite an undemocratic democracy. Find out more from the House of Commons website. I think the only other country that has a similar system is Japan. Definitely not Canada/Australia/India. I repeat! Definitely not Canada/Australia/India!The UK gov has special intricacies that mark it out as v.unique, for e.g. we have no written constitution. Check out the uk.gov. website!

before it becomes law, it is called a bill. it has to go through 3 readings in Parliament. The first being its introduction, the second to understand its need and the third to make amendments to the bill, if any. After that it is sent to the President for his assent-ion. The Bill becomes law on the day it is in the gazette. hope that will help

There are two houses of congress, the Senate, and the House of Representatives. \n\nThe Senate has two representatives (Senators) from each state.\n\nThe House of Representatives has representatives based on the population in each state.\n\nA Congressman may be either a Senator or a Representative. Generally, the distinction is Congressman and Senator, but not always.\n\nSenators, by virtue of the fact that there only 100, have more power. I don't know exactly how many Representatives there are - you could probably find that datum fairly quickly, and I am too lazy to do it for you. I think a conservative estimate is that there are more that 3 representatives for every Senator.

Actually, there is one state (Nebraska) that is unicameral--in other words, its legislature has only one house.  The names of the houses of the legislature vary from state to state, but all of those with bicameral legislatures use the name "Senate" for the upper (and smaller) house.   The term "House of Representatives" (or "House," for short) is used as the name of the lower (and larger) house in 41 states.  Five states call the lower house the "Assembly," and three use the term "House of Delegates."

Lok sabha:\n\nThe Lok Sabha (House of the People) is the lower house in the Parliament of India. Members of the Lok Sabha are direct representatives of the people of India, having been directly elected by the electorate consisting of all eligible adult citizens of India. Its maximum size as outlined in the Constitution of India is 552 members, made up of up to 530 members representing people from the states of India, up to 20 members representing people from the Union Territories, and 2 members appointed by the President of India to represent the Anglo-Indian community if he or she finds that community to not have adequate representation in the House.\n\nEach Lok Sabha is formed for a five year term, after which it is automatically dissolved, unless extended by a Proclamation of Emergency which may extend the term in one year increments. The Fourteenth Lok Sabha was formed in May, 2004\n\nImportant Members of the Fourteenth Lok Sabha\n\nSpeaker: Somnath Chatterjee, Communist Party of India (Marxist), Bolpur, West Bengal \nDeputy Speaker: Charnjit Singh Atwal, Shiromani Akali Dal, Phillaur, Punjab \nLeader of the House: Pranab Mukherjee, Indian National Congress, Jangipur, West Bengal \nLeader of the Opposition: Lal Krishna Advani, Bharatiya Janata Party, Gandhinagar, Gujarat \nSecretary-General: P.D.T. Achary \n\nComposition of Lok Sabha\n\nThe membership of Lok Sabha is distributed among the states and union territories so as to ensure proper representation of the population of the states and union territories. The current allocation of membership is as follows: (545 members: 543 elected + 2 nominated)\n\nStates:\n\nAndhra Pradesh - 42 \nArunachal Pradesh - 2 \nAssam - 14 \nBihar - 40 \nChhatisgarh - 11 \nGoa - 2 \nGujarat - 26 \nHaryana - 10 \nHimachal Pradesh - 4 \nJammu and Kashmir - 6 \nJharkand - 14 \nKarnataka - 28 \nKerala - 20 \nMadhya Pradesh - 29 \nMaharashtra - 48 \nManipur - 2 \nMeghalaya - 2 \nMizoram - 1 \nNagaland - 1 \nOrissa - 21 \nPunjab - 13 \nRajasthan - 25 \nSikkim - 1 \nTamil Nadu - 39 \nTripura - 2 \nUttar Pradesh - 80 \nUttaranchal - 5 \nWest Bengal - 42 \n\nUnion Territories\n\nAndaman and Nicobar Islands - 1 \nChandigarh - 1 \nDadra and Nagar Haveli - 1 \nDaman and Diu - 1 \nDelhi - 7 \nLakshadweep - 1 \nPondicherry - 1\n\nTotal members - 545\n\nThe Lok Sabha shares legislative power with the Rajya Sabha, except in the area of Money Bills, in which case the Lok Sabha has the ultimate authority. If conflicting legislation is enacted by the two Houses, a joint sitting is held to resolve the differences. In such a session, the members of the Lok Sabha would generally prevail, since the Lok Sabha includes more than twice as many members as the Rajya Sabha.\n\nSpecial powers of the Lok Sabha\n\nThe special powers of the Lok Sabha is the reason why the Lok Sabha is more powerful than the Rajya Sabha.\n\nA motion of no confidence against the government may be introduced only in the Lok Sabha. If passed by majority vote, the Prime Minister and his council of Ministers shall collectively resign.\n\nA money bill can be introduced only in the Lok Sabha. After it is passed by the Lok Sabha, it is sent to the Rajya Sabha, where it can be deliberated upon for a maximum period of 14 days. Unless rejected by the Rajya Sabha, or 14 days lapse from the introduction of the bill in the Rajya Sabha without any action by the House, or recommendations made by the Rajya Sabha are not accepted by the Lok Sabha, the bill shall be considered passed. The budget is presented in the Lok Sabha by the Finance Minister in the name of the President of India.\n\nIn matters pertaining to non-financial bills, after the bill has been passed by the House where it was originally tabled (Lok Sabha or Rajya Sabha), it shall be sent to the other house, where it may be kept for a maximum period of 6 months. If the other House rejects the bill or a period of 6 months elapses without any action by that House, or the recommendations made by the m

First of all, Congress is bicameral legislature, we also have the House of Representives.  They have plenty of duties. Some of the more basic ones are to set up commitites to investigate situations.  They vote on bills, can declare war, and can impeach the president. There's about 20 more duties they have.
