| The '''Kaminoa Dieta''' ({{wpl|English language|English}}: ''Caminoan Parliament'') is the {{wpl|unicameral}} {{wpl|federation|federal}} {{wpl|legislature}} of [[Caminoes]]. It consists of one chamber presided over by[[The Speaker of the Dieta]]. The [[Members of Parliament]] or MP's gather in the parliament building referred to as the [[R'askstagg]].
| |
|
| |
|
| The Dieta is composed of 600 seats (fixed) and adjusts when there are overhang seats[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhang_seat]] after an election. Members of Parliament who are elected for the first time are granted a 5-year first term and once re-elected are granted 4 more years, an additional 4 are then granted for the subsequent elections they win, MP's only leave The Dieta after one of two circumstances, either through losing their seat in an election or by retiring/resigning. | | The '''Kaminoa Dieta''' ({{wpl|English language|English}}: ''Caminoan Parliament'') is the {{wpl|unicameral}} {{wpl|federation|federal}} {{wpl|legislature}} of [[Caminoes]]. Serving as the {{wpl|supreme legislative body}} of the country, convening at the [[Shojungun]] (Federal Dieta House). Most of the lesgislative power is concentrated on the Dieta and therefore holds {{wpl|Parliamentary sovereignty|legislative supremacy}} allowing it to be the primary overseer of all legislation and be the primary deliberative body on [[Caminoan Law]]. It consists of one chamber presided over by [[The Speaker of the Dieta]]. |

|
| The Parliament took its current form with the [[Law on Electoral Representation of 1960]], which provided for a bicameral federal parliament elected through {{wpl|single transferable vote}}. It is the successor of the unicameral Popular Assembly of 1958–1962, and thus the [[Free Territories (Gylias)#The General Council|General Council]] of the [[Free Territories (Gylias)|Free Territories]]. Since 2000, members of Parliament are elected every four years in {{wpl|fixed-term election}}s. | | The Dieta is composed of 600 seats (fixed) and adjusts when there are overhang seats[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhang_seat]], this is due to the {{wpl|proportional representation}} electoral system that the country has. Members of Parliament who are elected for the first time are granted a 5-year first term and once re-elected are granted 4 more years, an additional 4 are then granted for the subsequent elections they win, MP's only leave The Dieta after one of two circumstances, either through losing their seat in an election or by retiring/resigning. |

| |
|
| Like all other legislatures in Gylias, the Parliament is a {{wpl|citizen legislature|popular legislature}}, with its members serving part-time. Currently, 43 parties are represented in Parliament, forming various {{wpl|parliamentary group}}s within its chambers.
| | The numerous and diverse demographics of the Caminoes lends itself to a very dynamic political spectrum which then results to a varied and wide array of political perceptions. This leads to a multi-party system that is then unified as a [[Coalition Government]] led by a chosen [[Coalition Secretary]], usually nominated by the [[Prime Minister of Caminoes|Prime Minister.]] |
|

|
| ==History== | | ==History== |
| The Gylian Parliament was created during the transition from the [[Free Territories (Gylias)|Free Territories]] to Gylias. One notable element of this transition was the replacement of the {{wpl|indirect election|indirectly-elected}} [[Free Territories (Gylias)#The General Council|General Council of the Free Territories]], formed of delegates chosen from local [[Communal assemblies (Gylias)|communal assemblies]], with a {{wpl|direct election|directly-elected}} federal legislature, known as the Popular Assembly.
| | ==Judicial functions== |
| | | ===Judicial procedure=== |
| The only election for the Popular Assembly took place in [[Gylian federal election, 1958|1958]], using national {{wpl|party-list proportional representation}}. The Assembly served a term of four years, overseeing the formalisation of the Free Territories' anarchist governance, including the passage of the [[Constitution of Gylias]] and [[Law of Gylias#Legal foundations|six codes of law]].
| |
| | |
| The legislature was reorganised by the [[Law on Electoral Representation of 1960]], gaining an additional chamber. The change from proportional representation to {{wpl|single transferable vote}} aided the growth of Gylias' [[List of political parties in Gylias|multi-party system]], and the formation of ideology-based {{wpl|electoral bloc}}s. The [[Constitution of Gylias|Constitution]] renamed the Popular Assembly to the [[Gylian Chamber of Deputies|Chamber of Deputies]], while the new chamber was named the [[Gylian Senate|Senate]].
| |
| | |
| The first election for the Gylian Parliament took place in [[Gylian federal election, 1962|1962]]. The election ushered in the modern Gylian political system, with five-party electoral blocs and {{G-NI}}. To keep the locus of governance at the local level, based on principles of {{wpl|subsidiarity}}, the Parliament was made a {{wpl|citizen legislature|popular legislature}}, and initially had a seven-year term.
| |
| | |
| The two chambers evolved different identities. The Senate became a [[Political culture of Gylias#Participation|means of acknowledging the contributions of esteemed civil society and artistic figures]] — jokingly likened by [[Dæse Şyna]] to a [[honoured citizens list|retirement home for respected political pensioners]].
| |
| | |
| Parliament's {{wpl|term of office}} was shortened to 5 years before the [[Gylian federal election, 1976|1976 election]], with the [[Gylian federal election, 1980|1980 election]] being held a year ahead of schedule.
| |
| | |
| Its size was capped by the [[Law on Legislature Sizes of 1989]] to prevent it from growing to the point of usurping the prerogative of direct democracy.
| |
| | |
| Three more elections were held five years apart before the term was fixed at 4 years starting with the [[Gylian federal election, 2000|2000 election]]. The current cycle allows [[Elections in Gylias#Federal elections|federal]] and [[Elections in Gylias#Regional elections|regional]] elections to be held two years apart.
| |
| | |
| Various projects for parliamentary reform have been proposed. The most successful, supported by the {{G-NAF}}, took place in the 1990s and changed the Senate into a body chosen by sortition and appointment.
| |
| | |
| ==Legislative functions== | | ==Legislative functions== |
| The Parliament represents the federal {{wpl|legislative branch}} of Gylias. Its responsibilities are limited by law in order to avoid usurpation of self-governance from the [[Communal assemblies (Gylias)|communal assemblies]] and [[Municipalities of Gylias|municipalities]], in accordance with the principle of {{wpl|subsidiarity}}.
| |
|
| |
| The Parliament thus performs more of a {{wpl|deliberative democracy|deliberative}} and {{wpl|delegative democracy|delegative}} role in [[Politics of Gylias|Gylian politics]]. It scrutinises, debates, and advances proposals and works to gather a consensus from the public and all levels of government regarding matters of federal importance.
| |
|
| |
| Members of Parliament are subject to {{wpl|imperative mandate}}s and {{wpl|recall election|recall}} from their constituents.
| |
|
| |
| The Parliament is imperfectly bicameral: the Chamber of Deputies is the {{wpl|responsible house}}, and the only one where federal budget bills are introduced. The Chamber of Deputies meets in two regular sessions, as specified in the Constitution:
| |
| * The first session begins in February and cannot last beyond the end of June.
| |
| * The second session begins in September and cannot last beyond the end of December.
| |
|
| |
|
| {{wpl|Extraordinary session}}s may be called during the summer and winter recesses.
| | The Parliament is unicameral: |
|
| |
|
| The Senate meets in yearlong sessions, coinciding with the calendaristic seasons.
| | {{wpl|Extraordinary session}}s |
|

|
| {{wpl|Bill (law)|Bills}} may be introduced by any member of either chamber (except budget bills) and there is no distinction between bills introduced by members of government or opposition parties. | | {{wpl|Bill (law)|Bills}} |

| ==Parliamentary procedure==
| | ''Departmental Standing Committees'' |
| Both chambers of Parliament have a presiding Speaker, chosen from the members at the beginning of a new term and renouncing party affiliation. Speakers carry out administrative tasks: they maintain order during debates, determine the order in which members speak, make rulings on procedure, and announce vote results. Speakers may not vote in a debate except in the event of a tie, where they will {{wpl|Speaker Denison's rule|vote in favour of further debate or the status quo}}.
| | {| class="wikitable sortable" |
| | | |- |
| The Gylian Parliament does not have rules on {{wpl|unparliamentary language}}, giving it a more informal atmosphere compared to other state legislatures, but members are not allowed to interrupt other members while they are speaking. Members can directly speak amongst themselves or address their remarks to the Speaker; the former is more common. They can refer to each other by full name, or as "Deputy" or "Senator" for short according to the chamber they serve in.

| | | |- |
| Each day of parliamentary session has 30 minutes reserved for {{wpl|Question Time}}, during which Deputies and Senators address questions to the [[Cabinet of Gylias|Cabinet]] and [[Prime Minister of Gylias|Prime Minister]]. The Prime Minister transfers questions that are not their direct responsibility to the relevant cabinet members.
| | | [[Committee on Internal State Management]] |
| | | | Rt. Hon. [[Yorgos Lanthimus]] MP (CdC) |
| As a result of the [[List of political parties in Gylias|large number of parties represented]] and stricter moderation by the Speakers, Question Time sessions in Gylias are known for their lively but civilised atmosphere. Questions during this period are required to be relevant to policy, even from members of government parties. Speakers routinely disallow {{wpl|Dorothy Dixer|pre-arranged questions for the purpose of criticising the opposition}}.
| | | Rt. Hon. [[José Antonio Imelda Pascual]] (CdC) |
| | | | Rt. Hon. [[Lilja Tatiana Hernández]] MP (CSD) |
| Both chambers of Parliament meet and conduct their sessions separately, but joint meetings of both chambers can take place to receive addresses from visiting heads of state or government. The most recent joint sitting occurred on 31 May 2013, when [[Anelyn Trento|Queen Anelyn I]] addressed the Gylian Parliament during her state visit. Deputies and Senators take the oath of office together when a new Parliament is sworn in.

| ===Committees=== | | ''Administrative Standing Committees'' |
| Much of the Gylian Parliament's work is done in committees, which have a strong role in scrutinising legislative proposals. The committees' roles is to examine policy and legislation, take evidence from witnesses, and conduct inquiries. They provide the opportunity for the public and experts to participate in the legislative process, and members of Parliament to ask questions and review proposals.
| | ====Joint Committees==== |
| | # [[Public Transparency Committee]] |
| | # [[Science and Technology Committee]] |
| | # [[Economic Stability Committee]] |
| | # [[Education Efficiency and Competence Committee]] |
| | # [[Foreign Affairs Committee]] |
| | # [[Health and Human Services Committee]] |
| | # [[Environmental Safety Committee]] |
| | # [[Climate Change Committee]] |
|
| |
|
| There are two types of committees. Permanent Committees are established on a permanent basis, responsible for scrutinising bills and topics referred to them by the chambers, examining the government's budget and activities, and providing guidance and research during the bill-drafting process.
| | ====Select Special Committees==== |
|
| |
|
| There are currently 28 Permanent Committees, representing the majority of parliamentary committees. They form a significant contribution to {{wpl|grey literature}} published in Gylias, including {{wpl|white paper}}s and {{wpl|green paper}}s, and serving on a Permanent Committee or chairing it is a prestigious position.

| Temporary Committees are established to deal with particular issues, and work closely with Permanent Committees. Different Prime Ministers have established Temporary Committees that reflected their program.
| |
|
| |
|
| The Parliament has no internal committees. Administration of parliamentary affairs, from procedures to budgeting and appointing the members of committees, is handled by the Permanent Committee on Parliamentary Procedures and Matters, which in turn has a sub-committee for commitee memberships and appointments.
| |
|
| |
|
| All parliamentary committees are joint committees, including both Deputies and Senators. A committee has 20 members in total, half from each chamber, with membership equally divided between the government and opposition. The membership of the committees is established through negotiation and consensus, with the aim of ensuring representation and participation from all members.
