The Parliament of Gallambria, commonly known as the Gallambrian Parliament, is the supreme legislative body of Gallambria, the crown dependencies and overseas territories. It alone possesses legislative supremacy and thereby ultimate power over all other political bodies in Gallambria and it territories. Its head is the Sovereign of Gallambria (currently King Albert II) and its seat is Parliament House in Bromwich.

The parliament is bicameral, consisting of an upper house (the House of Lords) and a lower house (the House of Commons). The sovereign forms the third component of the legislature (the King-in-Parliament). The House of lords includes two different types of members: the Lords Spiritual, consisting of the most senior bishops of the Church of Gallambria, and the Lords Temporal, consisting of life peers, appointed by the Sovereign on the advice of the Prime Minister.

The House of Commons is an elected chamber with elections to 201 single member constituencies held at least every four years under the first-past-the-post system. The two houses meet in separate chambers in Parliament House in Bromwich. By constitutional convention, all government ministers, including the Prime Minister, are members of the House of Commons.

Composition and Powers

The legislative authority, the Crown-in-Parliament, has three separate elements: the Monarch, the House of Lords, and the House of Commons. No individual may be a member of both houses, and members of the House of Lords are legally barred from voting in elections for members of the House of Commons.

Royal Assent of the Monarch is required for all Bills to become law, and certain Delegated Legislation must be made by the Monarch by Order in Council. The Crown also has executive powers which do not depend on Parliament, through prerogative powers, including the power to make treaties, declare war, award honours, and appoint officers and civil servants. In practise these are always exercised by the monarch on the advice of the Prime Minister and the other ministers of HM Government. The Prime Minister and government are directly accountable to Parliament, through its control of public finances, and to the public, through the election of members of parliament.

The Upper House is formally styled "The Right Honourable The Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament Assembled", the Lords Spiritual being bishops of the Church of Gallambria, and the Lords Temporal being Peers of the Realm. The Lords Spiritual and Lords Temporal are considered separate "estates", but they sit, debate and vote together.
