The Parliament of the Federal Democratic Republic of Cerman, commonly known as the Federal Parliament, is the supreme bicameral legislative body of Cerman.
History
Legislative process
- Legislation is proposed by any Vizier in the Council.
- An initial vote is held in the Council, with three options: Approved, Rejected, or Requires amendment.
- Until a majority is reached for either Approved or Rejected, amendments are proposed and voted upon. Viziers must either approve or reject the proposed legislation by the fourth vote.
- If the proposal is approved by the Viziers, it becomes a Bill. The Bill is then sent to the House.
If the Federal House is in session (twice a year, or if unanimously summoned by the Viziers):
- An initial vote is held in the house, with three options: Approved, Rejected, or Requires amendment.
- Unless a majority is reached for either Approved or Rejected, the floor is opened for amendments to be submitted. Amendments must be sponsored by at least 150 MPs, or by a majority of MPs from one region.
- Any amendments are voted upon, with two options: Approved, or Rejected.
- After the amendment stage, the house votes again on the bill, with two options: Approved, or Rejected.
- If the bill is approved at this stage, it is sent back to the Council of Viziers.
- If the House rejects the bill, it is thrown out of Parliament.
If the Federal House is not in session:
This process applies both to National Houses (in session the last week of every month) and Regional Houses (generally avoided, but in session for the rest of the year)
- An initial vote is held in each house, with three options: Approved, Rejected, or Requires amendment.
- Unless a house reaches a majority for Approved, the floor is opened for amendments. The exact requirements for submitting amendments varies by nation/region.
- Any amendments are voted upon, with two options: Approved, or Rejected. Approved amendments are sent to all other houses.
- A second amendment session is held the following day, with each house voting to approve or reject the amendments sent by other houses.
- Each house’s President brings the results of his house’s votes to the Council of Viziers. Here, the Vizier Computer (traditionally the Minister of Finance) tallies the number of votes received by the bill, and by each amendment.
- As a result of the calculation, either
- The bill is rejected and thrown out, because a majority of MPs initially voted to reject the bill, or,
- The bill is accepted unamended, because a majority of MPs initially voter to approve the bill, or,
- The text of the amended bill is finalised, and sent back to the Houses. Another vote is held, with two options: Approved or Rejected. The result is again tabulated by the Vizier Computer, and the bill is either thrown out or passed back to the Viziers.
Once the House has returned an approved bill to the Council of Viziers for the final time:
- If a bill is returned without amendments, the bill receives assent automatically. The Grand Vizier signs the bill into law.
- If an amended bill is returned, a vote on the amended bill is held in the Council, with two options: Approved, or Rejected.
- If an amended bill is rejected a further vote is held, with Viziers voting either to send the bill back to the House, or to throw the bill out.
- If accepted, the amended bill receives assent and is signed into law by the Grand Vizier.
- If the bill is sent back to the House, all amendments previously made by the house are removed, and the House must either approve or reject the bill as presented.
- Approved bills are signed into law by the Grand Vizier, rejected bills are thrown out of parliament.
All bills thrown out may not be reintroduced by a Vizier for seven months.
