    The German Bundestag is the representative body of the Federal Republic of Germany and is elected by the people every four years. There are at least 598 elected representatives, of whom half are directly elected (Erststimme) and half taken from the parties' Landeslisten (Zweitstimme). The Bundestag passes Federal laws, elects the Bundeskanzler, exercises parliamentary control over the Federal government and sets the Federal budget. Although the General Assembly is its public face, the Bundestag carries out most of its work in committees, whose composition reflects that of the Bundestag. At the Land level there is usually a similar body, the Landtag. See: → Bundeskanzler, Erststimme/Zweitstimme

    The Bundesrat - the Upper House of the German Parliament is composed of members of the individual state governments. The number of representatives is determined by the size of the state. The Bundesrat plays a role in the passing of legislation. In Austria, the Bundesrat is the part of parliament where the Länder - provinces are represented according to their population. The exact number of representatives from the provinces is stipulated by the Federal President after each national census. In Switzerland however, the Bundesrat is the government, which consists of seven members who are elected for four years and is chaired by the Federal President.

    The Bundesrat is the second chamber of the Federal Republic of Germany, representing the Länder. It has 69 members, who are not elected but delegated by the 16 Land governments. The most important of the Bundesrat's duties concerns legislation: Federal laws that impinge upon the responsibilities of the Länder require its approval. The Bundesrat may also object to other laws, although the Bundestag can overrule the objection. As a result, Federal policy can be influenced by parties who are in opposition in the Bundestag if these parties hold a majority in most of the Land parliaments. In Austria the Bundesrat has 63 members. Apart from being able to introduce its own proposals for legislation, the Bundesrat has certain rights of veto and approval with regard to laws passed by the Nationalrat. In Switzerland, however, the Bundesrat is the executive body, i.e. the government. The Bundesversammlung appoints seven Bundesräte (ministers), who must come from different cantons, for a period of four years. Each of these ministers is then placed in charge of a Departement.
