'''The [[House of Commons]]''' is the lower house of the [[Parliament of Ibagli|Parliament]] of [[Ibagli]]. It was created in 1955 upon the independence of Ibagli out of the Legislative Assembly of Ibagli.

The House currently has 60 members, half of whom are elected in first-past-the-post districts, and half of whom are elected by proportional representation.

As the lower house, the House of Commons holds much greater power than the [[Senate]]. Though the agreement of both houses is necessary to pass a bill, the Senate traditionally does not block the will of the democratically elected House.

The Government of the day is responsible solely to the House of Commons. The [[Prime Minister of Ibagli|Prime Minister]] and his or her [[cabinet]] must maintain the confidence of the House in order to govern. Therefore, the Prime Minister is traditionally the leader of the majority party of the House of Commons.

The House is presided over by its [[Speaker of the House of Commons|Speaker]]. The Speaker cannot vote on any matters unless there is a tie, and must remain neutral on most issues.
