The Parliament of Ibagli is the legislative branch of the Ibaglian government. According to section 7 of The Constitution Act, 1955, Parliament consists of the Sovereign, the Senate, and the House of Commons.
Senators are appointed by the Governor-General on the advice of the Prime Minister. There may be no more than seventy Senators at any time. Members of the House of Commons are elected by the people of Ibagli. Of the 60 members of the House, 30 are directly elected by the people using the first-past-the-post method, and 30 are elected by proportional representation.
The House of Commons is the dominant chamber of Parliament. The Senate rarely refuses to approve bills passed by the lower house. There have been several recent moves to abolish the Senate.
