Composition

The Parliament of Llorens consists of 100 members, being physically organised in an arch-shape. The leader and deputy leader of the majority party or coalition government in power are the President and Vice President respectively. To be eligible to run for office, a person must be a citizen of Llorens and 16 years or older.

Procedure

A proposed law or motion can be addressed to the Parliament can be introduced either as a Government's Bill or as a Private Member's Bill, depending on the signatory member. Typically, all members are then notified of the bill one week prior to its discussion and vote within Parliament by the Speaker.

Most bills and motions follow a two-stage process before being ratified. The first session is called the Discussion Session, where one representative of each party is eligible to speak or ask questions on the proposed legislation. At the conclusion of this session, the Parliament will vote on whether the discussion should be ended and the bill or motion be sent to the next stage. Once a majority has agreed to this, it proceeds to the Voting Session, where each member casts their vote either in favour or against, or otherwise abstains, using the electronic voting system installed in the chamber. Most bills or motions requires a simple majority in favour to be passed.

For amendments to the Constitution, the Parliament must achieve a two-thirds majority in both votes of the Discussion and Voting Sessions. If the amendment is agreed to by the Parliament, then a referendum of all eligible voting citizens of Llorens will be hosted, where a two-thirds majority of all valid ballots in favour is required to ratify the amendment.
