Слайд 6Where Is the UK Parliament?
To give the people of Scotland,

Wales and Northern Ireland more say over what happens in

their countries, the UK Parliament has devolved (given away) some of its powers to other national and regional bodies.

For example, in Scotland there is a Scottish Parliament, which has elected members who make some decisions for Scotland. There is also the National Assembly for Wales and the Northern Ireland Assembly.

Слайд 7Parliament is made up of three parts: the House of

Commons, the House of Lords and the king or queen

– known as the Monarch.

What Is the UK Parliament?

The House of Commons is made up of Members of Parliament (MPs). MPs are elected to represent our views in the House of Commons.

In the House of Lords, members are appointed from inside and outside of Parliament, based on their special experience and knowledge, to check and challenge the work of the Government.

The role of the Monarch is mainly ceremonial these days. The Monarch meets the Prime Minister once a week to hear what’s going on in Parliament, signs new laws (gives Royal Assent) and attends the State Opening of Parliament.

Parliament is made up of three parts: the House of Commons, the House of Lords and the

Слайд 8What Does Parliament Do?
The main work of Parliament is to:

check and challenge the work of the Government;
make and

change laws;
debate the important issues of the day.

The issues discussed in Parliament affect us all and include health, the environment, transport, jobs, schools and crime.

Слайд 9Is Parliament Different from the Government?
Yes! The Government’s job is

to run the country.
Parliament’s job is to check and

challenge what the Government does.

The UK usually holds a general election every five years. After the election, the party with the most MPs can then form the Government.

The leader of the winning party becomes the Prime Minister and chooses a team of MPs and members of the House of Lords to form the Government.

MPs and Lords who are not part of the winning party become the Opposition. They check and challenge the ideas of the Government through debates and questions.

There are also many Lords who are not members of either the Government or the Opposition. They don’t belong to any political party. They are called ‘crossbenchers’ as they sit across the middle of the House of Lords Chamber.
