The Houses of Parliament are where all laws and proposed, discussed and passed.
There are 2 houses, the House of Commons, filled with 1 Member of Parliament (MP) from each constituency (around 650 in the country), and the House of Lords, filled with non elected peers.
A Bill will be proposed (usually by the government party) in one of the houses and if accepted will be read out in detail and voted on again. If it accepted again it will go to committees to draft the finer points of the Bill (these usually include experts in the area) and these will again be voted on. If it passes all this it will pass to the second house.
In the other house the same process will occur and if it passes through again without any problems it will be signed by the Monarch and made an Act of Parliament.
A bill usually starts in the House of Commons and then proceeds to the House of Lords although not always.
The second house (usually Lords) can and sometimes does create a ping pong effect by keep amending a law so it must be discussed again in the Commons. An example of this happening is with the ban on fox hunting which the Lords didnt wish to be made law. In extreme cases such as this the Prime Minister can use the Parliament Act and skip the House of Lords approval.
