The Parliament of the Netherlands, known as the "Staten-Generaal" (States General), is the country's bicameral legislature, consisting of two chambers: the House of Representatives (Tweede Kamer) and the Senate (Eerste Kamer). The House of Representatives has 150 members elected directly by the Dutch citizens and holds significant legislative power, while the Senate has 75 members indirectly elected by the provincial legislatures and primarily reviews legislation passed by the House. Together, they are responsible for making laws, approving budgets, and overseeing the government. The Parliament plays a crucial role in Dutch democracy, reflecting the will of the people and providing checks and balances on the executive branch.
