Assemblée nationale

The lower house of the French parliament, in which 577 députés are elected for a five-year term. A member, who must be at least 23 years old, has to be elected by at least 50% of the votes cast and, if necessary, a second round of voting is held to ensure this. Party affiliation is indicated by a député's allocation to a seat within a left-right gradation in the semi-circular chamber.
The Assemblée nationale passes laws, votes on the Budget, and questions ministers (who cannot be députés).
