Kunveno

The Kunveno is the federal legislature of the United Republic of Bijhan and Laharn.

The Kunveno is bicameral, consisting of a House of Representatives and a Senate, each with 120 members. The houses have identical powers. Members of both chambers represent the constituent states, but, whereas seats in the House of Representatives are distributed in proportion to population, each constituent state has an equal number of seats in the Senate. Both are elected in full once every five years, with the last election being held on 7 and 8 April 2018.

The Kunveno possesses the federal government's legislative power. For a bill to become law, it must be passed by both houses by simple majority, provided at least one-fourth of voting senators have voted in favor. Certain laws require a "special majority" in the Senate, which requires the affirmative votes of at least 24 senators from each constituent state as part of the simple majority. The Kunveno also elects the Presidential Council, which is the federal executive and collective head of state.
