The Plurinational Legislative Assembly ((スペイン語:Asamblea Legislativa Plurinacional)) is the national legislature of Bolivia, placed in La Paz, the country's seat of government. The assembly is bicameral, consisting of a lower house (the Chamber of Deputies or ''Cámara de Diputados)'' and an upper house (the Senate, or ''Cámara de Senadores)''. The Vice President of Bolivia also serves as the President of the Plurinational Legislative Assembly. Each house elects its own directorate: a President, first and second Vice Presidents, and three or four Secretaries (for the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies, respectively). Each party is said to have a bench ((スペイン語:bancada)) consisting of its parliamentarians. The representatives of each department comprise a brigade (''brigada''). Each house considers legislation in standing committees. The Senate has 36 seats. Each of the country's nine departments returns four senators elected by proportional representation (using the D'Hondt method).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lexivox.org/norms/BO-L-N26.xhtml )〕 (From 1985 to 2009, the Senate had 27 seats: three seats per department: two from the party or formula that receives the most votes, with the third senator representing the second-placed party.) Senators are elected from party lists to serve five-year terms, and the minimum age to hold a Senate seat is 35 years. The Chamber of Deputies comprises 130 seats, elected using the additional member system: 70 deputies are elected to represent single-member electoral districts, 7 of which are Indigenous or Campesino seats elected by the usos y costumbres of minority groups, 60 are elected by proportional representation from party lists on a departmental basis.〔 Deputies also serve five-year terms, and must be aged at least 25 on the day of the election. Party lists are required to alternate between men and women, and in the single-member districts, men are required to run with a female alternate, and vice versa. At least 50% of the deputies from single-member districts are required to be women. Both the senate, and the proportional part of the Chamber of Deputies is elected based on the vote for the presidential candidates, while the deputies from the single-member districts are elected separately.〔 The legislative body was formerly known as the ''National Congress'' ((スペイン語:Congreso Nacional)). ==2015–2020 Congress== (詳細はウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Plurinational Legislative Assembly」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
