Talk:Lower house

Merging

The First chamber should be merged into this article. Now there's a redirect from First Chamber (capital c) to here. The same with Second Chamber, but there the redirect has the lower C. --Hu Totya 12:37, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

But the First chamber article is about an upper house, isn’t it? Or am I missing something? —Ian Spackman 15:47, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah these articles were a bit of a mess. I corrected, merged and redirected all of them. --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 10:43, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading

"There are exceptions to this however, such as the Prime Minister of Japan, who is formally selected with the approval of both houses of the Diet."

This is misleading, as my understanding is that should the two houses disagree, the Lower House decision is final. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.224.24.222 (talk) 12:09, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Common attributes

Are you sure that the "common attributes" aren't just the ones of the U.S. lower chamber? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.145.65.164 (talk) 15:49, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology

Where do the terms "upper" and "lower" house originate from? --70.142.41.253 (talk) 23:46, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

explain it inside the article —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.78.32.145 (talk) 14:56, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Correct usage of "second chamber"

This article is completely wrong. Except in the Netherlands, 'second chamber' means the upper house of a bicameral legislature. Wikipedia's own Bicameralism article reflects the correct usage.Alan (talk) 18:20, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
