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)


 * 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)


 * 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)

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)

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)

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

what is a lower house
explain it inside the article —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.78.32.145 (talk) 14:56, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

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)
