The Parliament of South Australia is the legislative body responsible for making laws in the state of South Australia. It consists of two houses: the House of Assembly, which is the lower house, and the Legislative Council, the upper house. Members of the House of Assembly are elected by the public, while members of the Legislative Council are also elected but represent different regions. The Parliament meets at the Parliament House in Adelaide, the state capital. Its main functions include debating proposed laws, scrutinizing government actions, and representing the interests of South Australians. The Parliament plays a crucial role in the democratic process of the state.
