House of Commons

Part of the UK Parliament

Please do NOT make the same FOI request to BOTH the House of Commons AND EITHER the House of Commons Commission OR the House of Commons Administration Committee.

Requests to each of these three bodies are sent to the same Commons FOI team.

The House of Commons is the lower house of the UK Parliament. The House of Commons and House of Lords make the law of the United Kingdom through Acts of Parliament.

The House of Commons also holds the Government to account.
