The Chamber of Deputies (Italian: Camera dei Deputati) is a house of the bicameral Parliament of Italy (the other being the Senate of the Republic). The two houses together form a perfect bicameral system meaning they perform identical functions but do so separately. Pursuant to article 56 the Italian Constitution the Chamber of Deputies has 630 seats of which 618 are elected from Italian constituencies and 12 from Italian citizens living abroad. Deputies meet in the Palazzo Montecitorio.
