Tags: Legislature.

The House of Representatives is the lower chamber of Fiji’s Parliament. It is the more powerful of the two chambers; it alone has the power to initiate legislation (the Senate by contrast can amend or veto most legislation but cannot initiate it). The House of Representatives also has much greater jurisdiction over financial bills; the Senate cannot amend them although it may veto them.
