The Senate, officially the Senate of Roscamistan, was the upper house of the National Assembly, the bicameral legislature of Roscamistan, the other house being the Chamber of Representatives. The Senate was the third in the line of upper houses of legislatures in Roscamistan, superseding the Senat (upper house of the Reichstag) and the Provisional Senate (upper house of the Legislative Council).
Its members, fielded by the Roscami Democratic Patriotic Front in accordance with Article 10 of the Constitution, were elected by single transferable vote in multi member constituencies. The Senate and the Chamber of Representatives were both abolished in June 2023 in favour of the National Congress.
Structure
The Senate was originally made up of 12 senators, who were appointed by the President of Roscamistan de facto on individual merit, for a term of seven months. After the Senate Reform Act was passed, the amount of seats set for the second Senate was 9, elected by single transferable vote in multi member constituencies, called the Outer, Metropolitan and Overseas Constituencies.
Leadership
The Leadership of the Senate was composed of the President of the Senate and the Deputy President of the Senate. The President presided over sessions, and in his absence, the Deputy President did such.
