What is Parliament?

Thanks for the question Max the Cat! The Australian Parliament is the place where laws are made for all of Australia, and where elected representatives put forward the concerns and interests of the Australian people. The Parliament is made up of the King (represented by the Governor-General), the Senate and the House of Representatives.
