About the Senate

The Jordanian Senate is part of the legislative branch in Jordan and, together with the House of Representatives, forms what is known as "The Parliament of Jordan." The Senate differs from the House of Representatives in the way its members are selected. Members of the House of Representatives are elected directly by the people according to the electoral law, while members of the Senate are appointed by royal decree, based on Article 36 of the Jordanian Constitution, which states: "The King appoints the members of the Senate, designates a Chairman from among them, and accepts their resignations." The Senate performs the same legislative and oversight functions as the House of Representatives, except for granting and withdrawing confidence from the government, which is the exclusive prerogative of the House of Representatives.
