United Nations Parliamentary Assembly
A United Nations Parliamentary Assembly (UNPA) is a proposed idea to add to the United Nations System. The idea was raised at the founding of the League of Nations in the 1920s and again following the end of World War II in 1945. It has received the support of over 1,600 members of parliament from over 100 countries worldwide.[1][2]

Following the example of many national parliaments, the UN General Assembly would likely function at first as the unelected upper house of a bicameral UN system.
The composition of the Chinese National People's Congress (seated at the Great Hall of the People, shown here) is controlled by the ruling Chinese Communist Party.
