From Monday to Thursday the House of Commons, when in session, meets daily in the early afternoon.
Most members of the House of Commons do not attend Parliament all the time it is in session, but at least 50
members must be present. If a member calls for a «Count» and fewer than this number are present, the House is
adjourned.
The House of Lords meets on only three days a week, for hours. Not more than 100 peers take part in the
regular work of the House. The rest of them appear only on ceremonial occasions.
There is a chair at the top of the House of Commons, in which sits Mr Speaker or his deputy when the
House is in session. Every member entering or leaving the House is supposed to bow to the chair — not to the
occupant, for the chair may be empty; still they must bow. Some members make quite a ceremony of it.
