The German Bundestag is the representative body of the Federal Republic of Germany and is elected by the people every four years. There are at least 598 elected representatives, of whom half are directly elected (Erststimme) and half taken from the parties' Landeslisten (Zweitstimme). The Bundestag passes Federal laws, elects the Bundeskanzler, exercises parliamentary control over the Federal government and sets the Federal budget. Although the General Assembly is its public face, the Bundestag carries out most of its work in committees, whose composition reflects that of the Bundestag. At the Land level there is usually a similar body, the Landtag. See: → Bundeskanzler, Erststimme/Zweitstimme
