The Legislature (Parliament)

​The Parliament of New South Wales is the law-making body for the State of New South Wales and is Australia's first and oldest Parliament. It consists of two democratically elected Houses, the Legislative Assembly and the Legislative Council.

The Parliament of New South Wales acknowledges and respects the traditional lands of all Aboriginal people, and pays respects to all Elders past and present. We acknowledge the Gadigal people as the traditional custodians of the land on which the Parliament of New South Wales stands.
