====Different Powers====
The Council and Senate each have particular exclusive powers. For example, the Senate must approve (give "advice and consent" to) many important presidential appointments, including cabinet officers, federal judges (including nominees to the Supreme Court), executive ministers (heads of federal executive ministries), U.R. military and naval officers, and ambassadors to foreign countries. All legislative bills for raising revenue must originate in the National Council. The approval of both chambers is required to pass all legislation, which then may only become law by being signed by the president (or, if the president vetoes the bill, both houses of Parliament then re-pass the bill, but by a two-thirds majority of each chamber, in which case the bill becomes law without the president's signature). The powers of Parliament are limited to those enumerated in the Constitution; all other powers are reserved to the states and the people. The Constitution also includes the "Necessary and Proper Clause", which grants Parliament the power to "make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers".
