The e-Parliament "is building a new kind of international institution - one that is democratic and transparent, in which anyone can participate." [1]
"The e-Parliament has been incorporated as a non-profit organization in both the United Kingdom and the United States. The governing body is a Council made up mainly of members of parliament from around the world. In due course the Council will be elected by participating legislators in an online poll." [2]
