The House of Representatives of the State of New Hampshire ( Engl. Official: House of Representatives of the State of New Hampshire , informal: New Hampshire House of Representatives ) is the lower house of the New Hampshire General Court , the legislature of the US state of New Hampshire .
The Chamber of Parliament is made up of 400 members who are elected in over 100 constituencies. Each constituency has an average of 3,000 inhabitants. The MPs are each elected for two-year terms. The House of Representatives boardroom is shared with the Senate in the New Hampshire State House in the capital, Concord .
Compensation for MPs
Under Article 15 of the New Hampshire Constitution, members of the House of Representatives receive an expense allowance of $ 200 for their entire two-year term ; the Speaker of the House of Representatives will receive increased compensation of $ 250. In addition, travel allowances are granted for a maximum of 45 meeting days. Additional compensation such as attendance fees will not be paid.
New Hampshire State House
Unlike many state legislatures, New Hampshire does not have a "cloister". The MPs from both parties sit partially separated from each other in five sections. After a member of parliament has taken a seat, he or she turns on one of the marker lights on the seat and expresses his party affiliation (chairman and party leader in green, non-chairs in red). The location of a party seat is not fixed; it is often decided by a senator's personal preference. The sixth section, reserved for the Speaker of the House , is an exception.
