A group of teenagers take a tour of the Houses of Parliament to find out how a bill becomes law. We learn about the role of committees in scrutinising proposed laws. We hear about the ping-pong effect, when legislation is repeatedly sent back between the Commons and the Lords. The teenagers also visit a division chamber, and we learn that MPs and Lords only have a few minutes to race to the division lobbies to vote. The teenagers also visit the Parliamentary archive to see where all Acts of Parliament are stored.
