It is considered the supreme law of the nation and the Emperor as well as the legislative, executive and judicialpowers must respect and uphold it (Art. 99 of the Constitution). According to this constitution, the Emperor has only a sybolic and formal function.

The legislative power is vested in the Diet (KOKKAI), which consists of two houses, the House of Councillors (Sangiin) and the House of Representatives (Shugiin).

As a general rule, a bill becomes a law merely by passing both houses.

If a bill has passed the House of Representatives but is defeated in the House of Councillors, it can become law if passed a second time in the House of Representives with two-thirds of all members present.

However, both houses are popularly elected. As Japan is divided into prefectures, the membership is largely based on proportional representation from prefectural districts.

The members of both houses also have limited terms of office. Members of the House of Councillors are elected to six year terms, and members of the House of Representatives serve four year terms.

The Cabinet's members do not have constitutionally limited terms of office but must resign at the request of the Diet.
