| | Parliament And The Peerage |
 | | The elections for officers of the House were held on the twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth of October, while those for peers elected by party were held on the third and fourth of November; the results were proclaimed to the House on the fifth of November. | | | Peers were required to take such oaths and make such declarations before sitting in the House of Lords, voting in elections of representative peers and sitting on juries trying other peers for felonies. | | | Elections for peers were resumed by the House of Lords Act 1999, under which ninety hereditary peers are elected by their counterparts to serve in the House of Lords. |

| | Rights and Privileges of Peers |
| | Scottish peers created since the Act of Union in 1707 are peers of the United Kingdom, and are equivalent in all respects to peers of England created subsequent to 1707 (who are also, technically, peers of the United Kingdom), including a right to a seat in the House of Lords. | | | A peer is barred from voting in parliamentary elections and from sitting in the House of Commons (again in the company of lunatics and felons). | | | Irish peers, unlike all other British peers, are not barred from voting in general elections or from being elected to the House of Commons. |

| | French Peerage in the 19th c. |
| | The House of Peers was presided by the Chancelor of France. | | | The House of Peers was abolished in February 1848 with the fall of the July Monarchy and never recreated. | | | In many instances, a waiver was given and the newly appointed peer allowed to take his seat without a majorat; in that case, however, his title was not hereditary until the majorat had been formed; in effect, it was a life peerage. |

| | The custom was for the resigned peer to keep using his title, and for the new peer to be called "duc de" some other family fief. | | | If the recipient of the donation died before the resigning peer without leaving any issue, the custom (not universally applied) was for the original peer to regain his peerage, as happened for La Valette in 1658, La Force in 1755. | | | This privilege was gradually extended to all peers. |

| | Since the admission of specially ennobled law lords into the House of Lords in the late nineteenth century, appeals to the House of Lords have be heard before at least three judicially qualified lords. | | | However, other members of the House of Lords who have held high judicial office may hear appeals, and these are known as Lords of Appeal (a style to be carefully distinguished from that of Lords of Appeal in Ordinary). | | | The Lords of Appeal in Ordinary are appointed from the various British judicial benches, and comprise the principal working body of the House. |

| | That act provided that the peers of Ireland should elect 28 of their number (to be called Irish representative peers) to sit for life on the part of Ireland in the House of Lords of the new United Kingdom. | | | In 1965 a number of Irish peers led by the Earl of Antrim petitioned the House of Lords for the recognition of their right to elect 28 representative peers to sit in the House of Lords. | | | The right of the Irish peers to be represented in the House of Lords was part of the unfinished business of Ireland left behind when the Irish Free State was established in 1922, reflecting the fact that the arrangements then made were regarded by all sides as an interim settlement. |
