Welcome to the House of Delegates of the Republic of Palau
Welcome to the House of Delegates of the Republic of Palau. As Speaker, I am proud to lead our members in fostering open dialogue, accountability, and collaboration to strengthen our democracy and improve the lives of our people across every state and community.
Hon. Gibson Kanai
Speaker of the House
The House of Delegates is one of the two chambers of the Olbiil Era Kelulau and serves as the representative body of Palau’s sixteen states.
Composed of sixteen delegates elected to four-year terms, the House carries out its legislative responsibilities through the enactment of laws, review of national matters, and oversight of government operations in accordance with the Constitution of the Republic of Palau. Since the convening of the First Olbiil Era Kelulau in 1981, the House has remained committed to democratic governance, equal state representation, and public service to the people of the Republic of Palau.
