	Chamber of Deputies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Chamber of Deputies is the name given to a legislative body, be it the lower house of a bicameral legislature, or the name of a unicameral legislature.
		Historically, the "Chamber of Deputies" was the lower house of parliament in the French Third Republic; the name is still informally used for the National Assembly under the nation's current Fifth Republic.
		The term "Chamber of Deputies" is not widely used by English-speaking countries, the more popular equivalent being House of Representatives, although it was used as the name of the lower house of parliament in Burma, a former British colony.
