Each member has 1 vote. Voting in parliament is done through voice tally, the speaker/president will ask those in favor of a motion to say aye, then those to the contrary no then declare a winner.

If any member of the parliament feels this decision was wrong then they can call a division, what happens here is that bells ring all over the building to alert members to a vote, then after a few minutes the chamber is shut and those that agree with the motion move to the right of the speaker, those that disagree to the left of the speaker and they are physically counted.

What type of voting system do you have in australia?

Talking about elections to the federal parliament, for elections in the lower house we have preferential voting. What this means basically is that we vote for EVERY candidate in order of preference, if when the votes are counted no candidate has a majority, the candidate with the lowest number of votes is knocked out, and their votes redistributed based on who those people ranked as no#2, this process goes on until 1 candidate has a majority (50% +1) In the upper house we use proportional representation, that voting system is even more complicated, but the result is that the %age of the vote translates to the same %age of seats, so if the Liberal Party got 35% of the vote, they will end up with 35% of the seats.

What type of voting system does Greece use?

The political system in Greece is Parliamentary Republic, which means that they have a prime minister, a parliament and a president. The president is mostly typical. People vote in general elections for Prime minister and the parliament every four years and then the parliament votes for President every five. There are also the "local elections" which are every four years for mayors etc. The polotical party with the majority of the votes wins and has to present the cabinet to the president. the parliament votes and accepts it or not. If they don't (lack of majority) then the president doesn't confirm it and they have to redo it. I hope I am helping you a little
