Parliament of the Daleks

The Parliament of the Daleks is a fictional government organization featured in the British science fiction television series Doctor Who. It appeared in the first episode of series seven, "Asylum of the Daleks". The Parliament of the Daleks represented the governing body of the Dalek alien race.

The Parliament of the Daleks convened, along with an entire armada of Dalek ships, to devise a plan relating to the Dalek Asylum planet, which had suffered a security breach, which threatened to let loose hundreds of battle-scarred and insane Daleks. Seeing beauty in hatred, the Daleks were unwilling to sacrifice themselves in order to curtail this potential threat, so instead, they kidnapped the Eleventh Doctor, Amy Pond and Rory Williams, and forced them to go the asylum to disarm the planetary force field, at which point, they would be able to use their orbital weaponry to destroy the entire facility.

While carrying out this task, the Doctor found Oswin Oswald, who was a human who had crash-landed on the planet over a year ago. Due to the nanotechnology in the planet's atmosphere, she underwent a complete cybernetic conversion, thus becoming a Dalek herself. Her mind could not process such intense trauma, so she fashioned a dreamscape reality for herself, wherein she was living in the cockpit of the crashed ship. Through her own skills, and the abilities allowed to her by being a Dalek, Oswin was able to hack into all of the Dalek's systems, including the computer core of the Daleks themselves. She assisted the Doctor in shutting down the force field, but also did him one extra favor before the Daleks bombarded the planet: She removed all data relating to the Doctor from their collective consciousness.

When the Doctor, Amy, and Rory returned to the Dalek ship, they Parliament of Daleks had no idea who they were. The Doctor identified himself as "The Doctor", but the Daleks were not satisfied with simply a title, and intoned repeatedly amongst the entire Parliament, "Doctor who?".
