AT the National Parliament and State Assemblies Speakers Conference 2017 in Shah Alam on May 13, Selangor Ruler Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah spoke of Assembly Speakers as key pillars in the democratic process and urged them to be politically neutral when carrying out their duties.
This commendable royal advice can be seen in the light of British and Irish Parliaments, in which some remarkable constitutional conventions have evolved to preserve the impartiality of the Speaker’s office.
