Illustration for Parliament Bill

The Speaker will create a way to solve problems about how to interpret or apply parts of a decision they made under section 84(1). You will go through at least two stages to solve the issue. The Speaker's procedure must include the chief executive. The first stage is to assess the issue and see if it can be solved by agreement. If needed, the Speaker will make a final decision in the second stage. The chief executive will take part in this process. The Speaker's procedure will help solve problems about funding and services they decided on. You can expect the chief executive to be involved in solving these issues. The Speaker's decision will be final if the issue cannot be solved by agreement.
