The opening sitting of the Twentieth House of Representatives, in its third ordinary session, is chaired by the House’s longest-serving member until a Speaker is elected, assisted by the two youngest members present. The House’s Rules of Procedure provide that, in the event of equal seniority, the number of parliamentary terms served is considered first, followed by age. They also bar the chair of the opening sitting from standing for Speaker during the same session. No debate may begin, and no decisions may be taken, before the Speaker is elected. The Constitution provides for the Speaker to be elected at the start of each ordinary session for a one-year term. Meanwhile, four parliamentary blocs have agreed to divide the positions on the Permanent Bureau, with elections to determine who fills them.
