Her Excellency has declared the following to be the Senate of the Independent Order following the January 2015 elections DaveIronside Achkaerin Major_Thom James_Ed Cool101jr Tytor Sekkanar So nominate your choice as Speaker, please remember those among you who have accepted Ministerial portfolio's cannot be Speaker and Dave as Premier is obviously disqualified. May I also remind whoever the new Speaker happens to be that their first two responsibilities will be the appointment of a Deputy Speaker and the appointment of a new Clerk of the Assembly (since I believe with Cool now in the Senate that position is now empty) And with that cast your votes now. |

I will wait to see who is in the ministry before making a nomination. I should also note that I will be serving in a ministry in the upcoming term, and thus an not eligible for this position. | |||

Last I checked, I'm eligible. I've had my fill of executive government (and nobody wants me, but who's asking?). I would be happy to accept this nomination. |

Dave has now presented his Orders in Council so we now know who the people with Ministerial Portfolio's are (myself, Dave, Cool, Thom and James) This does make the situation with regards to Speaker quite easy since we're left with just Tytor and Sekkanar who are eligible therefore I back the nomination of Tytor. I suggest those left to vote also back this so we can get on with things. |

Personally I think Tytor is the best choice for speaker regardless of the minister positions. He's always been extremely thorough with his involvement in government and I sense we've a lot of pending legislation nd need a speaker with good understanding of the system. I too back his nomination | |||

I believe Tytor now has a majority and so is officially now the Speaker of the Senate- congratulations. I now repeat what I stated earlier and remind the Speaker that as per the constitution he is required to appoint a Deputy Speaker. I also repeat that I believe that since Cool101jr is now a Senator we have a situation where there is no Clerk of the Assembly so I believe that under the Representation of the People Act (2014) the Speaker is required to appoint a new Clerk of the Assembly. |

Two things: first, who's actually in the CA? Second, would Sekk please step forward? I'd like to know if you'd accept nomination as my deputy. |

I fully support Tytor's nomination for speaker... Though it appears the speaker appointment process was sorted out handily whilst I was at class. Also, I am fine with becoming the deputy speaker. |

As for the CA I think we could do with promoting it a bit more to potential new members. As for who is in I'm not 100% sure, I know Dijel has done the job in the past. | |||

The way I see it there are three options 1) Reappoint Dijel he's done the job before, it's just a question as to whether he thinks he can be active enough. 2) Temporarily appoint Sekk- since the job is effectively the same as the Speaker it could be invaluable experience for Deputy Speaker. 3) Allow Cool to remain in post- even if it's just temporary until an appointment's made Also I suggest that whoever is appointed be asked to put a temporary block on the Assembly Docket (as in refusing to accept legislation for debate) until the backlog that is inside the CA is for the most part cleared- there is stuff in there that needs to be sorted out. |

We need to pick someone who's actually a member of the CA. Is Dijel? | |||
