The number of seats that a party has in the Assembly is in proportion to the number of voters that voted for it in the elections. National Assembly is led by the Speaker. In performing his or her functions, the Speaker is assisted by the Deputy Speaker and three House Chairpersons, each with specific areas of responsibility determined by the Speaker.
