The Speaker is responsible for controlling the flow of House business and acts as referee during debates. It is the Speaker s duty to ensure that the rules of the House for conducting its business are followed and that all Members of the House have an opportunity to take part in debates. Balancing the right of the majority to conduct business with the right of the minority to be heard is one of the Speaker s most difficult tasks. Because it is essential that the Speaker be seen to be above ..., the casting vote is conventionally used in a way to promote further discussion in the house rather than ending the debate. All remarks made in the House must be addressed to the Speaker ... from within the House or from outside the House.

For a Speaker to be appointed he must qualify to be a Member of the House of Representatives of Malta , this criterion being specifically of important consideration for those appointed from outside the House.
