Parliamentary counsel are lawyer s who prepare legislation that it is proposed to pass into law. The term Parliamentary draftsman is also widely used. These terms are used in relation to the United Kingdom parliament , and other parliaments on the Westminster system . The official title, and organization, of the parliamentary counsel varies between legislatures. For example, those who draft government legislation for the UK parliament form the Parliamentary Counsel Office established in 1869 under the title of the Office of Parliamentary Counsel while the Office of the Scottish Parliamentary Counsel drafts legislation for the Scottish Parliament , the Office of the Legislative Counsel drafts legislation for the Northern Ireland Assembly and the Office for the Welsh Legislative Counsel performs the same role for the Welsh Government . In the Republic of Ireland , there is an Office of the Parliamentary Counsel to Government . In Australia, each state, territory and the federal government has an Office of the Parliamentary Counsel. The job of a parliamentary draftsman is to draft the detailed form of proposed law s, in a way that will accurately reflect the intentions of the politicians who are promulgating them, without leaving loopholes or producing perverse results. This is an almost impossible task, and the pursuit of exact and watertight legislation has often resulted in obscure and convoluted language. Such language has been criticised both by government bodies such as the committee under Sir David Renton that reported in 1975 and recommended drafting which was more based on principles than specific details to address every possible situation . In parliamentary discussion, the draftsman is rarely if ever referred to by name, but only as an office.

Other uses Opposition disambiguation Unreferenced date January 2008 Parliamentary opposition is a form of opposition politics political opposition to a designated government, particularly in a Westminster System Westminster based parliamentarysystem. Note that this article uses the term Executive government government as it is used in Parliamentary systems, i.e. meaning the administration or the cabinet rather than the state . The title of Official Opposition usually goes to the largest of the parties sitting in opposition with its leader being given the title Leader of the Opposition . In First Past the Post assemblies, where the Duverger s Law tendency to gravitate into two major political party parties or party groupings operates strongly, government and opposition roles can go to the two main groupings serially in alternation. In this context, the opposition forms a recognised, even semi official government in waiting . Its opposing can degenerate into a charade pending the eventual exchange of roles and occupation, or reoccupation, of the Treasury benches. The more proportional a representative system, the greater the likelihood of multiple political parties appearing in the parliamentary debating chamber. Such systems can foster multiple opposition parties which may have little in common and minimal desire to form a united bloc opposed to the government of the day. Some well organised democracies, dominated long term by a single faction, reduce their parliamentary opposition to tokenism . Singapore exemplifies a case of a numerically weak opposition South Africa under the apartheid regime maintained a long term imbalance in the parliament. In some cases tame opposition parties are created by the governing groups in order to create an impression of democratic debate.
