Interpretation of the Rules of Procedure

The President informed the House, under Rule 211(3), of the following interpretation of Rule 13(1), provided by the Committee on Constitutional Affairs, which had been consulted on the application of that provision:

‘If a Vice-President is to be replaced and there is only one candidate, he or she may be elected by acclamation. The President is empowered to decide, at his discretion, whether the election is to take place by acclamation or by a secret ballot. The candidate elected takes the place of his or her predecessor in the order of precedence.’

The President is empowered to decide, at his discretion, whether the election is to take place by acclamation or by a secret ballot.

If this interpretation was not contested by a political group or by at least 40 Members (Rule 211(4)) before the minutes of the current sitting were approved it would be deemed to have been adopted. Otherwise, the matter would be put to the vote in Parliament (P7_TA(2011)0298).
