Maintenance of Parliamentary decorum 5. Eloquence in Legislature 6. Legislators-Intermediaries between the citizens and their Government 7. Conflicting demands 8. The need to make the institution of Parliament more effective in overseeing the Executive can hardly be over emphasised.
Parliament is a body composed of the elected representatives of the people.
Its strength and effectiveness as a representative body, therefore,depends to a great extent, on the dedication, zeal and knowledge of its Members. A legislator, in fact, is several persons in one - a representative of his constituency, a member of the Legislature, sometimes a Minister, a party man and often a member or spokesman of a particular interest or a community. His obligations are many and not always easy to reconcile. He owes loyalty to the people of the constituency that return him to the Legislature, the party to which he belongs, and above all, to the nation as a whole. Though the House may be polite to a new entrant to its ranks, it is never too friendly.
