However, although the reis ül-küttab attended the meetings of the Council, arriving before and leaving after the viziers, he had no right to speak himself in it or directly to the Sultan, and was obliged to do so via the Grand Vizier.
Walaupun reis ül-küttab menghadiri pertemuan dewan, tiba sebelum dan pergi setelah wazir; dia tidak berhak berbicara sendiri atau secara langsung kepada Sultan, dan diwajibkan untuk melakukannya melalui Wazir Agung.
