The President of the Legislative Council is the principal officer of the Legislative Council of the Isle of Man. Until 1980, the Lieutenant Governor presided ''ex officio''. From 1980 to 1990, the members elected a President from among their number. Since 1990, the President of Tynwald has been elected by the members of Tynwald from among their number and sits ''ex officio'' as the President. The President of the Council, as the presiding officer, remains impartial; but in the case of a tied vote on a division, the President has a casting vote. He or she is also responsible for controlling the procedure of the Council and for the authoritative interpretation of its Standing Orders, and has the duty of nominating the member of the Council to be responsible for promoting each Bill which is to come before Council. ==Presidents== *The Lieutenant Governor (ex officio), pre-1980 *Mr Jack Nivison MLC CBE JP CP, 1980–1988 *Mr Ian Anderson MLC, 1988–1990 *The President of Tynwald (ex officio), post-1990 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「President of the Legislative Council of the Isle of Man」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
