The Legislator Committee, sometimes known as LegComm, is the body that screens and admits applicants to Legislator status. Members of the Legislator Committee are proposed by the Cabinet and confirmed by the Assembly.

History

Legislator applications were handled by the Chair of the Assembly from (date) to late 2017. In December 2017 the Chair of the Assembly was considered an unwieldy job, with many holders resigning before completing their term. Legislator applications were accepted infrequently. In response to these issues, the Legislator Committee was formed to handle legislator applications and lighten the administrative load on the Chair of the Assembly. The Legislator Committee Act was passed on 3 December 2017. Glen-Rhodes, as Chair at the passage of the bill, was grandfathered in as the first member of the Legislator Committee.

On 10th May 2018, the Cabinet issued an executive order to permit the appointment of an emergency member of the Legislator Committee if all existing members were unavailable. In June 2018, the Legislator Committee Act was declared unconstitutional by the High Court as it had more power than allowed to a general law. An [executive order] was issued to reinstate the Legislator Committee Act as a constitutional law rather than general. In April 2021, the Legislator Committee's maximum size was expanded to five members.
