On the House: An Inside Look at the House of Commons by Rob WalshISBN: 9780773551459
Publication Date: 2017-10-30
Drawing on his years of service to five majority and three minority parliaments, Rob Walsh shares first-hand insights into the inner workings of the House, beyond the political personalities that dominate its proceedings. Neither a procedural manual nor an academic critique, On the House reveals, from Walsh's perspective, the historical origins of the House, its constitutional place in the parliamentary system, the role of committees, legislation, and administration, and its democratic functions.
