head of the legislature

Assignment of the multiple competencies to the "Speaker of the Legislature" in various laws and regulations, and the necessity for his presence in various councils and assemblies, make clear the necessity for his appointment. So, the main question in this article is, what title is applied to the head of the legislature? In answer to this question, by using the analytical-descriptive method, it can be said that in the absence of external evidence and in terms of the different qualifications enumerated in different laws for the President of the Islamic Consultative Assembly as well as absurdity of this establishment, these powers are beyond the control of the Majlis and also, given the significant role of the Majlis in the legislative process compared to the role of the Guardian Council and the Expediency Council, it can be said that the title of the legislature is applicable to the "Speaker of the Parliament". If the relation of the head of the legislature with the parliament and its representatives is taken into account, then the Speaker of the parliament would be used and if his/her relation is compared with institutions and authorities outside the parliament, then the term Legislature would be proper to be applied.

In the study of the issues of Constitutional Law, the analysis of the position of public officials in the light of their competencies is the most important approach to assessing their authority in the political arena. When an official becomes a powerful figure amongst his other counterparts, the importance of studying the status of this position is of double importance. The speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly has a wide-ranging and private jurisdiction in Iran's legal system in a comparative look to his other counterparts. Considering the dimensions of the competence of the Speaker of the Parliament, given the internal and external work of this public official with a comparative view of other legal systems, leads us to the fact that the speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly has a special place in the legal system of Iran. In this paper, in a descriptive and analytical way, we question the position of the speaker of the parliament as the head of the legislature, and in the wider sense of the reasons and reasons for the presidency of the legislature, what are the credentials and qualifications. Meanwhile, we have explained the extensive authority of this position, which is confirmed by the speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly to prove the chairmanship of the legislature, and we have achieved such an achievement that the speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly serves as the head of the legislative branch of the Iranian legal system. In some cases, this position is criticized also in legal principles in Legal Systems.
