PRESSURE IS mounting on Speaker of the House of Representatives Marisa Dalrymple-Philibert to step aside as the presiding officer in the Lower House until the eight charges she is facing are dealt with by a court of law.

The charges relate to breaches of the Parliament (Integrity of Members) Act and the Integrity Commission Act.

The Opposition has called on House Speaker Marisa Dalrymple-Philibert to resign, pending the outcome of deliberations on the report from the Integrity Commission regarding false declaration.

When the report and ruling from the Commission was tabled in the Lower House yesterday (September 19), the Speaker referred the matter to the Integrity Commission Oversight and Ethics Committees.

Opposition Leader, Mark Golding rose to pose questions but was not allowed by the Speaker, resulting in all the Opposition Member of Parliaments walking out.

She just resigned as both Speaker of the House and Member of Parliament.
Good riddance.
