SAYS LITTLE BUT DOES MUCH
The clerk of the British house of commons is appointed by the prime minister with a salary of £ 2,000 a year. This official sits at the upper end of the table, wears a wig and gown, keeps records, signs orders, and reads documents. He controls staff and manages many details of business and acts as the speaker's principal adviser. He is the authoritative guide on procedure and rules, usually quiet and unobtrusive. The role is a personal distinction and a recognition of eminent capacity, especially when a new speaker is elected.
