   What does it mean that the Constitution is the supreme law of Singapore?

   정답It means the Constitution stands above all other laws, and any statute or official action inconsistent with it is invalid. Every branch of the State must operate within the limits the Constitution sets.

   Supremacy protects the fundamental rules of the political system from being altered by ordinary legislation, which is why constitutional changes require special parliamentary majorities.

   What is a Member of Parliament?

   정답A Member of Parliament is a representative elected to speak and vote on behalf of the residents of a constituency. Members debate and pass laws, question the Government and raise the concerns of the people they represent.

   What does the Speaker of Parliament do?

   정답The Speaker presides over sittings of Parliament, enforces the rules of debate and keeps proceedings orderly. The Speaker stays neutral and does not join in the arguments of the House.
