The Legislative Assembly has elected me as their Speaker, though I am but little able to fulfill the important duties thus assigned to me.
If, in the performance of those duties, I should at any time fall into error, I pray that the fault may be imputed to me and not to the Assembly whose servant I am, and who, through me, the better to enable them to discharge their duty to their Queen and Country, hereby claim all their undoubted rights and privileges, especially that they have freedom of speech in their debates, access to your person at all seasonable times, and that their proceedings may receive from you the most favourable consideration."
The Government House Leader said:-
"Speaker, I am commanded by His Honour the Lieutenant Governor to declare to you that he freely confides in the duty and attachment of the Assembly to Her Majesty's Person and Government and, not doubting that the proceedings will be conducted with wisdom, temperance and prudence, he grants and upon all occasions will recognize and allow the constitutional privileges.
I am commanded also to assure you that the Assembly shall have ready access to His Honour upon all suitable occasions, and that their proceedings, as well as your words and actions, will constantly receive from him the most favourable construction."
His Honour the Lieutenant Governor was pleased to open the First Session of the Thirty-sixth Parliament by reading the Speech from the Throne (Sessional Paper No. 6) (Tabled November 27, 1995).
