Salary of the Speaker
Since, a Speaker is also a member of the Parliament, he or she comes under the Salary, Allowances and Pension of Parliament Act of 1954, which was amended in December 2010. According to this particular Act, the salary of the Speaker is Rs 50,000 per month, along with a Constituency allowance of Rs 40,000 per month. The Speaker is also entitled to a Daily Allowance of Rs 2,000 while he/she attends a parliamentary session or other committee meetings, for the whole of the term.
Powers and functions of the Speaker
The Speaker of the Lok Sabha conducts the business in
house; and decides whether a bill is a money bill or not. They
maintain discipline and decorum in the house and can punish a member for their
unruly behavior by suspending them. They also permit the moving of various
kinds of motions and resolutions such as a motion of no confidence, motion
of adjournment, motion of censure and calling attention notice as per
the rules. The Speaker decides on the agenda to be taken up for discussion
during the meeting. The date of election of the speaker is fixed by the
President. Further, all comments and speeches made by members of the House are
addressed to the speaker. The speaker also presides over the joint sitting of
both Houses of Parliament. The counterpart of the Speaker in the Rajya Sabha is
the Chairman, who is the Vice President of India. In the warrant of
precedence, the speaker of Lok Sabha comes next only to The Deputy Prime
Minister of India. Speaker has the sixth rank in the political executive of
India.
Removal of the Speaker
Speaker can be removed by the Lok Sabha by a resolution passed by an effective majority of the House as per Articles 94 and 96.
Speaker is also removed on getting disqualified for
being Lok Sabha member under sections 7 & 8 of Representation
of the People Act, 1951. This would arise out of speaker's wrong
certification of a bill as money bill inconsistent with the definition given
in Articles 110 of the constitution. When courts uphold the
unconstitutional act of the speaker for wrong certification of a bill as money
bill, it amounts to disrespecting the constitution deserving conviction
under Prevention of Insults to National Honour Act, 1971 which is
applicable for disqualification of speaker's Lok Sabha membership under section
8k of Representation of the People Act, 1951. However the omissions in the
procedure committed by the speaker in the Lok Sabha can not be challenged in
court of law per Article 122
