As of 2016, the Prospector Party currently forms the government with a majority in both chambers. The Speaker of the House acts as the leader of the House while the Prime Minister acts as the President of the Senate. Parliament is endowed with many powers as outlined in the Constitution. Most notably, it has the power to appoint the Prime Minister, who is nominated by the House and confirmed by the Senate, a system which has resulted in deadlocks on several occasions due to opposing parties controlling different chambers. Parliament is not beholden to the Crown or the Monarch, though swears fidelity to him by tradition but this is not required by the Constitution, which states Parliament is independent of the ruling monarch.
