List of Speaker of the Dutch House of Representatives elections
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Since 1983, an election for Speaker of the House of Representatives is held when the House first convenes after a general election, or when a sitting speaker dies, resigns, or is removed from the position. Before 1983, a new Speaker was chosen at the start of every parliamentary year by the monarch, who usually selected the nominee put forward by the House.
