| | Parliamentary system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Parliamentary systems usually have a clear differentiation between the head of government and the head of state, with the head of government being the prime minister or premier, and the head of state often being an appointed figurehead with only minor or ceremonial powers. | | | Under the parliamentary system the roles of head of state and head of government are more or less separated. | | | Parliamentary systems vary as to the degree to which they have a formal written constitution and the degree to which that constitution describes the day to day working of the government. |

| | A few examples where parliamentary procedure is practiced include Congress, county commissioners, school boards, local fair boards and county 4-H clubs and committees. | | | A member seeks permission to speak to initiate a motion by simply raising his/her hand or standing and saying "Mister/Madam President..." When the president recognizes the member, that member has the floor and may speak. | | | Most parliamentary procedure is based on Robert's Rules of Order which describes procedures on how to conduct items of business. |
