Answer
Three disciplinary functions of the Speaker are-
- The Speaker maintains order in the House. When members become unruly, he may order them to withdraw. He may suspend a member, if he/she disregards the authority of the Chair. In case of grave disorder, he can adjourn the House.
- In case the words used by a member are indecent or unparliamentary, the Speaker may order that such words be expunged from the proceedings of the House.
- The Speaker decides whether there is a case for a matter relating to a breach of privilege or contempt of the House.
