"content": "In other words, to fill in the gap, the practice there clearly is that the election will in future be by secret ballot. Here I am quoting at page 280, 23rd Edition of Erskine May's, Treatise on The Law,Privileges, Proceedings and Usage of Parliament under a paragraph headed, \"Election of A Speaker By the Commons\". So, it does appear that, at least, as far as the House of Commons practice is concerned now, the election is by secret ballot. Therefore, we can import the implication that an hon. Member comes here, gets a vote, marks and proceeds to vote. One can imply that it is marked by secret ballot."
