Legislative Assembly of Alberta

The Legislative Assembly is the focal point of our democratic process. It is responsible for the passing of laws, the approval of policies and the development of programs, all of which affect our way of life in Alberta. Legislative Assembly Office employees provide nonpartisan, procedural, administrative and educational services to the Members of the Legislative Assembly and the public. Established in 1983, the origins of Alberta’s Legislative Assembly Office can be traced back to 14th-century England, when Parliament elected the first Speaker and appointed the first Clerk. The Legislative Assembly Office works hard to uphold and abide by parliamentary tradition while at the same time ensuring our operations are run in a nonpartisan manner and respond to the needs of the Members we serve. The Legislative Assembly Office is a unique entity separate from government with the dedication and commitment to provide all Members of the Legislative Assembly, regardless of party affiliation, with the support they need to represent and serve their constituents.
