The seats in the room are arranged in a hemicycle with a raised dais with desks and chairs where the officials of the body sit. The Speaker's chair sits in the Center of the dais. Behind the Speaker's chair is the Sultan's throne. Between the dais and the seats of the hemicycle is a lectern where speakers can speak.
