In many parliamentary systems, various political parties can hold chairs in the opposition, depending on their representation and the composition of the legislature. Typically, the main opposition party holds the official Leader of the Opposition role, while other smaller parties may also hold committee chairs or shadow cabinet positions. These parties collectively contribute to scrutinizing government actions and proposing alternative policies. The specific parties involved can vary widely depending on the country's political landscape.
