Gold Usher

The role of Gold Usher presided over official events of the High Council of Time Lords such as the swearing in of a Lord President of Gallifrey. (DW: The Deadly Assassin)

As the apparent head of all Gallifreyan ceremonies, he was a figure to be reckoned with and an argument in favour of the legality of the Fourth Doctor's inauguration as Lord President. The office of Gold Usher seemed to carry with it a nominal seat on the High Council when the High Council was introduced to their new Vardan masters. (DW: The Invasion of Time)

Gold Usher appeared to preside over the full High Council in the role of a sort of speaker. (NA: Lungbarrow)
