[spoiler=Amendment to Article I]All this amendment does is add a subsection that would clarify that CTEÂ’d nation is no longer a citizen. CTEÂ’d nations do not reside in the region they CTEÂ’d in. It also clarifies the waiting period a CTEÂ’d nation that returns would have to wait before rejoining: 2 weeks. I chose 2 weeks instead of 30 days because TRTHNBB already has one of the longest waiting periods to become citizen for some, and I donÂ’t see why a citizens should have to wait the full time again to rejoin the parliament.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Amendment to Article VII]This amendment will ensure the right to immediately participate in parliament to all nations who want to and are eligible to do so. Without this amendment, a speaker could hypothetically disenfranchise anyone who gains eligibility between the start of the session and the beginning of the next session. Imagine having to wait 7 months between entering the region and joining the Parliament![/spoiler]

[spoiler=Establishment of the Election Commission]This bill introduces the Election Commission, which will be the committee that runs elections. Basically, the bill talks about the powers of the Election Commissioner and Party Representatives, as well as giving direction on how the Election Commissioner can increase participation in elections. This bill is honestly here to codify the way New United Common-Lands ran this previous election, just adding representatives from the various political parties that are popping up.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Honorary Titles Act]The Honorary Titles Act is a bill with fairly low stakes for the region, authorizing Parliament to grant titles to citizens who have contributed a great deal to the region. This bill would allow us to preserve our history and reward nations who have been vital to the maintenance or growth of the region.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Moderator Act]The Moderator Act proposes to establish a new Regional Office, the Moderator. Moderators would basically be nations who are given the power to enforce the Code of Conduct, with the responsibility of reporting all of their actions to the government and the public via the Code of Conduct Log.[/spoiler]

My thoughts.

[Spoiler]Amendment to Article I of the Constitution.

I'd suggest this should just be either Immediate return to being a Citizen or the normal 30 days. Adding in a new 14 days rule make it hard to administer.

Amendment to Article VII of the Constitution

Disagree with this amendment. If you call a session of parliament, My view is that only those nations in Parliament at the start of said session should be able to vote. It could lead to some weird scenarios of nations last minute applying and voting. Also it creates a strange task for the speaker to ask the newly appointed MP to vote. Outside of a session of Parliament then its fine.

Establishment of the Election Commission

I don't agree every Party must have a representative on the commission. I'd prefer wording to the affect of, parties can choose to have a representative on the Election Commission. Again, members may want to be Independent therefore we'd also have allow Citizens to participate. I do think discord should be a requirement of this role. it's going to be really difficult otherwise.. or we will need a seperate forum.

Do we need to suggest a recommended number of Citizens for the commission like 3/4 we don't want it to be massive like its not that difficult to administer an election.

Honorary Titles Act

Agree, like the act good to have this as regional law.

Moderator Act

Agree, this probably needed to be stated, we had no actual law we just announced this was the approach.

Will the position in regional Government be called Moderator. It's been known as Security Officer for a long time now.

As per the constitution, certain Government members act in this role , Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense.[/spoiler]

Section I subsection i covers this, basically a proposal to grant a Title is just the same as any other bill. People can send proposals to the Speaker, who can then introduce those proposals in a Voting Session. If Parliament approves, the Title is granted.

I actually agree that the MoD should have jurisdiction over Moderators as well - this would make a nice amendment to the bill if it passes, and if not I'll definitely be revising to include that. Thanks for the suggestion

1. ThatÂ’s fair, though that was due to the prompt.

2. I have that worded poorly, I meant the beginning of a 6 month session, apologies (because at one point I had to wait months before joining parliament when it was party list based)

3. Â…thatÂ’s how it was until right before the session startedÂ

Here's the election process

[spoiler]

The candidate with more than 50% of first-choice votes, hereafter referred to as a majority, will win the election.

If no candidate has secured a majority of first-choice votes, the election will enter a runoff and the candidate with the lowest number of first-choice votes will be eliminated. Any first-choice vote for an eliminated candidate will be discarded, and the voterÂ’s second choice will be considered instead.

This process of elimination will continue until one candidate has received a majority of votes. This candidate will win the election.[/spoiler]

Alright, the word session isnÂ’t even in that amendment after reading it, so I donÂ’t know why NUCL brought it up besides the question would adding a member be difficult during a voting session, since he brought that point up

May I take the Election Commission bill off of the voting session and hold it til the next one to edit it?

After some discussion with my deputy, Mjau, we have decided for these nations to be part of our cabinet for the first six months of 2024:

Minister of Domestic Affairs - Lawid

Minister of Foreign Affairs - New United Common-Lands (should he be willing following his resignation from Prime Minister only yesterday)

Minister of Defense - Sicario Mercenary Corps

Minister of Culture - Socialistic Britain

The nations above, apart from one, are all ministers from the previous term, all reappointed for this term due to their expertise in their respective positions, the one exception being New United Common-Lands, whose diplomatic expertise during his premiership will be pivotal for representing The Region That Has No Big Banks throughout the international community as minister. All other nations who held more minor positions from the previous premiership continue to hold their positions during this term.

We would also like to introduce the Ministry of Communications, whose focus is on documentation (via The Social Reformer), announcements, and potentially even organizing events, whose position of minister is currently left vacant. Should you be willing to be the inaugural minister of communications, let us know. Until then, have a good day, kind regards from The Washington Federation.

I want to be clear that I stand by every single bill I wrote and all of the content in them. I just wanted to adjust the word “must” in the Article VII amendment to “may” in case the amount of parties increases drastically soon, but I’ll just make an amendment to change it assuming it passes. Second thing, what I write in bills is what I mean. I try to be as straightforward as possible with what a bill means, and if I’m not straightforward enough then that’s my bad. Final thing, vote and ask me if you have any questions about the bills I wrote, I’d be happy to answer!

I have a couple example bills down at the bottom. You might also find the Bill Archive useful, it has links to the full text of former bills so you can see a lot more examples there.

No, that was just a little example bill, which I'm going to make clearer now. There isn't a character limit.

Creation of the Honorary Founder Title & Medal

1/10/2024 | 10/1/2024

Good evening everyone,

I think it goes without saying that New United Common-LandsÂ’s leadership over the past two years and their many contributions to all aspects of our community have directly led us to the unprecedented success we have seen. NUCL has surpassed every expectation IÂ’ve ever had for him, even succeeding in ways which I wasnÂ’t able to do in the past. I really couldnÂ’t have asked for a better Guardian for the region when I relinquished my Delegacy two years ago.

All this is to say, I have established a new medal & title called Honorary Founder. This award is designed to recognize unprecedented service and accomplishments made toward the TRTHNBB Community. The title grants a unique role called ‘Honorary Founder’ both on-site and on Discord, with the Discord role being roped into the already existing ‘Founder’ role. Recipients of the Honorary Founder medal will receive effectively the same or similar status to what I currently serve as Founder (aside from God status of course lol).

Once the Honorary Titles bill passes, we will retroactively incorporate this title under its umbrella.

I hereby bestow unto New United Common-Lands the Title & Medal of Honorary Founder for their exceptional service and accomplishments achieved during their time in leadership over the past two years.

The Washington Federation wrote:After some discussion with my deputy, Mjau, we have decided for these nations to be part of our cabinet for the first six months of 2024:

Minister of Domestic Affairs - Lawid

Minister of Foreign Affairs - New United Common-Lands (should he be willing following his resignation from Prime Minister only yesterday)

Minister of Defense - Sicario Mercenary Corps

Minister of Culture - Socialistic Britain

The nations above, apart from one, are all ministers from the previous term, all reappointed for this term due to their expertise in their respective positions, the one exception being New United Common-Lands, whose diplomatic expertise during his premiership will be pivotal for representing The Region That Has No Big Banks throughout the international community as minister. All other nations who held more minor positions from the previous premiership continue to hold their positions during this term.

We would also like to introduce the Ministry of Communications, whose focus is on documentation (via The Social Reformer), announcements, and potentially even organizing events, whose position of minister is currently left vacant. Should you be willing to be the inaugural minister of communications, let us know. Until then, have a good day, kind regards from The Washington Federation.

Can I be Minister of Communications pls?

btw flag change soon

We are currently undecided on the correct interpretation of our Constitution in terms of the PM creating new Cabinet positions, plus we're still not sure who we think will best fit the position.

as I said, we should wait to see if it passes, and if it does, we will wait for the best possible person (Probably chose by PM & DPM)

I don't think I am allowed to claim but if I am I will take the small and medium-sized islands in the VERY CENTRE and maybe the northern part of the island under it and the southern part of the island over it.

If I was not allowed to do this, no worries, Ill delete this message

This is what I'll call Provisional land.
