Just over five hours ago, the APC (Alliance for the Preservation of the Coalition) chose to retract their proposed draft for a new charter for the Coalition.  The draft was posted on the 24th of April as part of the current Great Council, in line with APC's mandate to preserve the Coalition, and has undergone several changes since its initial version.  During a week of sometimes intense discussion, the finer points of the delegacy and the judicial system were examined, with the APC willing to be very flexible with what they originally set down.  The thread has been since the end of April, however, as the discussion moved onto other proposed charter drafts.
The APC's main goal with the proposal was to promote discussion, something which was certainly achieved in the APC draft proposal thread.  With the proposal retracted, only two charter drafts remain under discussion: one proposed by South Pacific Delegate, Tsunamy and another created by a working group led by Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs, Sandaoguo, and all citizens are encouraged to take part in the final stages of the drafting process.  APC chair, Omega, said of their charter proposal, 

Quote:We believe that we got discussion started and have helped to further the political discussion in our region. However, we do agree that both remaining drafts are high quality and would serve our region we are choosing to support the proposal set out by Tsunamy.
