I tried to include the changes suggested by DM and QuietDad. Thoughts?

The Assembly of the South Pacific,

Hereby resolves the following:

Section A: Charter Amendments

1. The URL "http://thesouthpacific.org/" in Article 9, Clause 1 of the Charter will be replaced with "http://tspforums.xyz".
2. The following shall be added as a clause below Article 9, Clause 1: "Forum Administration may make changes to the forum host, provided that it notifies the Assembly of its intention in a timely manner, and the prescribed URL and database remain intact."

Section B: Transition

1. The Cabinet elected in November 2015 is immediately removed from office.
2. A special election will be held within 72 hours of the passage of this law for all Cabinet positions. Those elected will immediately take their seats and serve the remainder of the interrupted term.
3. Where a Cabinet position is vacant due to resignation, the mandated special election will be suspended in favour of the one mandated in the above clause.
4. Until a new Cabinet is elected, the following citizens shall serve in the Cabinet: Tsunamy as Delegate, Drugged Monkeys as Vice Delegate, Farengeto as Chair of the Assembly, Kringalia as Minister of Foreign Affairs, Siberian Districts as Minister of the Army, Scyllaland as Minister of Regional Affairs.
5. SJS Republic is expelled from the Committee for State Security.

Section C: Reconciliation

1. All who were involved in the Transitional Government of the South Pacific shall receive a full pardon for their actions during the illegal forum move and ensuing coup d'état.
2. A Great Council shall be convened as soon as 7 days and no later than 30 days after a new Cabinet is elected, with a mandate to completely revise all laws of the Coalition.
3. Those who were accepted as citizens on the forum declared illegal by HCLQ1602 may request that their citizenship be recognised on the official forum, and shall have it recognised, provided they pass the required administrative security check.

Section D: Passage Requirements

1. This law shall be held to the same standards of voting and passage as an amendment to the Charter.

I'll admit I'm increasingly less convinced about the need to rush both a special election and the Great Council (even thought I absolutely think we should commit to the idea of a Great Council as soon as possible), but in any case this is only a draft, to keep having something specific to discuss. I welcome all thoughts?

Posts outside High Court venues should be taken as those of any other legislator.
I do not participate in the regional server, but I am happy to talk through instant messaging or on the forum.
