Actually, we are looking at 5 days of debate on this. It's a constitutional law amendment.
Above all else, I hope to be a decent person.

I would explicitly name the limited positions to prevent people trying to argue "it doesn't apply here". Besides that, I do agree with the EO and noticed the problems just last night when checking something out.

I am honestly surprised that such a hole in the laws existed.

You would NOT be able to hold more than one of the following positions at the same time:
Delegate
Prime Minister
Cabinet Minister
Deputy Minister
Permanent Justice
Chair of the Assembly
Local Councillor/Local Council Representative (it's up to the LC if the same person can hold both of these, but that person would not be able to hold another position in this list at the same time)

You WOULD be able to hold one or both of the following positions and one of the above:
Council on Regional Security
Election Commissioner

I'm running against two people this directly effects. If it passes it could change the whole election, possibly in my favor. That's why i see it as a CoI

Nobody currently running would suddenly become ineligible. They would simple have to resign their current position if they win.

Whilst supporting legislation to return such a prohibition into regional law, I have a number of issues with this specific method;

1. Seeing how there is nothing in the Charter that states that CRS members are "explicitly allowed" to hold other offices, have Tsu and DM resigned from it?

2. Why has the Local Council, which is a political representative role, been included with government roles? The Local Council is not a branch of government. To be entirely frank, the wording of this EO and the additional information attached to - notably the fact that the Cabinet wishes to include the LC in this - seems a political attempt to prevent Seraph and myself from holding the office of CoA.

3. Why has this been persuaded via Executive Order, rather than ordinary legislation? To be frank again, this simply reinforces my view that this is a political attempt to eliminate Seraph and myself from the CoA election. I struggle to see an immediate and pressing issue outside of the current CoA election.

*suddenly comes into the Private Hall, walking casually while looking around, carrying a big brown box*

*puts it on the ground and points to the label on the box, which says "Immediate and pressing issues for all occasions. For more information call 1-800-LAMPSHADE" and calmly walks away*

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.

@sandaoguo Are we deliberately not including military positions(General) on that list of yours or is that an accident?
