(1) Offices of the Coalition are the Delegate, the Prime Minister and Cabinet Ministers, the Chair of the Assembly, Local Councillors, the Permanent Justice, and any of their appointed deputies.

Would changing it to 'Chief Justice' require an amendment or would it (as I presume) fall under the 'typographical errors, grammatical errors, or formatting inconsistencies at any time' as stated in the Legislative Procedure Act?  

I believe not, as it is neither a typographical error, nor a grammatical error, nor an inconsistency in formatting. To clarify:
Quote:(4) The Chair may correct typographical errors, grammatical errors, or formatting inconsistencies at any time, as long as these corrections do not alter the original intent of the law, following a three day period in which the corrections are presented to the assembly for comments. Any such corrections must be recorded with the legislative history of each law.

It was a simple oversight when passing the Judicial Act. Siames is correct, by the way, and that's intentional - while in this case it's quite obvious, if there is a terminology change there is usually a change in the specifics of the role as well, and therefore wherever the old terminology is updated the specific clause should be reviewed.

@Amerion, will you present a draft in a new thread?

One thread would have been enough, probably Tounge but thank you!

Ahh, that's a good point. All these amendments could fall under an omnibus package. Smile

Hello Mr. Chairman,
I wish to inform you that the APC has only two members per its own rules. APC rules require members to be legislators or they are automatically removed from the party. Currently, according to its own roster the APC only has four, two of which are no longer legislators thus they are no longer APC members. As such the APC has fallen below the number of members to be considered a political party.

I request the APC sub form be archived and that the APC officially be seen in all legal matters as an inactive party.

It pains me to do this. The APC was my pride and joy here in TSP. When other regions looked to it as an example of what a party could be I was humbled and overjoyed. But what it became was something that could not sustain itself. It was a grand experiment that showed that good people working together can do great things, but when they grow tired even good people can do nothing. The APC taught me that creating something sustainable is hard, and I still haven’t found a way to do it. And it also taught me that the best people to listen to are the rank and file. No one need a title or to be on a “regional committee” to have ideas that are so undeniably good that one would be foolish not listen.

But today I am here to say this: the APC is dead but the legacy it had at least in myself will forever live on and will continue to shape my own experience here in NS and in leadership for the rest of my life.

Mr. Chairman I thank you for your time and your action regarding the end of the APC

Thank you,
Ω
Founder of the APC
Above all else, I hope to be a decent person.

While I'm sad to see this, I really loved how many cool people I met during the APC, life moves forward and onto bigger and better things.  I think it really is a lasting legacy for you in particular Omega and hope to see more great things from you in the future. You are one of the best people I met through this party and one of the new and great leaders we need more of in TSP.
