[DISCARDED] Repeal: "Ban On Sterilisation Of Minors Etc"
#1

General Assembly Voting Chamber
[Image: buZ52L5.png]
Repeal: "Ban On Sterilisation of Minors Etc"
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
Category: RepealResolution: GA#472Proposed by: Arkhamanishka

General Assembly Resolution #472 “Ban on Sterilisation of Minors etc” (Category: Civil Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Recognising the efforts made in GA #472, Ban on Sterilisation of Minors etc to prevent unnecessary sterilisation of minors;

However dismayed that the resolution bears a misleading title, as it does not actually ban the sterilisation of minors;

Asserting that the purpose of independent review can be achieved with individual qualified medical professionals;

Concerned that Institutional Review Boards, as defined by GA#111, are bureaucratic institutions that are not required to be staffed with medical experts and thus serve no real purpose, except wasting the state's resources in setting up and maintaining such institutions;

Worried that requiring the permission of an Independent Review Board could unnecessarily prolong decision making in an emergency or in time-sensitive cases;

Alarmed that clause two freely allows the World Assembly Compliance Commission (WACC) to create further regulations on behalf of the World Assembly, without needing to consult the will of the combined member nations;

Fearing the precedent could in the future cause the approval of delegates from the World Assembly member nations to become irrelevant to new legislation created directly by the multitudous committees;

Confident that regulations to ensure the proper review procedures for the sterilisation of minors can be instituted by further legislation without reducing the relevancy of member nations in the decisions concerning their own future;

Hereby repeals GA#472 "Ban on Sterilisation of Minors etc".

Alistair Stonesworth and the government of Concrete Slab will be voting against this proposal. We believe the fact that the resolution in question does not specify that trained medical professionals must be on the review boards or that it may take more time to make a decision is not grounds for a repeal. Furthermore, we believe that the repeal is misguided when it states that Clause 2 of the target resolution will set a dangerous precedent where new legislation will be written that delegates duties to committees only. The target resolution does not place sole control in the power of the WACC, only the authority to shape the resolution to each nation's structure. Thus, we will be voting against.
