[CANCELLED] A2208.03 [2234.AB] Reviving Leave of Absence Reform - The Haughtherlands - 08-27-2022





Legislators of the South Pacific,

There has been a seconded motion to bring a Revival of Leave of Absence Reform, an amendment to the Legislator Committee Act, to vote. The debate thread can be found here.

This is an amendment to constitutional legislation, according to the Legislative Procedure Act requiring a majority greater than 60% to pass. The voting period will be 5 days, thus concluding on (16:00 in London, 11:00 in New York, 01:00 on Aug 31 in Sydney).

Please vote by poll if possible. If you cannot vote by poll, post 'Aye', 'Nay' or 'Abstain' in this thread. Please do not vote both by poll and by post. Comments and discussions belong in the debate thread and should be posted there.

This vote will be designated A2208.03

The text of the bill is as follows:
 
Legislator Committee Act

An Act to establish a Commission to manage Legislators
[...]

3. Legislator Checks

[...]

(3) A legislator fails the voting requirement if they are absent for more than half of all votes finished in the previous calendar month, if a minimum of two votes occurred. Legislators who have an approved leave of absence from the Chair shall not be considered absent for votes in the given time frame.

(4) Legislators may request a leave of absence for a definite period of time subject to discretionary approval from the Chair or their deputies. During such time, legislators on a leave of absence are exempt from the voting requirement.

(4) (5) The Chair of the Assembly may order the Legislator Committee to suspend legislator privileges for disruptive members. Frequent suspensions may be grounds for ineligibility, if found appropriate in a fair trial by the High Court.

[...]

The OP says we're amending the Legislative Procedure Act in a vote lasting three days and needing only a majority to pass.


RE: [AT VOTE] A2208.03 [2234.AB] Reviving Leave of Absence Reform - Jay Coop - 08-28-2022

I motion to cancel voting to rephrase the proposed bill to further clarify how one requests a leave of absence.

I second the motion to cancel voting.
