I have decided to appoint @BlockBuster2K43 as my Deputy following my offer due to my unfortunate and unforeseen events. I believe in their abilities to aid me and look forward to working with them.
For the extent of the Deputy Chair's powers which can be exercised without the Chair's explicit prior approval (albeit with notification to the Chair), please refer to the following list:
Open and close votes
Generally including relevant sub-powers (such as slightly editing a bill to comply with formatting before bringing it to vote)
Sub-powers that need to be motioned (e.g. waive debate time, cancel voting) if informing the Chair beforehand
Approve Leaves of Absence
Approve Political Parties' subforum petitions if informing the Chair beforehand
Archive inactive discussions
Fulfilling most writing based projects (RMB updates, Gazette, etc.)
