Does it? I though the Cabinet just negotiated and proposed treaties.

Yes, the Treaties Act stipulates that only the Cabinet can start the process of ending a treaty. In this case, since there’s no violation on the other signatories’ ends, the Cabinet must propose repeal in the Assembly. *Then* we can vote on it.

This is a separation of powers thing.

The article, for a reminder:
Quote:(3) Should the Cabinet wish to dissolve a treaty for reasons other than the violation of its terms, they must notify the Assembly. The Assembly will debate for at least five days, and then vote on its repeal. Should a vote on its repeal pass with majority support, the treaty will be dissolved officially, and the signatory notified promptly.

EDIT: Relevant treaty clause too.
Quote:(d) Should a region wish to resign as a signatory of CAIN, it may do so by going through the process of withdrawing from this treaty in accordance with its internal laws and disseminating a public notice of withdrawal. Such notices must be released in a way that reaches a majority of signatories.

This is what happens when I go through assembly threads too quickly Blush

Yep, you're right. I'm on it.
