Edition 2- 24th of April 2020
WELCOME TO THE SECOND EDITION OF YOUR LEGISLATOR'S DIGEST It has been a crazy past couple of months, and as we saw, Assembly activity slowed down considerably, and life had become somewhat too busy for me to sustain these updates weekly. It is my sincerest wishes that everyone is staying safe in these unprecedented times, and as things begin returning to normal, I hope to be able to provide more frequent updates to the Assembly.
NEW DISCUSSIONS:
Right now in the assembly, there has been a few discussions in the Assembly since March.
Amendment to the Regional Officers Act After the passage of an amendment to the Regional Officers Act last January that would remove Regional Officer slots from half of the team (a result of the discussions to split the Ministry of Regional Affairs and/or add a World Assembly Affairs ministry, Farengeto noted that, at present, three members of the Council on Regional Security would lose their Regional Officer slot. At present, a draft to modify the language a little in order to allow the CRS to occupy at least three Regional Officer slots was discussed. The draft went to vote and passed through the Assembly. Another subsequent amendment to the same act was discussed as well, but was abandoned as it was deemed unnecessary at this time. The Cultural Act The Cultural Act was proposed as a way to codify The South Pacific's cultural identity and design code. The bulk of the comments on the act have been over the recipe for S.P.I.T. and some legislators pointed out that it may be overlegislation. A Law on Double Posting Legislator and Local Council member Rabbitz had brought up the issue on the debate for Double Posting on the RMB to the assembly, in hopes to codify the legality of the Assembly. However, as Chair of the Assembly Phoenix pointed out, passing that law through the Assembly is illegal, as determined by the Charter of the Coalition, Article V Section 2. Electoral Reform Resulting from discussion in another thread, the Electoral Reform proposed solely electing the Prime Minister and allowing the Prime Minister to appoint the other Ministers. Debate on Splitting the Ministry of Regional Affairs Once again, the Assembly has begun to discuss splitting the Ministry of Regional Affairs, this time into a Ministry of Internal Affairs and a Ministry of Cultural Affairs. Interested in becoming a legislator and voicing your opinions on these and future matters? Why don't you check out this thread to find out how to apply?
