Cabinet Orders
Under its inherent executive authority, the Cabinet from time to time issues orders that state an action the Cabinet is taking or a process it is implementing. These can be appointing somebody to an office of the Coalition, defining an internal rule or process, or other things that relate to how the Cabinet does business. These aren't executive orders, as those are for interpreting laws and require final Assembly approval. Cabinet orders apply only to the Cabinet and are limited to what the Cabinet can legally do regarding its own affairs.

The Cabinet will maintain a list of standing orders below and post any regular orders as they are made.

CABINET ORDER 7

Summary | The Cabinet sets regulations for executive ping usage on the regional Discord and requests actions from Discord administration to enable these changes to be made.


The Cabinet,

Recognizing the problem of excessive numbers of Discord "pings" being directed by Cabinet members to the entire Discord server for smaller business while also acknowledging that in the past this has been necessitated due to the lack of more targeted ping options,

Hereby:

1. Requests that Discord administration create five pingable Discord roles which individual Discord users can opt-in to receiving pings for by reacting to a message in the welcome area of the TSP Discord. Specifically, the Cabinet requests these five roles be for: Upvote Squad (upvoting NationStates Dispatches published by TSP), WA Update Ping (giving information about WA voting recommendations and OWL votes), Games and Events (announcing smaller Discord-based games and social events), News and Information (for being informed about smaller news/updates from the government), and Voice Chat (for users who want to be notified when others are voice chatting in the Discord server). In the future, the Cabinet will endeavor to collaborate with Discord administration should changes to this system be required.

2. Requires that Cabinet members use the least invasive ping(s) required to disseminate their message or information when making announcements on Discord. Additionally, Cabinet members must receive Prime Minister permission to use a ping directed towards all users of the TSP Discord, all online users of the TSP Discord, or all citizens of TSP in the Discord server. Cabinet members will disseminate these guidelines to their Ministry staffs that have ping permissions in the TSP Discord.

3. Respectfully asks other government officials and those with permission to conduct pings to apply these same general principles, although not specific procedures, to their use of pings in the TSP Discord.

CABINET ORDER 8

Summary | The Cabinet defines the scope of TSP's treaty obligations in the context of the forthcoming "Frontier/Stronghold" NationStates game update.


The Cabinet of the South Pacific,

Aware of the pending changes to the NationStates metaverse colloquially known as "Frontiers/Stronghold",

Noting that this change introduces a type of region known as a "Frontier" which has a non-executive founder and receives a portion of spawning nations,

Fully aware of the intentional high-risk nature of Frontier regions that will make military conflict in them inevitable,

Expecting that many regions will set up satellite Frontier regions for the purposes of recruitment,

Realizing that extant diplomatic agreements that include non-aggression or mutual defense often do not apply to satellite regions,

Mindful of our principled belief as defenders that regions are sovereign by default,

hereby:

1. Declares that unless otherwise negotiated, the South Pacific will extend any non-aggression or defense obligations toward a region to all its duly declared satellite regions,

2. Reaffirms the commitment of defending vulnerable regions from attack by default.
