    Formal Constitutional Draft

    "Will" when used in this draft indicates something which is required, so using it or the equivalent "shall" could result in the clause being read as the Assembly has to then ratify the treaty and bring it into force. That was why I chose "may", that is, the Regional Assembly may elect not to...

    I know that in the past I said I wasn't going to allow things like this, but now I'm on the receiving end of a mess-up I can see why it would be practical sometimes and why people wanted it. Lesson learned >___< At least I closed all those hasty votes anyway so I don't have to feel quite as bad...
