Why did Directive #2 meet its fate?

Continuing with the example of England and Wales, costs recovery in small claims in England and Wales is restricted to the applicable issue and hearing fees and a sum fixed by the Civil Procedure Rules for commencement of a claim (leaving aside disbursements for witness expenses and the like)...

I am aware as to the structure of court fees and costs in England and Wales, that is why my example so closely mirrors that structure. It is not a case of a lender per se but the company in the example would entitled to judgment for a sum in debt. I say advisedly that claims of the sort in the...

It is Comfed’s Bill, not mine. My point is that I would hope the community would not be welcoming of a known forum destroyer and that I would have thought there would be a prospect that, in the interest of protecting this forum, the Administration may act if they thought there was a risk posed...

The issue becomes, though, that there may be persons interested in our region who are not resident. Indeed, we have a prominent example in one of our Deputy Speakers, who was once banned from NationStates and yet participated in a number of aspects of our region’s life. While I would expect if...

It is plainly the purpose of the convention to prohibit acts of forum destruction wherever they occur and for parties to it to assert their entitlement to punish such acts. It is right to say that it would not be a wise use of time to prosecute a person not interested in coming to our region...

The crime of spamming already exists, it is not created by this Bill.

I think you have missed what I am driving at. This is an example (and I admit not an especially sympathetic one in terms of the example creditor): A creditor, let us say a parking company entitled to enforce a small civil debt of £100, issues a claim, let us say in a Unified Kingdom that would...

“Person” is used in a number of parts of the Code. It is used as part of defining espionage, in section 1.2 “7. The information shared must not be accessible to a person who is not a member of the region or group it is gathered from except by cracking technical security measures.” For those...

A wise Bill and an example of the risks attendant on judicial tinkering with constitutional prior decisions.

I have a couple of thoughts around clause 6.a. The first relates to low-value civil debt. There may be member states which have systems for small claims which are quite restrictive in allowing costs recovery, which could mean the value of debt is exceeded by unrecovered costs in contested...

Mr Speaker, In relation to the guide on processing citizenship applications, is it intended that this will be amended to reflect the current process following failed assessments in step 5 and, in particular, to remove reference to appeals following failed administrative assessment and replace...

Against. It seems like this proposal does not do that much and what it does do it may as well leave to member states. Member states have to license deep learning developers, but the standards for being license or what the standards are to achieve are left to member states, beyond avoiding...

Thoughts on all this: linky?

For the nominee: Do you intend to stand in two or more of the next three regularly scheduled elections? I don’t think you have been a Commissioner previously(?), is that just because appointment hasn’t been offered to you previously or have there been previous offers you’ve not taken up? If the...

Congratulations to the victors and commiserations to the rest.

My thanks for the Court’s swift action on this request

I request the declassification of such private court records as are contained in the Justices’ private forum or private archive and which are of one year of age, subject to the redaction of such private information as is prescribed by the Court Rules.

I don’t think that I would be likely to support this proposal if it were to proceed to a vote. I think, as has been suggested, this is something that really can be left to the executive. However, I include below some comments and suggestions for amendments to the draft. I don’t see that the...

Could you give an example of part of the Legal Code that you think would be appropriate for annotation and how you might annotate it? Would you be minded to limit annotation to the Code or would you extend it to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights?

How many Deputy Speakers would you appoint if elected? What roles would you see them as having, would they all have the same role or would you give some different responsibilities to others? If you would give them different responsibilities, how would you choose which responsibilities to give to...

Which parts of the Rules do you think need clarifying? Could you give an example of what explanation you might give of a particular rule, which could be incorporated into a guide or given to a member who had a query during proceedings on a Bill?

Could you explain what you understand to be the Speaker’s powers and role in scheduling the business of the Regional Assembly? Particularly, in relation to a Bill that a member has introduced and asked to be voted on? Do you think complexity or controversy relating to a Bill should make a...

Forgive me for being unaware of the procedural goings-on of this last term. In relation to immediate vote scheduling, is your intention to amend Section 1, rule 4 of the Rules on the motion to require immediate votes or rule 2 concerning the scheduling of voted more generally? If the latter...
