With my intent to begin building up my region and moving it into the wider world I would like to ask that The North Pacific stop trying to legislate my region. To that end I propose the following resolution to amend the Legal Code:
For reference there are 8 instances where this problem occurs...
I would like to request that the court review the actions of Election Commissioner Jamie in regards to the posted results of the Special Election(s) for the vacant Justice seats that ended June 9th.
A look at the ballot clearly shows the way in which one was supposed to post their vote and...
In regards to a recent conversation on IRC I would like to know if members of the Security Council are considered government officials. I can find nothing in the laws that explicitly states one way or another aside from RA Rule 2 which defines its use of holding an office as: "3. "Holding an...
If elected delegate I promise to immediately break my oath of office and force the RA to recall me. Then creating a need to have a special election in which I will run on the same platform and with luck force us into an unending loop.
I'm really not trying or caring, I have no chance of ever...
From a legal standpoint the job of the VD is rather simple, be second in endorsements in case something happens to the delegate and chair the SC. The second part is what I really want to focus on with my campaign.
The SC is a useful body, but isn't being used to its fullest potential. A big...
Honestly, I give up. I'm tired of all these constant problems leading one into another. A problem comes up so a fix is created, but then this fix causes something else to be a problem. It may not be noticed immediately but somewhere down the road it is becomes an issue. So what is the solution...
As there is no formal announced policy on this, it would be best to have one written up. With that in mind, the Speaker is allowed to lay out a set of guidelines for proposed legislation and voting, as stated by Article II, Section Two of the Constitution. A lot of this is common sense stuff but...
Following the court ruling declaring that RA Rule 1, which deals with the counting of abstain votes, is in violation of procedure as set by the Constitution and is therefore unconstitutional, except in cases of elections as defined in TNP Law 26 the policy regarding the voting rights of the...
As this proposal is a significant change to the Legal Code, by both having a number of changes included and an entirely new structure, I'm opening this straw poll to see how the RA feels about this idea.
I've added an actual poll so people can express their opinion anonymously. You don't need...
Judicial Elections are scheduled by law to begin on the 1st of April. As we're currently less than one week away from away from this date with no election commission being chosen by the office of the delegate it falls to me as Speaker to select one or more.
As such I select myself and Eluvatar...
In regards to the current constitution and legal code what do we like and feel should be left alone or tweaked slightly, and what do we feel is in need of major revision?
As we get a general idea of what people feel needs changed the most we can begin to work on that area first to improve upon...
With the recall of Blue Wolf from office we must now hold a special election for the office of Delegate.
The period for nominations or declarations of candidacy will be open from 8:30 GMT (4:30 AM EDT) on March 23th, 2012 until 8:30 GMT (4:30 AM EDT) on March 28th, 2012.
Voting will run begin...
Policies and Procedures of the Regional Assembly:
Regional Assembly Procedures - As adopted by the Regional Assembly on the dates listed after each rule.
Proposal and Voting Policy - As maintained by the Speaker's Office.
As I stated in my campaign thread I plan on introducing a number of various changes. To that end I'll be pushing to make sure 2 things happen.
1) I want to have the RA go over all existing laws to clean them up.
2) Have something drafted from the Constitutional Committee and put it up for...
I'll be using this thread to keep the RA updated on the current happenings. This will include updates on when votes are opened, when they have closed and their results, when members are admitted and when they are removed. Essentially this is to be a poor man's RSS feed for the RA.
Speaker's...
READ THIS FIRST: This is the official roster for the Regional Assembly of TNP. I ask that no one post in here unless they believe there is an issue in regards to the information about them.
Speaker: Gulliver
Designated Speaker Pro Tempore: Felesia
Total RA Members: 35
30% quorum: 11
Members of...
Roman has gotten the ball rolling and we all need to keep it rolling. To that end I propose a group effort to message new nations encouraging them to join the forum and government. The first thing that is needed is a telegram.
We'll also need volunteers to send out the message and some form of...
As has been discussed in Roman's topic found here TNP seems to be a rudderless ship right now. Every now and then people start paddling to try and make the ship go anywhere but they get tired out and the ship just drifts around in circles. There is no real direction right now and it is all being...
I propose that Section Two of Law 28 (The Security Council Regulation Act) be changed from:
To the following:
I propose this change is twofold. First, section one of this law requires the Vice Delegate to act pursuant to the section in question but this section doesn't actually require them...
I made a topic about this quite a while ago but never got any response from the court regarding it.
I'd like to request the AG file with the court a request for review as to what actions are considered a response by the Speaker as it pertains to Section One of Law 28 as quoted below:
I wish...
Under Law 29 of TNP Legal Code any registered citizens and/or governments residing in The North Pacific have the right to request information from the Government through the Delegate and the designated officers of the Executive.
As such I am requesting to know if the following accounts posted...
This is actually two requests but they are connected so I'll post them both in here.
Elections are just around the corner and things are not in order. The RA Roster was last updated on the 21st of August by the Speaker. However several nations listed on the roster have met criteria for removal...
As my application to the RA is nearing 14 days old without an acceptance or denial I'd like the court to explain the following:
What is considered "responding to an applicant? In my case, the speaker has posted in the designated thread that my application is currently under review, but is this...
I'll keep this simple, I plan to coup but not in a major way. I'll only be removing 2 parts of the current system and then creating one new part. Very little will change and everyone will be free to do everything they've been doing.
The first thing I'll remove is any mention or requirement of a...
We all know it is true, some of us are just unwilling to accept it. This constitution's time is upon us, it is no longer able to function in what TNP has become. This is why I urge this amendment to the constitution:
The first thing to do is to decide when we want to get rid of the...
