Non-WA against so don't count it obviously. Repealing this commend without any kind of plan for a replacement condemnation is just letting certain regions attack a TNPer for very little reason for ourselves. And I find the arguments around Lazarus, made by the authors who previously exploited...
Against this, it's being done as an attack on the current delegate, in a way that looks increasingly distasteful given the pressures the government and region are currently experiencing.
Can the government provide a short statement, either in this topic or subforum or to the Regional Assembly, on why we're closing embassies with The Pacific? Thanks in advance.
I would object to a vote being scheduled at this time, given how it's barely 8 hours since the discussion started, though I'm not against the nomination - I'm keeping an open mind.
I know NES to be a competent and able administrator and would likely be no worse than any current commissioner -...
I can only speak to what I saw as Delegate and a government minister but the assertion that Nimarya was not opposed by the old guard is not one that matches up with my recollections. I won't say more because it was a relatively long time ago now and I'd much rather the NPA focus on the future...
I think I'd be more comfortable with longer terms than shorter ones, but in general I'm in favour of this proposal I think and will probably support it (or at least, not vote against) at vote if it isn't changed to match my preferences.
My only worry with this bill is that making the official responsible for potentially prosecuting the delegate beholden to the delegate for appointment and re-appointment you run the risk of that official holding off on doing so so they don't risk not being re-appointed. You've tried to reduce...

Former multi-term Speaker here. I was never hamstrung by the two legislative vote limit and it was never a problem. Spreading out votes across a longer period of time encourages good legislative practice anyway.
Against this, I don't think there's a clear benefit to changing how things work right now and I'd rather not overburden the Speakers Office with having to track and count a great many legislative votes at any one time.
As someone who heavily pushed for declassification at various times, it's clear that that was a mistake and rather than improving transparency, it's just become a bureaucratic millstone around the neck of the executive. Full support.
How dare you come up with a reasonable solution to an issue someone has pointed out and also depriving me of a frankly quite boring talking point given that I've said it approximately 4,000 times over the years.
Full support. And exile. Twice.
As a note for those who aren't on the discord where this was already discussed - the Three Times You're Out Amendment did not need the delegate's signature, nor was the delegate able to Veto it, as it was a constitutional amendment.
Non-WA Against
it's a shame to see so many people supporting a commendation of someone who invaded one of our treatied allies and has spent their entire career engaging in negative, malevolent actions on NS.
I'm not sure it's so much me feeling tense as it is me seeing how tense quite a few people's interactions seem to have gotten. But maybe I'm reading too much into things.
