Influence changes have kicked in, time to do some drafting methinks.
I think we should increase the minimum endorsement requirement. Ideally we need to consider an endo cap law, I would prefer a floating endorsement cap, because a fixed one isn't how we do things.
We are still required to regulate influence growth though, so I think something that prevents nations from holding a higher endorsement count than the nation who is fourth in the line of succession beyond the Vice Delegates.
I want to know what your general thoughts are about how we should implement these changes as well as specific drafts. I welcome the Attorney Generals input on this matter.
Security Council Legal Code:1. Any laws regulating the activities of the Security Council must be listed in this chapter.
2. In this chapter, "Council" means the Security Council.
3. In this Chapter, the serving Delegate means the legal Delegate or, in the absence of a legal Delegate, the acting Delegate.
Section 5.1: Requirements
4. The influence requirement will consist of a TNP influence score (Soft Power Disbursement Rating) greater than or equal to 300, though when a nation's influence score within TNP is unknown as the displayed score may include significant influence within other regions, a TNP influence rank greater than or equal to Vassal may be substituted.
This needs to be changed. I'm not sure what to, though.
5. The minimum endorsement count is defined as 200 endorsements, or fifty per cent of the serving Delegate's endorsement count, whichever is least.
6. The maximum endorsement count is defined as 40 fewer endorsements than the serving Delegate's endorsement count, or eighty-five percent of said count, whichever is greatest.
7. Where the computation results in fractions, the count shall be rounded down.
8. The serving Delegate is exempt from endorsement requirements.
Section 5.2: Admission
9. Any Regional Assembly member satisfying the influence requirement and endorsement count requirement may apply to join the Security Council.
10. An application which does not meet the appropriate requirements or ceases to meet them must be rejected.
Article 3. The Delegate and Vice Delegate
1. The Delegate will be the head of state and government of The North Pacific and hold the in-game position of delegate.
2. The Delegate may eject and ban nations from the region as permitted by law, and will eject or ban nations from the region when required by law.
3. The Delegate may negotiate treaties with foreign powers. No treaty will come into effect unless approved by a two-thirds majority vote of the Regional Assembly.
4. The Delegate may veto a proposal of the Regional Assembly to enact, amend or repeal a law within one week of its passage. The Regional Assembly may override such a veto by a two-thirds majority vote.
5. The Delegate may appoint executive officers to assist them and may dismiss these officers freely. Executive offices may be regulated by law.
6. The Vice Delegate will chair the Security Council and enforce the continued eligibility of its members as determined by law.
7. The Vice Delegate will hold the second most endorsements in the region.
8. The Delegate may eject or ban any nation which exceeds the Vice Delegate’s endorsement count.
Sections 8-9 will be renumbered 9-10 accordingly.
