Prime Minister's Question Act Repealed!​
A7ADF57C-9643-486C-932D8FC7CBBD13ED.jpg
Since our last update, Parliament has elected to repeal the Prime Ministers Questions Act; citing the limitations on the scope of the Prime Ministers accountability to Parliament, established by the aforementioned Act, unreasonable and contrary to the good of the region. The repeal of the Act has proven rather timely, as incoming Prime Minister Taco Cat promptly named a majority of Parliament as members of his cabinet; with several of those not named being brought into the government in deputy positions. Had this Act not been repealed by the previous government, the new Prime Minister may have been beyond reproach for the duration of the term - however, following the repeal, the Prime Minister will instead be subjected to official questioning at the whim of any Parliamentarian, as well as the people in general, at a time of the questioners choosing. Certainly, the scope of accountability of the Prime Minister has expanded beyond that afforded during the enacting of the Prime Ministers Questions Act.

New Parliament Brings New Hope!​

The newly elected Prime Minister notably re-established the Home Office as an individual ministry, which was previously a part of the Culture Ministry during the term of the previous Prime Minister, Klaus Mikaelson.


PARLIAMENT OPENED​
On the 16th of June, His Royal Majesty, King John II, delivered his Speech from the Throne in the House of Lords, on a bright morning at the Palace of Westminster. His Majesty detailed of what he would like to see happen in the newly elected Parliament, including amending the Elections Act, the rewriting of the Criminal Code, and the introduction of standards during elections through an Campaign Regulations Act.

His Majesty also outlined in his speech, that the Parliament should be a proactive one, instead of a reactive Parliament, in regards to legislation and such, which many citizens of the British Isles agree on and are hoping that this newly elected Parliament does such.

Since the Opening and the Speech from the Throne, the British Isles Parliament has passed an amendment to the Commons Procedures establishing an official quorum, Rules of the House of Lords, elected Northern England's William Mikaelson (SF)as Speaker for the HoC, and discussed matters such as Election Reform, Legal Reform, amending the Citizenship Act, and amending the reprehensible Criminal Code.
We, JOHN II, King of the British Isles by the Grace of God and Parliament bid all those reading this statement greetings!

We find ourselves in the most peculiar of situations. The dominating political party of the British Isles has, as could be expected, gained a majority within the House of Commons and comfortably so; its presence extending out from the Chamber and into the House of Lords. And yet, as mentioned, we are in the most peculiar of situations; both my government, and my official opposition in the House of Commons, are headed by the same individual. The minority government enjoyed by the Prime Minister is based on the back of the Parliamentary majority of a Political party that is not his own; no doubt this terms shall be fragile, yet we are filled with optimism for the potential of consensual governing originating from such fragility.

My government shall see the focus shift from simple activity to executive activity; current levels of activity shall of course be maintained or built upon, however the activity of the government in her official capacities shall be heavily increased - that work ethic being extended to our Parliament.

The legislative agenda for this term shall include an amendment to the Elections Act, the rewriting of the Criminal Code, and the introduction of standards during elections through an Campaign Regulations Act. Further; my government will oversee the reform of the WA Act, and will make every effort to ensure that the position of WA Delegate is in fact elected again in the near future; as it should have been, were such elections not neglected.

My government may be fragile; but it shall push to be a proactive one, rather than reactive. With the cooperation of you, the citizenry, we are confident that this term can be successful; setting a precedent for the next term and all that follow.




WORLD FAIR CANCELLED​

Cancelled.jpg

With a new Prime Minister comes a new Cabinet, and chosen to lead the Ministry of Culture, Media, and Sports was Zer Higness William. Upon taking office Zer Highness reviewed the plans for the First Annual World Fair. While looking at the plans he decided that the plans were insufficient and not good enough. So on the 19th of June the year 2014 the Culture Ministry stated that the world fair had been cancelled. The statement said
It is with the deepest regards that I must inform you that the World Fair has been cancelled. Upon arriving into this office, I found the project lacked substantial planning while also feeling what had been done placed too much burden on citizens and visiting dignitaries. We are currently planning an event to replace the World Fair. It is our hope that the new event will engage citizens in a fun way.
More announcements well follow in the coming weeks.

Thank You,

Culture Secretary, William
