Mr Speaker,

Govindia has asked me to pass on his apologies, he is currently quite unwell and is not sure when he will be able to return. I tell you this as he does not want his RA membership to be removed due to forum inactivity.
 
The WA voting act has passed but three nations were unaccounted for: Gladio, Tim and FALCONKATS; they should be listed under not voting. Also the not voting total is written as 16 but lists 17, so if you add those three it comes to 20.

Also could Sovreignry now be 'confirmed activity' in the RA member list?

Thanks!

I'll go fix the problems with the WA voting act.

As for confirmed activity, that field of the list is updated and maintained by scripts which have now decided to blow their top and refuse to do their job so for the time being it's not being maintained.

As Kiwi as resigned as Deputy Speaker, I have taken the chair as Speaker Pro Tempore being the most senior member of the Regional Asse,bly.

Tyler Kazakov has been removed from the Regional Assembly as his TNP nation of record has left TNP.
 
Following my election as Speaker, I have taken the required oath of office, and Grosse is hereby relieved as Speaker Pro Tempore.

Over the next couple of days I will be getting to grips with what needs to come before the Regional Assembly, and dealing with any backlog of applications. i will also be auditing the RA membership to make sure all details are correct etc.
 
OK here is how votes are going to work in my term:

1. The speaker will abstain on all votes.
2. You can debate in the debating thread. Voting threads are for votes only.
3. If you feel the pressing need to explain your vote, do it in the debate thread.
4. Voting may be "aye" "nay" or "present", in plain black text.
5. Anything else in the voting thread will be edited away, especially if I think it is an attempt to influence the voting of others.
6. If you take the piss by ignoring the above, your vote will not be counted.

Thats it for now. See you in court.
 
As of the date and moment of this post, the channel #tnp on irc is the official channel of the office of Speaker of The North Pacific. All speaker announcements will be made in that channel.
 
Work commitments mean that my access to TNP will be patchy for a few days. Next week my father's funeral takes place on Friday 18th, which means that I will be somewhat distracted most of the week.
