The Regional Government Act (2015) will come into force after being signed by Grand Chancellor Beatrice. The Act will fundamentally change the government of The Independent Order making it easier for people to become involved in government activities. The Act was supported by 71.4% of the voters in a recent referendum and should come into force in the coming weeks.
The major changes are as follows.
1. The Senate is abolished and replaced with a Regional Assembly which is not elected but is open to any member who has applied for membership.
2. Premier elections will now take place every 65 days not every 45.
3. Five related pieces of legislation have been repealed.
A brief period of adjustment will now take place before Regional Assembly applications are opened.
