It is time to decide what we want to do with the Senate.
This poll is to choose between three extremely different types of organization:
1. A neutral organization (DAVOUT proposal)
Senate Rules of Procedures
In application of the Constitution (Article II, §11), the Senate organizes its works according to the following Rules of Procedure.
1. The Senate Archives Office (SAF) keeps records of all laws, motions, resolutions, and otherwise that are passed, amended, or removed, as stated in the Constitution (Article II §12), as well as reports, minutes, treaties, and documents of any kind, created by the Senate. The Keeper of the SAF organize the filing in multiple criteria, mainly chronological, nature, subjects, and any other he finds appropriate.
2. The Secretary of the Senate (SecoS) maintains the Agenda of what is currently in progress and what is to be done but not yet started.
3. The Senate Commission of Laws (SenCL), in view of ensuring a high quality of all legal writings, offers to all Senators, individually or in commissions, to review the text of any poll, laws, orders, etc, they intend to publish; once the review is passed, the text will bear the stamp Reviewed by The Senate Commission of Laws. A text not reviewed is normally published, but do not bear the stamp.
4.Senate Committees controls the Government action; in order to reduce duplication of efforts its members accept that all threads they would have previously opened under their name be discussed by the Committees, and, if agreed by the members, be published under the heading of the related Committee, with them as Author. The following committees will be created as and when two Senators will decide so, one of them filling the Secretary function:
- Domestic Affairs (ComDAf)
- Military Affairs (CoMil)
- Foreign Affairs (ComFA)
- Economy and Finance (ComEF)
- Science (ComSCI)
5 All Senator can become a member of one or several committees, permanently or temporarily; as a consequence, the internal polls that the committees could decide to make will not refer to any quorum, but only to voters.
6. Each Committee nominates a Secretary to keep track of the members and maintain a list of current members.
7. Internal polls in committees are not automatically counted; each Senator posts his vote which is public.
8. The rules of procedures describing how each Committee intends to organize its works will be annexed to and part of the present Senate Rules of Procedures.
9. The incumbents of the posts opened in §1 and 2 are nominated then approved in a poll. These functions have no effects on the Senators rights.
2. A political organization (Thud proposal)
1. Supreme Bigwig(aka SAF, any name will do) :
keeps records of all laws, motions, resolutions, and otherwise that are passed, amended, or removed, as stated in the Constitution (Article II §12), as well as reports, minutes, treaties, and documents of any kind, created by the Senate. The Keeper of the SAF organize the filing in multiple criteria, mainly chronological, nature, subjects, and any other he finds appropriate.
2. Senate Majority\Minority Leaders:
A referendum will be taken to determine the party or bloc of voters that is most popular. i.e. people will say the Hawks have more power than the DIA or independents. The Hawk representative or leader will become the Senate Majority Leader, and the DIA and independents will share a Minority Leader. Each Leader would draft Agendas. Differing Agendas would lead to real purpose to opposition, and would clearly expose issues to the public eye.
3. Senate Oversight Committee:
A comination of ComDAf, ComFA, ComEF, and retaining those organizations as subcommittees. This is to simplify the process: any thread regarding domestic or nonmilitary foreign affairs will be submitted to the SOC.
5. The Senate Commission of Military Affairs (CoMil)
6. Commision on Science, Technology, and Development: Examines the method the President and Ministers take in futuring progresive growth and choosing techs.
All commisions will serve pretty much the same purpose and work pretty much the same way as Davout suggests.
3. A total absence of organization (GodKing proposal)
We don't need no stinkin organization. Just yell and say what ya want to say, when ya want to say it, and if ya don't like what ya hear, throw some o' those rotton bananas at whomever said it.
Quorum is 14
Neutral organization : approves the organization described under §1
Political organization : approves the organization described under §2
Absence of organization : approves the absence illustrated under §3
Abstain is counted in quorum and has no effect on the vote
This poll lasts for 3 days.
