PRECISELY why this piece of legislation is illegal. It doesn't legislate ANYTHING. All it does is give nations the OPTION to sit on an OPTIONAL committee, and borrow money from the WA, if they WANT TO.
GHR has been submitted on this one on several violations. We can only hope the Secretariat get around to looking at it before this gets to vote.
ENCOURAGES clauses are considered non-optional in the sense that a nation is required to be encouraged. This proposal contains one of them, and therefore does not fall afoul of the optionality rule.
