On Illegal Organisations
The following organisations, whether this be their formal or informal name, are deemed illegal in the Aurentine Commonwealth:

• Aurentine-British Mafia
• Jewish Mafia
• Franco-Uzbek Mafia
• American Mafia
• Aurentine Secret Patriotic Movement
• Auca-cfg
• People's Armed Forces for the Liberation of Aurentina
• Sicilian Mafia

With the approval of a judge of the Supreme Court of Aurentina and the Chief Prosecutor of the Commonwealth Prosecution Service, the Minister of the Interior may outlaw an organisation it deems terrorist or part of an organised crime network.

RE: Internal Security Act (On the Aurentine National Gendarmerie)
The Aurentinian National Gendarmerie is renamed the Aurentine National Gendarmerie.
The Aurentine National Gendarmerie's powers are hereby consolidated to include that of any regional constabulary.
The words "the Gendarmerie and" are struck out from the State of Emergency Act.
The Gendarmerie is mandated to create an undercover force to be sporadically stationed onboard large Aurentine passenger airliners to prevent and deter aircraft hijackings.

RE: Corps Creation Charter (On the Corps of Military Police)
The Corps of Military Police, Naval Corps of Regulators and Air Force Constabulary, to be collectively known for the purpose of future legislation as the Aurentine Provost, are afforded the rights and responsibilities listed under the Policing and Law Enforcement Act, solely on and in the 2km radius around Defence Ministry property.

Codifying Informal Organisations
The Aurentine Financial Police is codified as an investigative agency under the Ministry of Finance tasked with investigating corporate financial crime. It does not hold any law enforcement powers, but may seek and enforce search warrants granted by the Commonwealth Prosecution Service.
The Capital Transportation Police is codified as the law enforcement agency of the Leishaagen Transportation Board/Capital Transportation Commission. Its manpower will be taken from Leishaagen's regional constabulary and will be under the jurisdiction of the latter. It has jurisdiction in and around the property of the Capital Transportation Commission.
The National Police Bureau is created as an agency to supervise and coordinate the activities of regional constabularies, and shall be headed by a Police Commissioner, to be appointed by the Minister of the Interior and who sits in office at the latter's pleasure.
The Arson Investigation Unit is created as an agency to investigate fires of criminal origin (arson). It has the power to arrest suspects.

RE: Ministry Foundation Act (On Constabularies)
Keeping in line with the will and spirit of the Ministry Foundation Act, the Ministry of Justice is relieved of its jurisdiction over the Constabularies, and the Interior Ministry is given it.

Heraklea- wrote:My honorable colleagues, though I firmly support most of the current legislation under consideration, I must now speak against one bill which we must reject lest we undo the very fabric of a democratic society. The ACORD Establishment Act, if passed, would do little short of allowing a legal framework for a military coup. The requirement for continuation votes is laughable and the actions of the military government will only be judged following the dissolution of the so-called “Emergency Government.” Any emergency powers act must hold as the preferred recipient of emergency powers the duly elected civilian leaders. I urge all of my fellow senators to vote against this abomination against democratic principals.

It is cultural imperialism. The first and main aim of it is to promote and french culture and language as the primary world language.

Alright, this hyperbole is now verging on the excessive.

The primary mission of the organization is the promotion of the French language as an international language, it's first aim is "Promoting French language and cultural and linguistic diversity."

It want's it's members to make french their main international language. It is culturally imperialistic, it want's it's members to speak and like french culture.

That is a significant logical leap to go from "promoting the French language" to "making French the main international language", Senator.

Further there is nothing in the organizations mission statement of promoting French (i.e. from the French Republic) culture, rather La Francophonie promotes the francophone culture within its member states... which incidentally are all francophone nations.
