NSG Senate Chamber [NSG Senate] - Version 3

[New Zepuha]

So I still have two bills that I have submitted not in the queue.

[New Bierstaat]

So I still have two bills that I have submitted not in the queue.

I cannot get to the PpT account to add them to the queue.

[Geilinor]

So I still have two bills that I have submitted not in the queue.

I cannot get to the PpT account to add them to the queue.

We might have to create a new chamber if we can't get the account's password.

[Lamaredia]

I cannot get to the PpT account to add them to the queue.

We might have to create a new chamber if we can't get the account's password.

And as I suggested before, an entirely new PpT account.

[Macedonian Grand Empire]

We might have to create a new chamber if we can't get the account's password.

And as I suggested before, an entirely new PpT account.

Even if we make one we can not use this chamber due to the fact that he can not take his place and edit what is here. Not to mention it can not use the name.

[Geilinor]

And as I suggested before, an entirely new PpT account.

Even if we make one we can not use this chamber due to the fact that he can not take his place and edit what is here. Not to mention it can not use the name.

This^. We won't be able to update the queue. We'd need both a new chamber and a new PpT account.

[New Bierstaat]

Even if we make one we can not use this chamber due to the fact that he can not take his place and edit what is here. Not to mention it can not use the name.

This^. We won't be able to update the queue. We'd need both a new chamber and a new PpT account.

Yeah. What should we call the PpT account this time? President Pro-Tempore of the Senate?

[Lamaredia]

And as I suggested before, an entirely new PpT account.

Even if we make one we can not use this chamber due to the fact that he can not take his place and edit what is here. Not to mention it can not use the name.

Which is why I said "And", meaning that I included both the new account and a new chamber.

[Lamaredia]

This^. We won't be able to update the queue. We'd need both a new chamber and a new PpT account.

Yeah. What should we call the PpT account this time? President Pro-Tempore of the Senate?

That'll be fine. Post the link to the new chamber in the lobby when you're done, I'll go ask the moderators to archive this.

That'll be fine. Post the link to the new chamber in the lobby when you're done, I'll go ask the moderators to archive this.

Don't the Admins need to start the new chamber?

[Lamaredia]

That'll be fine. Post the link to the new chamber in the lobby when you're done, I'll go ask the moderators to archive this.

Don't the Admins need to start the new chamber?

That might be so. They have to get started on it. I'm requesting for this one to be archived, because we can't do anything about it atm.

[Maklohi Vai]

That'll be fine. Post the link to the new chamber in the lobby when you're done, I'll go ask the moderators to archive this.

Don't the Admins need to start the new chamber?

Yes, we would.

NSG SENATE CHAT ROOM: [url]http://webchat.esper.net/?nick=&channels=NSG_Senate[/url][/align]

[b]Welcome to the glorious NationStates General Senate Chamber for the great nation of Aurentina.[/b]

This chamber is where all voting and official procedure will occur for the NSG Senate. You must be an NSG Senator to post.

DISCLAIMER: The following is a preliminary founding document of the NSG Senate. All legislation, and especially the NSG Constitution, including intent or implied meaning, comes before this document.

[quote][b][u]PLEASE READ ALL OF THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE POSTING. ALSO, THESE RULES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE VIA PASSED LEGISLATION.[/u][/b]

[u]The Life of an NSG Bill[/u]

1. If there is a piece of legislation that has been submitted to me via telegram that has not yet come up for a vote, and we are not currently doing anything in the chamber, then I (and only I) will, as administrator, bring it up. I will post the text of the legislation in this thread in a quote box, and then declare that debate may begin.

2. After debate has begun, it is a free-for-all posting for or against the legislation. Make your arguments however you want to.

3. After some people feel that debate has gone on long enough, someone can do this:

"I move to close debate on this piece of legislation."

4. That motion then needs to be seconded, thirded, fourthed, and fifthed. Once that has happened, the vote will begin.

([i]keep in mind that you can "move" to do other things as well. These also need to be fifthed. For example, you could "move to send the current piece of legislation back to the drafting board."[/i])

5. Once the vote has begun (which doesn't require me, it just requires the fifth) then people can either vote "Yea" or "Nay."

6. The vote will be closed automatically [strike]twenty-four[/strike] forty-eight hours (as of passage of legislation #1) after the "debate-closing motion" had been "fifthed." This deadline can be extended by use of a motion such as "I move to extend voting for another six hours..."

7. The vote will be tallied by me or another administrator, and action will be taken accordingly. A record of all passed legislation will be kept in this OP.

8. After a piece of legislation has been dealt with, it is just a matter of waiting until the next one gets put up by me or another administrator. If there are no new pieces of legislation, the Senate chamber will lie temporarily dormant.[/quote]

Did you ask for archival already?

I did, and now when I think about it I might have been a bit hasty. It's late here, and I'm not thinking clearly. I can remove the request if you so should like.

[New Bierstaat]

In the meantime, debate will commence on Domestic Development until the new Chamber is started.

Done.

[The Nihilistic view]

I motion for the Revenue Collection and Defence of Aurentine Citizenship Act to be moved to the Business & Finance section as it deals with taxation which is a treasury responsibility. It has nothing what so ever to do with Transportation, Agriculture, Education, Research, Telecommunications or Culture.

[Divitaen]

I motion for the Revenue Collection and Defence of Aurentine Citizenship Act to be moved to the Business & Finance section as it deals with taxation which is a treasury responsibility.

[Ainin]

Does legislative queuejumping even exist anymore?

[East Ormania]

I motion for the Revenue Collection and Defence of Aurentine Citizenship Act to be moved to the Business & Finance section as it deals with taxation which is a treasury responsibility. It has nothing what so ever to do with Transportation, Agriculture, Education, Research, Telecommunications or Culture.

I fifth this motion if it changes anything.

[HumanSanity]

Does legislative queuejumping even exist anymore?

This is different than legislative queuejumping but that does exist. This is moving SIMBEDS category which requires being seventhed.
