I have submitted my very first issue
It pertains to the creation of of an organization called the World Intelligence Agency (WIA)
I am curious of what everyone would think of this proposal.

Firstly, a resolution has to be more than a committee. The rule of thumb is if you removed everything about the committee from a resolution, the proposal should still do something.
Depending on how you interpret your committees duties, it may violate the "no WA army" rule. The WA can not have its own military branch or directly coordinate the military of member nations.
I'm pretty sure there's a rule against determining how committees are staffed, but I can't check that right now.
You should be aware that not all members are allies and an intelligence sharing agency, especially one with mandatory membership, can media nation's ability to protect themselves from threats also in the WA.
As stated, before you submit a proposal, you should post it on the forum for everyone to review. That will help hammer out a lot of issues.
But before even authorizing. Authoring a proposal, you should also consider reading the rules and permanent passed resolutions (available at the top of the forum) and participate in debates for other proposals to learn how they develop and the flow of the assembly.

Information ActCreating an additional intelligence committee might not qualify as 'Significant' in strength
A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.
Category: International Security
Strength: Significant
Proposed by: The Austria-Hungary"We as concerned leaders" = not quite from the viewpoint of the WA (or its member nations collectively) as required?
Description: Recognizing that there are many security
threats to all of the nations and that we as concerned
leaders ought to stop these threats before they become
actions and it is too late to do anything about them.
Noting that there are various agencies that monitorThe WA is not a 'nation'. And if they mean "the security of all member nations", instead, then what about cases where one member nation is itself a a threat to another member nation?
this activity and they are often not in concert to deal
with these threats.
Acknowledging that many of these agencies do
not know what the other agencies have discovered
and therefore cannot act in a way that would mobilize
a proper international response.
Therefore creates the World Intelligence Agency (WIA)
The Duties of the World Intelligence Agency (WIA)
are as follows
*Collect, analyze, evaluate, and disseminate foreign intelligence to assist The World Assembly in making decisions relating to national security.
* To work with Intelligence agencies on a nationalIf that "combat" would go beyond information-gathering and into actual action, a point about which the proposal's wording is unclear, then this would break the 'No WA Police or Military' rule.

multi national scale.

agencies and the proper authorities, such as police,
paramilitary, and military forces and to key government
officials.
* This warrants the creation of a council of Advisers
and other personnel, whose roles will be discussed at the
first meeting of the council, which will be selected as soon as
possible
Thus creates the World Intelligence Agency (WIA)And does nothing but create the committee, which is enough in itself to make the proposal illegal regardless of any of the other possible arguments that I mentioned.
