A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.


Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#10

Proposed by: Kowashi

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #10: Nuclear Arms Possession Act (Category: International Security; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: Having Nuclear Weaponry will instead provoke more violence between WA nations and nations outside of WA. Only nations part of the WA that have been chosen to have Nuclear Weaponry should be entitled to Nuclear Weaponry. Having Nuclear Weaponry of small, tiny and unable nations which join WA is a mistake. This will only cause more disputes and make war cause more harm.

Asks for Nuclear Weaponry to only be in the hands of a chosen few and those chosen few to protect other nations in WA.

Demands unselected nations to start dismantling their Nuclear Arms as soon as possible.

Legislating in a repeal. Damned stupid plan. No repeals clause.

I like this plan. As one of the more powerful nations in the WA, I am sure that we will be selected to have nuclear weapons. Then, we can intimidate the balls off everyone else! Best plan ever! [ /sarcasm ]

I don't think so. It never creates an army or a police force, it just gives nukes only to selected nations.

Accurate Weapons Clause

A resolution to slash worldwide military spending.


Category: Global Disarmament

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: JOWOWWO

Description: Description: A proposal decrease the amount of unneeded mortalities related to inaccurate weaponry.

Recognizing that, most inaccurate weaponry is outdated, and on the way to becoming extinct in the battlefield.

However, this proposal should make this process of elimination faster, but also aims to improve standards, especially on explosive launchers, which are known worldwide for being imprecise, and causing high casualties among comrades and enemies.

Creating guidelines that:
-Causes any weapon not accurate at 100+ meters should be removed from militaries within the World Assembly following the passage of this proposal;

-Cuts spending on explosive weapons that are not as accurate, wether or not they meet the previously mentioned criteria.

Hereby passes the Accurate Weapons Clause.

What is "accurate"? A 2cm shot group at 300 meters? +/- 1000 meters at 10000 km? Orbital strikes that land within a continent? Vague is not good. Vague is especially not good when you glorify this by labelling it significant.

Embassy Concordia

A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.


Category: International Security

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Milestek

Description: For us to feel more secure in other countries. We must have our own soldiers stationed at our embassies. If one of our embassies were attacked, we will be ready. However this attack will not be a deceleration of war from either side. That will be decided by the countries themselves.

I am not here to say whether or not countries should declare war, we are there to represent our country. If we feel unsafe we can leave or we can beef up security. We should be allowed to do just that.

Now the country that your embassy is in has a say in this also. If they feel unsafe by the embassy security, they may ask that country to pullout some of the security or they may ask them to leave.

The security must not attack anyone outside the perimeter of the embassy. Same goes to people on the outside, anyone outside the perimeter can not attack security or embassy staff inside the embassy perimeter. If anyone caught within the perimeter, without permission, may be arrested or killed (*LAST RESORT*) by security.

This also applies to outside the embassy. There will be a security convoy that goes along with the ambassador and staff no matter where they are in that country. If anyone of the citizens move directly toward the security, ambassador or staff, those citizens can and will be treated as a threat and will be arrested.

If anyone is arrested inside the embassy will be charged in the courts of the embassy's country. However this can be challenged by the citizen's country. They will have a fair trial. No matter the country's laws that go against it. If they are charged they will be sent to wherever the embassy's country sees fit. The same goes to security forces.

If any security force member is killed or injured, the embassy will be compensated.

If you support this proposal, you support your nation's security and safety.

Kinda bloggy, and not from WA perspective

Repeal "The Rule of Law"

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.


Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#374

Proposed by: Ytol

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #374: The Rule of Law (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Strong) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: Dear the Nation's and associate's of the World Assembly

I must repel The Rule of Law with my argument of that my nation is still young in this world in fact a week today, we are still learning from our mistakes.

I fail to see why Ytol has been put into the spotlight of the WA with us being forced to improve human rights, this is the one thing we have struggled to supply to our people but what we have accomplished is being the 31,088th highest welfare in the world and 1,381st in the North Pacific Region; We also have the 41,961st most effective Health care in the world and 1,748th in the North Pacfic region.

We the Ytoloian Government spend 25% of our economy into our people. With those who argue that more is needed how can a nation which just surpassed 1 trillion Lances be able to fund our people without sacrifices.

Our Civil Rights are classed as very good which something very hard for our Goverment to accomplish in which we sacrificed our economy to go from Thriving to Average and over time we made it back.

Sincerely Ytol's Ruler: JG JG

Mental Health Standards

A resolution to modify universal standards of healthcare.


Category: Health

Area of Effect: Healthcare

Proposed by: Gagala

Description:

Recognizing that Mental Health Standards need tp be heightened,as many people suffer from the issues every day,but nothing is done.

Angered by the failure to promote mental health clinics in many nations and regions.

Hoping that times are changing and nations will begin to fully realise the issue.

Thank you.

Authored by The Republic of Gagala

Branding, bumpersticker, does nothing.

Electric Vehicles

A resolution to increase the quality of the world's environment, at the expense of industry.


Category: Environmental

Industry Affected: Automotive

Proposed by: High Olympus

Description: The Members of the World Assembly:

Recognising that fossil fuelled vehicles release nitrogen oxide into the atmosphere which will help destroy the environment;

Recognising that this will effect human health and un-natural phenomenons such as acid rain and smog will start to occur more often worldwide;

Resolved that decreasing the amount of fossil fuelled vehicles and replacing them with electric vehicles will help slow down climate change and will help sub stain our environment;

The General Assembly herby enacts the following:

Encourages all fellow nation's governments to fund the production of electric vehicles;

2. Encourages all fellow nations's car dealerships to increase the number of electric cars they produce and sell;

3. Encourages all fellow nation's governments to provide a grant to people who buy electrical vehicles;

4. Declares that all people who own fossil fuelled vehicles may take their vehicle to a mechanic to perform an electric conversation. Mechanics will be paid extra money to perform this;

5. Declares that all people who drive an electric vehicle may drive in bus lanes until further notice;

6. Declares the all fellow nation's governments must install induction charging in all main roads so electric vehicles are charged while they drive.

7. Encourages all fellow nations with a high proportion of non-renewable power generation should look to alternative sources including hydro, wind and solar generation so electrical vehicles are powered by renewable energy;

A whole gaggle of bumperstickers thrown together.

A resolution to slash worldwide military spending.


Category: Global Disarmament

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: The Southern United States Republic

Description: Proposal: I Propose, on behalf of my nation and region, that every nation should rid themselves of nuclear weapons.

- The Proud Republic of Bastkian

Approvals: 4 (Europe and Oceania, The Anarchic fascist republic of an isle, New York Giants, Floratrini)
Status: Lacking Support (requires 118 more approvals)
Voting Ends: in 2 days 15 hours

Illegal: Branding, no real operative clause, and attempted duplication of existing legislation.

Renewable Energy
A resolution to increase the quality of the world's environment, at the expense of industry.

Category: Environmental
Industry Affected: All Businesses
Proposed by: Romerea

Description: The World Assembly,

Acknowledging that the burning of fossil fuels to generate energy is a problem because it releases greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere;

Realising that the release of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere is harmful to humans, animals, the environment and will also cause acid rain and an increased rate of global warming;

Realising that the discontinuation of burning fossil fuels for energy and instead using renewable forms of energy will be beneficial to animals, people and the environment;

The General Assembly hereby:

1. Requires all member nations to discontinue use of fossil fuels to generate energy;

2. Requires all member nations to cease extraction of fossil fuels;

3. Requires all member nations to discontinue exporting and/or importing fossil fuels;

4. Encourages all member nations to increase the amount of solar energy plants they use to generate electricity for the nation;

5. Encourages all member nations to increase the amount of wind farms they use to generate electricity for the nation;

6. Encourages all member nations to increase the amount of hydropower plants they use to generate electricity for the nation;

7. Encourages all member nations to increase the amount of biomass plants they use to generate electricity for the nation;

8. Encourages all member nations to increase the amount of geothermal power plants they use to generate electricity for the nation;

9. Encourages all member nations to research better ways of harnessing renewable energy which will be beneficial for the environment;

Approvals: 3 (Europe and Oceania, Scieca Yeodeol, The Anarchic fascist republic of an isle)
Status: Lacking Support (requires 119 more approvals)
Voting Ends: in 2 days 15 hours

As I said when this was submitted before, contradicts GAR #301 'Ban on Leaded Fuel' because the latter allows member nations to take a few years about the phase-out whereas this proposal would -- under WA rules -- take effect immediately.

To improve healthcare

Category: Health
Area of Effect: Healthcare
Proposed by: HAVE FAITH IN ME

Description: To improve the worlds is healthcare by:
1. Improving the training of healthcare staff

3. Having a minimum number of healthcare facilities in a nation
4. Having free healthcare for the poor, critically ill and children under 9

Approvals: 0
Status: Lacking Support (requires 122 more approvals)
Voting Ends: in 3 days 3 hours

Simplistic, and probably duplication.

If it did anything, then yeah. It reads as though preamble clauses collided with active clause effects, but it just says "this would improve healthcare", not "does this to improve healthcare"

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #375: Crime and Punishment (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: This is unjust. I can let the assembly just run into my country and rewrite my constitution whenever they want! The people don't want rights or freedom or media. They want a country that is willing to develop and that has a military and police force willing to protect them!!! The glorious people of Arlankia will take up arms against the so-called "assembly" If any further action is taken to weaken Arlankia.

Branding, and third one in the queue on the same topic by the same person.

Is it, though?

"7. FORBIDS compulsory, state-sponsored religion as a means of suppressing non-believing individuals"

It basically just reinforces CoCR:
Charter of Civil Rights wrote:c ) All inhabitants of member states have the right not to be and indeed must not be discriminated against on grounds including sex, race, ethnicity, nationality, skin color, language, economic or cultural background, physical or mental disability or condition, religion or belief system, sexual orientation or sexual identity, or any other arbitrarily assigned and reductive categorisation which may be used for the purposes of discrimination, except for compelling practical purposes, such as hiring only female staff to work with battered women who have sought refuge from their abusers.

And as people keep telling me, you're allowed to expand on the specific parts of the CoCR.

As for the "OPPOSES" clause at the end, I read that as a sort of "preamble after the fact" that some resolutions have tagged at the end.

While you focus on the "secular" word, I focus on "democracy"., in which yes it is an ideological ban, mandating everybody be a US style democracy.

Repeal "Crime and Punishment"
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.

Category: Repeal
Resolution: GA#375
Proposed by: The Grand Commonwealth

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #375: Crime and Punishment (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: Acknowledging that Resolution 375 is the type of resolution that is fostered from good intentions and with the spirit of functional ethicality in mind,

Recognizing that the World Assembly has attempted to deal with the issue of Capital Punishment for some time and that it has previously repealed resolutions for exploitable or otherwise insufficient language,

Believing that the contention to impose minimal restrictions is insufficient to secure the humane treatment of capital punishment,

Encouraging the great nations of the World Assembly to reconsider the language of the following clauses in the aforementioned Resolution:

1. As a subjective clause this declaration enables governments to describe offenses as grave and serious without objective measure, thereby allowing them to abuse capital punishment;
2. As a subjective clause this clause does not provide an objective scale for measure or designate a neutral body for which to determine appropriate sentencing for criminal endeavors and thus lacks any legal meaning;
3. As a reassertion of a previous resolution against torture this clause is unnecessary;
4. This clause inaccurately underestimates the potential for non-democratic, political or cultural power of criminals which is in essence nonviolent;
6. This clause does not attempt to define due process or account for the varying legal systems of the many nations of this Assembly;
9. This clause requires member nations to take "every possible measure" in preventing the execution of innocent individuals, however, requiring simply that member nations endeavour to prevent innocent deaths by execution and also requiring their submission to an international, neutral body of period review of such cases would be less cumbersome and restrictive without being exploitative,

Recognizing that a new resolution needs to outline and define that capital punishment be sanctionable only when the individual charged is deemed by the World Assembly--or a subcommittee devoted to such considerations--to be

1. by their continued existence a severe and otherwise unconscionable detriment to the safety or well-being of persons, peoples, or economies;
2. that through political or cultural power and influence the continued existence of these individuals despite incarceration of the highest degree presents an aberrant and unmitigated risk to such issues of civil freedoms of the populace;
3. that the continued existence of these individuals would result in the supersedence of the democratically passed resolutions of this Assembly and its member nations or otherwise threaten the democratic process of this assembly.

Approvals: 8 (Fiscis, Drittes Deutsches Reich, Greudan, Olscain, Gagala, The rouge Christmas state, Alleines Nationaliste, The Holy Empire of San Marino)

Status: Lacking Support (requires 114 more approvals)

Voting Ends: in 3 days 1 hour

Sorry, I'm still trying to figure out what would be more unpopular: a resolution to ban the death penalty, or a resolution to require all nations to get the WA's permission before executing anyone?

Category: Repeal
Resolution: GA#375
Proposed by: United Men of the World

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #375: Crime and Punishment (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: Hello there,
I am Dictator Ben of The Dictatorship of United Men of the World. My country has a problem with this law because of number three. We believe that our country shall be allowed to torture anyone we suspect of trying to ruin our nation. We would not torture them enough to kill them, but enough to get answers out of them. This is necessary when 90% of the countries in the world don't believe in this, and you are a dictatorship nation. Therefore, we believe that we should be able to torture our suspects for national security.

Thank you,

Just Say No!

A resolution to ban, legalize, or encourage recreational drugs.

Category: Recreational Drug Use

Decision: Promote

Proposed by: XXSirPandaXx

Description: "Just Say No!" Enactment educates children on the bad effects of drug usage, and also targets alcohol abuse as well.

One of our main goals, and hopefully the effect of this program as well, is to make a healthier world for the new generation of people.

We need all the support we can get to help this proposal get through and hopefully you can make the "Just Say No!" Campaign can make the world a better place!


Bloggy, and just plain stupid. Also a 'Decision' failure, as I'm pretty certain that while the 'Just Say No' campaign has ended up promoting drug usage, that wasn't the intention.
