"Duplicates GAR#51 and violates the rule on committees that makes sure nations cannot send staff to chair committees, not collectively chair them as a national whole. It is, I'm afraid, illegal."

Upon reviewing this outstanding piece of legislation, it comes to protect the individual such as citizens not the nation which is what my organization will bring aid to. My proposal simply bring economic safe haven to nations.

Who could give me the final answer as to if it is legal or illegal to have such resolution presented to the floor of the General Assembly of the World Assembly?

OOC: ask a moderator for a legality check, but this isn't legal. You'd be wasting your time.

OOC: The sponsoring nation's name is automatically added by the game's coding and should not be mentioned in the text, and you are only allowed one co-author or 'co-sponsor'. It is customary, although perhaps not an enforced rule, that any "Co-Authored by" note be placed at the end of the proposal.

One, you should edit the draft at the top of the page, to keep that current. Two, you still haven't solved the following illegalities:

-- This duplicates GAR#51
-- This violates the "just a committee" rule (it doesn't make nations do anything legislatively)
-- You still have two co-authors listed

Your heart is in the right place, but you really should review the proposal rules at the top of the forum.

[Kilimantonian]

Just a question: will the 'IDF' provide 'relief packages' to nations that are the victims of hostile acts (i.e. raiding)? Such acts would certainly constitute "a sudden event... that causes great damage or loss of life."
Also, should be "great damage and/or loss of life."

Yes, the IDF brings aid to regions of which have been raided.

Thank you for your feedback, the resolution is being redrafted.

OOC: any reference to that would make this illegal for Metagaming.

I am using the objection to the first part that G.A.R.51 simply provides Humanitarian Support and not economic haven to nations. We provide support to nations whom suffer from disaster, with the resolution we have drafted, we do not provide humanitarian support -- we provide economic haben.

To the second part I didn't quite understand what you mean.

To the 3rd part, I don't believe two Co-Sponsors are ruled against in the rules for a resolution. If they are could do me a favor and link me to the area of which restricts me from adding a second Co-Sponsor so I may immediately fix this.

So defining disaster as raiding should not be included in the draft for the resolution?

[Partola]

Bump

Any other opinion on legality or others besides co-sponsors and GRA51?

[Blaccakre]

Why did you shout "THE INTERNATIONAL DISASTER FUND" in the thread title? Are you RPing an ambassador with volume control problems?

Okay, so based on your reply, you're saying that, when disaster occurs, in addition to already sending humanitarian supplies, including food, clothing, medical supplies, building supplies, etc., we should also send money? To achieve what purpose? We're already supporting their economy in times of need by supplying them much-needed tangible goods, what would they do with monetary aid as well? Even if the mods rule this legal, you're going to have to do a great deal of convincing that we should send money anytime a disaster hits.

To the second part I didn't quite understand what you mean.

Proposal rules (pay attention to the stuff on committees): viewtopic.php?f=9&t=159348

There are other rulings too, that state that a nation must do something, anything, other than just interact with a committee. For example, a clause that "ENCOURAGES (or URGES or IMPLORES or MANDATES or whatever) member nations to do X, Y and Z" would avoid the committee-only illegality.

To the 3rd part, I don't believe two Co-Sponsors are ruled against in the rules for a resolution. If they are could do me a favor and link me to the area of which restricts me from adding a second Co-Sponsor so I may immediately fix this.

[Povinksi]

This duplicates GAR 51. Also, what defines "natural disaster?" Roleplaying or nation description? And the WA cannot provide "aid" to a recently invaded region. That would be impossible.

In sending monetary packages we can actually solve the damages made by the "disaster" for example GRA51 provides aid for the people of the nation but not aid to rebuilding -- that is where our funding comes in. When the IDF sees that a disaster occurs than a monetary package will be delivered for specific things such as rebuilding infrastructure, rebuilding buildings and providing money to stabilize their economy in the case that it is to destabilize due to destruction of their assets.

I will fix the resolution so it demands on action and does not just establish an organization.

The sole co-sponsor has been decided thank you. I GREATLY thank you for your criticism so I can hopefully bring it to the floor of the General Assembly of the World Assembly.

After 3 drafts I am quite happy with this one but your citicism is still welcome!
