Ambassador, as currently written, sections D and F essentially make it illegal to require HIV testing for sex workers and refusing to hire HIV positive sex workers. This is, bluntly an affront to basic public health in controlling STIs. We also wonder if this would not contradict the Clean Prostitut...
We would also support a repeal, on the sole condition that no replacement be attempted. This institution meddles entirely too much already, and does not need to further undermine good governance.
Mayor emeritus Anderson: Firstly, disenfranchisement for civil offences is seldom a problem and - when it is - largely so disproportionate that I have not heard of any, if any, nations using it. Secondly, Ambassador Hepperle is referred to his colleague from Uan aa Boa's comments during the debate ...
OOC: I was, in fact speaking in character. If I speak out of character it will be both marked like this (since this is an IC forum) and will not use the royal we that my character does. Regardless, if that was your level for being insulted, good luck with the GA. Iulia is downright fluffy compared t...
By the way, I have updated the proposal to fit the standards set by WA Resolution GAR #540 "You have not done so, ambassador," said Iulia, in the tone she usually reserved for talking to young children. "Since this needs to be spelled out for you, your proposal draft still states: If...
Ambassador, why is [i]us sanguinus defined in the resolution? You define it and then fail to use the term even once anywhere else in the proposal. We would suggest striking the term and renumbering accordingly.
"We concur with the Separatist delegation. In fact, we encourage the Tinhamptonian delegation to look into the criminalization of failing to support one's spouse as a far better policy alternative than wasteful government spending." OOC: See generally: Chapter 14 Section 322 of the North C...
OOC: Welcome to the WA. Let me start by saying thank you for 1, drafting first and 2, not picking a horrifically contentious repeal as your first foray. A couple of suggestions: You may want to review https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=3123204#p3123204 , which is a prior resolution defin...
Clause 5 is a bit of a mess given the rewording you made to, I believe clause 3. Clause 8 is superfluous in my opinion. Why are you granting a right to member states they already possess? Especially since those of us that qualify as civilized do that LONG before adulthood?
Your nation's full name (including pretitle) Res Publica Romana Desmosthensis et Burkensis (The Roman Republic of Desmosthenes and Burke) Your nation's current year 2021 Your nation's IC population Approximately 633 million Conformation - Is your nation MT? Yes Would you...
Section I - Basic Information The full name of your nation (including pretitle): Res Publica Romana Demostehnsis et Burkensis - The Roman Republic of Demosthenes and Burke The technology level of your nation: Current technology, more or less The IC population of your nation: approximate 633...
This resolution is as offensive and unnecessary as it is toothless. OOC: Article b(iii) is worded in such a way as to render the resolution entirely incapable of addressing: the various archaic policies on clothing (such as companies forbidding their female employees from wearing flat shoes or trous...
All bolding/italicising mine. OOC: -snip- Ask fucking damn near anyone in TNP's WA staff who was active at the time. Ask damn near anyone in the GA who was active at the time. I will not be held responsible for people who didn't read the goddamn resolution . The blocker is cleanly divested from the ...
OOC: In re: gerrymandering. The word is accepted, in lowercase, in the Petit Robert as a French word. I think we are more than at the point of the word being generic enough. IC: So long as this resolution mandates that some WA organ determines electoral districts, to the point of meddling in municip...
We concur with the Separatist delegation. We see no reason to impose this sort of mandate to protect people from their own stupidity. If you are that concerned about it, ambassador, you are free to make your emergency number whatever you want. We will even happily let you pay to put up extra signs w...
"We agree with Ambassador Smith. Clause 4 is a complete non-starter for us. The standard is entirely too subjective and subject to abuse. One could conceivably declare, under this resolution, that the comitia plebis is illegal, since the abuse of opposing politicians is a roughly daily occurren...
"Absolutely not. Nobody has yet demonstrated why religious "structures" should be held up above all others. What about eminent domain? Why should someone's residence and all sorts of other sites be fair game for having a motorway built through them but just because some deluded fool ...
OOC: Why does clause 4 reference clause 2? Would it not make more sense for clause 4 to reference the restrictions of clause 3? Also, clause two currently reads "materials that cause as little environmental damage as possible for the physical stage of land reclamation that cause as little envir...
If the drug in question is being compared to a second drug, the two will be administered in equivalent clinically standard dosages and with equivalent clinically standard regularity, so that neither has an inherent advantage in performance over the other arising from the OOC: Since I am assuming yo...
Removal due to continous inability because less than 90% of the people in that type of position, rounded down, are able to perform their job This makes no sense. Incompetent judges can or cannot be removed based on how other judges perform? No logic. It does. If there are so many their presence is ...
