The Red-Greens Headquarters [NSG Senate]

[Unicario]

Confirming membership.

Thank you, please keep your eye on the party, we're going to be discussing some serious matters very soon.

Signed,
Unicario
Vice Chair

[HumanSanity]

I motion the following amendments to Red-Greens policy. They will be enacted upon being fifthed.

1. Motions will no longer require five seconds but rather a number of seconds equal to one tenth the number of members. Rounded up at 4 odd members out.

2. A Central Committee will be formed of the Chairman, Vice Chairman, Chief Whip, External Relations Commissioner, and Founder (Polvia). The Party Chairman will serve as the Chairman of the Central Committee. The Central Committee may act in cases where the matter at discussion is time or information sensitive. A majority will be sufficient to enact policy. A majority of a full party vote may overrule the Central Committee. Such a vote must be motioned and seconded in order to be called.

3. The position of "Election Commissioner" is hereby eliminated. Its duties will be filled by the Chairman and Vice Chairman. An individual may not serve as Election Commissioner in an election in which they are a candidate. If both the Chairman and Vice Chairman are candidates in an election then the Founder will serve as Election Commissioner.

Thank you

Obviously, I'm still here, since everyone seems to be confirming that they are indeed alive.

Out of interest, what does the role of External Relations Commissioner entail ?? Depending on the duties, I may be interested in the role.

The External Relations Commissioner is in charge of our relations with other parties in the Senate. You would appoint and manage ambassadors and keep up contact with the other parties.

In that case, I'd be willing to take that role.

Seconded.

Thirded, though for number three, what if all of those are standing in election, or if all of them go inactive? And for number 1, what if a motion has reached the required number of seconds, but more people are opposed?
I move that if both a motion and a counter motion has enough seconds, the matter goes to a full party vote.

These are perfectly reasonable concerns that you raise and I will address them here:

3. The likelihood of that happening is very low. If it would happen then we can change party policy regarding that.

As to your motion the current method is to fifth a motion to enact. You could argue that both are inherently flawed. Regardless, I'll second your motion on its merits.

Fair enough.

Thanks.

Any more seconds for this, people?

Also, what is the procedure for ties in internal elections?

Fourth.

1. Motions will no longer require five seconds but rather a number of seconds equal to one tenth the number of members. Rounded up at 4 odd members out.

I count 35 senators. So does my motion pass?
