The Senate Coffee Shop: This Is Not The Chamber

[Tectonix]

It'd essentially just be a branch of the national police force. ICly, it'd be the same as it was last time.

If you put the SPF under the Presiding Officer of the Senate and remove Id. I'll sponsor.

1d can be removed, but why put the SPF under the PO? Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't it make more sense under the Serjeant-at-Arms?

Well the way we've done it in the past is that ICly the PO appoints the SerGeant at arms and is OOCly them and they control the senate's police form.

Or parliamentary police or whatever they've been called.

Then there is no need to have the PO in control; just have the PO appoint the Serjeant-at-Arms, and do as you stated. That's what I was thinking of anyways. Problem solved.

That is more of an IC thing, seeing as the central government wouldn't be instituting it as it would a capital. Still, that's perfectly fine.

2. Institutes the Senate, High Court and Provisional Office of the Executive to comprise the Provisional Government.
3. Defines the Senate as the unicameral legislature of Fernão, charged with drafting bills, voting on them, submitting them for the consideration of the Interim President, and all other charges assumed by a federal legislature. The Senate retains the right to appoint the Provisional President and Provisional Vice President either together or separately by a two-thirds majority.
4. Declares that Senator Alexios C. Viel (RGA - Tectonix) be sworn in as Interim Speaker of the legislature following this bill achieving quorum, awaiting a formal vote for the position of Speaker of the Senate; the Interim Speaker is charged with maintaining order, bringing bills to the table, assuring the adherence to decorum and working towards the formulation of the Fernãoan Constitution. The Interim Speaker also has the responsibility of appointing a Serjeant-at-Arms, whom is charged with maintaining order and security in the physical Senate chamber, as well as overseeing the Senatorial Police Force, among other security-related affairs.
5. Construes the Provisional Office of the Executive as the executive body of Fernão, headed by the Provisional President and their deputy, the Provisional Vice President. The Provisional President is charged with approving or vetoing bills passed by the Senate, which can override the veto by a 2/3rds majority; the Provisional Vice President is charged with advising the Provisional President and sitting in on Senatorial sessions for the purpose of assisting in the process of creating a Constitution.
6. Specifies the High Court to be the supreme legal counsel of Fernão, with all legal appeals being resolved in full by it. The High Court is benched by nine independent justices, appointed by the Senate by a supermajority of 80%. The High Court is charged with reviewing bills passed by the Senate and Provisional Office of the Executive, as well as hearing appellate cases and other such legal matters.
