- that said needs, as referenced above, must be appropriately catered to in order to prevent a breakdown of sufficient functionality within the General Assembly.

THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY IS THUS FURTHER RESOLVED;

- that an organization must be created for the specific and singular purpose of properly and centrally administrating; the calculation and disbursement of funding, coordination and development of proper Human Resources, location, maintenance, construction, and development of General Assembly, and related organizational offices, proper maintenance and management of records of attainder, accounting, and similar operations, as well as the multi-level management and execution of internal policy, procedure, strategy, and operations, within the General Assembly’s many organizations and related entities.

FURTHERMORE, THE CHAMBER HEREBY VESTS THE COMMISSION WITH THE FOLLOWING SELECT AUTHORITIES & PRIVILEGES;

- the authority to determine the; relevancy and necessity of all W.A sponsored, created, designated, funded, and/or associated; projects, initiatives, organizations, agencies, institutions, properties, and/or other related assets.

-the authority to; close, suspend, terminate, cancel, and/or otherwise end any and all; W.A sponsored, created, designated, funded, and/or associated; projects, initiatives, organizations, agencies, institutions, properties, and/or other related assets.

- the authority to intervene in the daily administration of all organizations within the the jurisdiction of the Commission and General Assembly.

FURTHER, THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY DOES HEREBY MANDATE MEMBER NATIONS;

- Once every two years, render, for all W.A sponsored, created, designated, funded, and/or associated; projects, initiatives, organizations, agencies, institutions, properties, and/or other related assets that; benefit, are associated with, primarily function within, and/or are otherwise in cooperation with their country(ies), justification and proof of future ability to remain relevant, poignant, and necessary to the Commission and its Chancellor, via; report, testimony, and/or similar input.

- Cooperate with the Commission in good faith to achieve the above.

IT IS THUS RESOLVED.

RL reference in the date; possibly wrong category; metagaming with ‘general secretariat’; and committee only, since the only burden on member nations is to provide a report to the Commission.
Hello! I’m a GAer and NS Roleplayer from the United Kingdom.
My pronouns are he/him.
Any posts that I make as GenSec will be clearly marked as such and OOC. Conversely, my IC ambassador in the General Assembly is Ambassador Fortier. I’m always happy to discuss ideas about proposals, particularly if grammar or wording are in issue. I am also Executive Deputy Minister for the WA Ministry of TNP.
Kenmoria is an illiberal yet democratic nation pursuing the goals of communism in a semi-effective fashion. It has a very broad diplomatic presence despite being economically developing, mainly to seek help in recovering from the effect of a recent civil war. Read the factbook here for more information; perhaps, I will eventually finish it.

General Assembly Proposal
ID: lebapersian_1567342451
Right to a Fair trial

A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.

Category: Civil Rights

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Lebapersian

Observing that there is currently no guarantee of justice for those accused of criminal acts.

Noting that convictions are often unsafe due to the absence of any legal requirements for a trial under international law

Remarking that miscarriages of justice are common.

Believing that it should be everyone’s right to be protected from unjust and malicious prosecution.

Further believing that the more rigorous examination of evidence seen in a fair trial will lead to fewer innocent people being subjected to a miscarriage of justice.

Hereby mandates that all WA member nations guarantee a fair trial to anyone facing prosecution in their territory, in accordance with the following requirements:

Article 1 § That the accused be seen as innocent until proven guilty beyond all reasonable doubt, thus placing the onus of proof on the prosecuting authority.

Article 2 § That the defendant be given the right to present his case or to be represented by a person of his choosing.

Article 3 § That should the defendant be unable to afford the services of a representative, the state should be duly required to provide a representative to ensure a fair trial.

Article 4 § That the evidence shall be considered by an impartial jury of no less than 5 people and presided over by a judge with knowledge of the laws being applied and the requirements for a trial.

Article 5 § That all persons shall have the right to remain silent when questioned, and exercising this right shall not be used as evidence against them in court.

Article 6 § That information and testimony may not be extracted under duress or using any form of physical or psychological torture. Any information found to have been obtained through physical or psychological torture will be found inadmissible.

Article 7 § That the defendant shall have the right to question any witness who provides evidence.

Article 8 § That the defendant be entitled to appeal against both the sentence and verdict that has been passed.

Article 8 § That any punitive sentence passed by a court be proportional to the crime committed.

Article 9 § That the proceedings of the trial conclude within a reasonable time period.

RL reference in the date; possibly wrong category; metagaming with ‘general secretariat’; and committee only, since the only burden on member nations is to provide a report to the Commission.

I'm not bothered about the date used, because of the translation convention. Here's what I posted:
Illegal - Doesn't fit the category (or ANY category, really); mention of the General Secretariat (presuming that you mean the OOC 'GA Secretariat)' is Meta-gaming); the power that you give it over projects and agencies established by earlier resolutions contradicts (or amends) at least some of those resolutions; and 'Committee-Only' (Resolutions must require, or at least urge, more action from the member nations than just filing paperwork). It's very well written, though, and i look forward to seeing other proposals from you... but drafting them in the GA forum, where you can receive advice and feedback from experienced players, is definitely advisable.

General Assembly Proposal
ID: whole_india_1567501367

Anti-Trafficking Act
A resolution to enact uniform standards that protect workers, consumers, and the general public.

Category: Regulation
Area of Effect: Transportation
Proposed by: Whole India
The General Assembly,
Smuggling is a practice which is directly related to the black market.
To prevent taxes or duties on the goods smuggling is carried out.
Much smuggling occurs when enterprising merchants attempt to supply demand for a good or service that is illegal or heavily taxed. As a result, illegal drug trafficking, and the smuggling of weapons (illegal arms trade), as well as the historical staples of smuggling, alcohol and tobacco, are widespread. As the smuggler faces significant risk of civil and criminal penalties if caught with contraband, smugglers are able to impose a significant price premium on smuggled goods. The profits involved in smuggling goods appear to be extensive.
TO stop Trafficking following must be done.
1] Drug Traffickers must be given a long prison punishment.
2] By road each car crossing national border must be completely checked.
3] On sea trade the captain of the ship must carry a licence Giving permission to him/her to carry out trade.
4] The coastal guard must check each ship and verify the licence.
5] The smugglers will be arrested and will be given a sentence according to the transportation department court.
6] The officer who arrests and proves the smugglers that officer salary will be increased.
7] In the case of being bribed the officer will be suspended.
8] Each airplane transportation of goods will to require a licence which will given to the pilots.
9] All goods will be checked which will be traded on international borders.
10] For domestic trade also above process will be followed.
HEREBY,
1] Black market to decline.
2] crime rate to reduce.
3] Corruption to reduce.
4] Fair trade will be carried out.
request the general secretaries and all nations to support the bill.

Is referencing GenSec legal?

No.
Illegal — Category incorrect ('Regulation: Transportation' is to make the transportation process safer: This should be 'Moral Decency' instead); Proposal Basics (Format: Proposals must be written in the form that they would have as passed resolutions, so the closing "request" line is therefore inappropriate); Meta-gaming (that same line's mention of "general secretaries", clearly meaning GenSec, because GenSec is an OOC aspect of the game). Incidentally, the whole proposal would benefit from longer drafting and listening to feedback from more experienced players.

Standardisation Of Proposals Submitted To The GA

A resolution to increase democratic freedoms.

Category: Furtherment of Democracy

Strength: Mild

Proposed by: Keswickholt

As the number of proposals grow there is no set manner into which the proposal is formatted.

This proposal calls for a recognised format that must be adhered to by members of the World Assembly who wish to submit a proposal.

Standardisation will improve the quality and efficiency of proposals and make it easier for everyone to read.

Section 1: Discussion
A discussion must be held on the General Assembly Forum to establish an agreed formal format for proposals submitted that enshrine international law.
a) The discussion must take place over a period of 7 days to allow a majority of members to be able to take part in the discussion and to make suggestions for a format.
b) The discussion must be civil and respect the views of other members and must not become offensive to any person, nation or religion.
c) The discussion shall not exceed the 7 days set out in S1)a) and at the end a proposal with the suggested format shall be published to be voted on.

Section 2: Reasoning
It is now more than ever, with over 460 resolutions, necessary for a standardisation of the format of proposals, as such a standardised format would allow for a greater ability to read and digest the information that has been proposed by a member and in doing so will easily establish a better understanding of the proposal as not to confuse or render it impossible to determine the precise information being conveyed.

Section 3: Effect on Democratic Values
The proposal of a standardisation of the format of proposals will not undermine any democratic value as the standardisation is designed to allow for better understanding as is mentioned in Section 2 of this proposal.
a) The idea to standardise formal documents is as old as Government itself and as such it is a tried and tested way of maintaining a strong orderly understanding of policies and processes that allow for the daily operations of businesses and nations.
b) Bureaucracy is a necessity for the workings of a large international organisation such as the World Assembly and as such a standardisation of many aspects would make a smoother experience for all members.
c) A standardised format would allow for a more democratic approach to the acceptance or dissolution of proposals made by members;
1) Information would be presented in a clearer manner allowing any person to be able to understand what the proposal is trying to convey;
2) The format would then allow members to make a better educated vote on the outcome of the proposal.

Looks more like game mechanics than metagaming. There is nothing there that actually breaks the fourth wall.

Any posts that I make as GenSec will be clearly marked as such and OOC. Conversely, my IC ambassador in the General Assembly is Ambassador Fortier. I’m always happy to discuss ideas about proposals, particularly if grammar or wording are in issue. I am also Executive Deputy Minister for the WA Ministry of TNP.
Kenmoria is an illiberal yet democratic nation pursuing the goals of communism in a semi-effective fashion. It has a very broad diplomatic presence despite being economically developing, mainly to seek help in recovering from the effect of a recent civil war. Read the factbook here for more information; perhaps, I will eventually finish it.

‘General Assembly Forum’? That seems to be referring to the NS forums rather than any IC place.


That would be metagaming yes. Also game mechanics though as it is requiring that a discussion take place. Amazing that one sentence can break two rules.
Sarcasm dispensed moderately.

Healthcare Should Be A More Funded Part Of A Nation

A resolution to modify universal standards of healthcare.

Category: Health

Area of Effect: International Aid

Proposed by: Molanupet

Healthcare, Should be a more funded part of a nation
Healthcare as in, international Aid, Research, and Bioethics combined,

All nations of this time should not be completely be forced into improving healthcare conditions and funding, but most nations should at least make a change in their healthcare.

Most nations need to make healthcare a bigger part of their economy, they should send more in international aid, and should research.

Implied optionality ‘most nations should at least make a change’, if this is supposed to apply to the second clause; possibly wrong category, as this does things other than international aid.

CHILD ABANDONMENT ACT
A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.

Category: Civil Rights
Strength: Mild
Proposed by: Cape Flower
CHILD ABANDONMENT ACT
I hereby propose for a global act to safe guard children who are by law abandoned to the name of women's rights . These children are those to more advance our countries in all sectors for the betterment of all. It would be rather woefully pathetic to see these bright and smart kids on the streets while our individual countries still have problems unattended let alone, addressed to ensure general wellbeing because their mothers refuse to cater for them.
It would be generally at testable for the WA ASSEMBLY and all parties involved to bring this social canker to a successful, conclusive end with all might and authority by
1. Pushing harder to convince countries with such laws repeal it.
2. Punishing a country if it fails to adhere to (1) by three consecutive warnings.
3. Crippling a country through its top earning industries.

Forced Sterilization On Unintelligent Citizens
A resolution to restrict civil freedoms in the interest of moral decency.

Category: Moral Decency
Strength: Strong
Proposed by: Khazkevar

A proposal to force sterilization on any citizens who's IQ falls below 70 to prevent further decline of intelligence and overpopulation.

All of which who fall below an intelligence quotient of 70 required to be sterilized immediately.
When a citizen reaches adulthood they are to take an IQ test to see if they meet the international standard.
Those of which who refuse to comply with being sterilized are to be terminated for being a threat to the general public.
The goal of this law is to prevent further overpopulation and intelligence decline through stopping the unintelligent from reproduction.

Seconds ago: Bears Armed: Illegal — This clearly refers to the 'IQ test' used in RL, as it does not define any alternative version: As such it makes the proposal Illegal for 'RL Reference'. Also, if any member nation recognises anybody at all with an IQ below 70 as legally competent -- which they are free to do, under GA Resolution #299 -- this would contradict both GAR #299 (clause 1) and GAR #29 (clause 4).
