[DRAFT] Repeal and Replace of GA#6 “Humanitarian Transport”

Postby Rvssyav » Mon Jan 01, 2018 12:30 pm

Just letting you all know, I have already submitted a repeal proposal of https://www.nationstates.net/page=WA_past_resolution/id=6/council=1. However, I understand that this repeal may bring about some issues on the proper conduct of to ensure the safe transportation of humanitarian cargo (as defined in clause 1 of the resolution).... so here I ALSO propose to replace GA#6 once it is repealed. Feel free to add any clauses to the proposal, I will include them in my final as long as I see enough support from others to your clause.

To show support to any other proposed clause, you may simply quote/reply such clause and comment “agreed” or “support”.
....
[EDIT]


DISREGARD ALL... Given that my attempts were all marked illegal on the basis of disagreement, I’d like to conduct a poll first.

Here’s the draft submitted (open to suggestions):

Understanding that the resolution was created with the concern that, at the time, there was an absence of international standards ruling the militaristic behavior of member nations,

Acknowledging that this resolution fails to provide any guidance to member nations in the emergency situation of an encounter with a non-member nation (which may not be as understanding of this resolution due to their status as non-members) therefore placing member-nations at a disadvantage,

Recognizing the importance of protecting humanitarian transport, as defined in clause 1 of the resolution, as well as the sovereignty of each member nation to choose a better fitting policy to determine protection of their and their regions humanitarian transport,

Hoping that this repeal will open the floor to a better discussion, and better policy ideas regarding the issue of humanitarian transport,

The General Assembly Resolution #6 is hereby repealed.

OOC: You may not reuse text from another resolution without permission of the author (which I can't imagine is forthcoming, considering that author CTE'd nearly a decade ago).

It's also considered good manners to link to the target resolution when you notify the forum of a repeal attempt. Here's the link to GAR #6.

Since you also didn't bother to link your repeal proposal, we have no reason to think this is even remotely a good idea. Consider withdrawing and then drafting that here too.

I saw, I resubmitted here’s the Repeal draft:

“Understanding that the resolution was created with the concern that, at the time, there was an absence of international standards ruling the militaristic behavior of member nations,

Acknowledging that this resolution fails to provide any guidance to member nations in the emergency situation of an encounter with a non-member nation (which may not be as understanding of this resolution due to their status as non-members) therefore placing member-nations at a disadvantage,

I had a feeling I shouldn’t, that’s not even remotely near to a final draft... which is why I asked for ideas. Thanks for the feedback.

I resubmitted the Repeal draft, which you may find below (with link of repeal):

“Understanding that the resolution was created with the concern that, at the time, there was an absence of international standards ruling the militaristic behavior of member nations,

Acknowledging that this resolution fails to provide any guidance to member nations in the emergency situation of an encounter with a non-member nation (which may not be as understanding of this resolution due to their status as non-members) therefore placing member-nations at a disadvantage,

Pretty new to this, so thanks for all the info. Try reviewing its legality in an unbiased manner, whether is a good idea or not is left to the WA delegates who choose to approve it or not.

Stop re-submitting the repeal until you've drafted it here and gotten actual feedback on it. This is not a race. This should take you several weeks to do it right, at the very least. If you keep submitting illegal proposals, you'll be penalized for spamming (/notamod); and if you keep submitting bad proposals, nobody will take you seriously in the event you ever submit a good one.
