Draft 1:
Enacting Building Safety
Category: Regulation | Area of Effect: Safety | Proposed By: Terttia
The World Assembly,
Lamenting the current condition of some member states’ buildings’ safety,
Hoping to enact uniform building safety regulations throughout member states,
Aspiring to protect the citizens of member states,
Seeking to improve the safety of buildings throughout member states,
Hereby,
- Defines, for the purposes of this resolution
- a “building” as a pre-planned, enclosed structure on a plot of land designated for public use,
- “evacuation procedures” as pre planned procedures that ensure the evacuation of a building;
- Establishes the World Assembly Commission for Building Safety (WACBS);
- Empowers the WACBS with
- creating uniform signs and signals for the purposes of evacuation procedures
- researching and enacting uniform building safety codes taking in to consideration of environmental conditions, including
- structural integrity,
- evacuation procedures,
- fire safety, and
- electrical safety;
- Mandates that member states align their building safety code with that of the WACBS, including private-turned-public buildings;
- Exempts public-turned-private buildings from the WACBS’s building safety code;
- Encourages member states to further legislate on the subject of building safety.
As of now, I believe there are more things that the WACBS could regulate in 3(b).
