"Given that the author has failed to directly reference their proposed replacement(s) in their opening address, we have decided to do it for them:"
Edit: "We would support this promising effort, were it not for the fact that the proposed repeal and both potential replacements have some ways to go before they supersede the target resolution."

“Precisely, there is a replacement currently being drafted, but it doesn’t seem finished and therefore isn’t at the same level as the target resolution. I could potentially support a repeal, but not without a replacement of superior quality to the original.”

“Ambassadors, it may be worth noting that the replacement you are referring to is one of two in a set. The other one in the set being completely and fully drafted. Additionally, I feel the optionality of the target resolution, particularly clause 2, is severely detrimental to the outcomes it wishes to deliver. I hope you can offer good advice on the one in newer drafting, however, as we agree both the repeal and secondary replacement are in the newer stages of development and needs work done on it’s wording and specificity.”

OOC: To be fair, so is that part of your sentence. I know you're roleplaying, but unless your ambassador is a walking dictionary/robotic, try using more relaxed language when speaking as them. The proposal can be Legalese all the way, but real people don't really say things like you just did. Only some RP advice, don't worry too much. :)

IC: "Like many others have said, until there is a replacement that neither copies from the target, nor contains any of the issues you're trying to highlight, and does what the target does, only better, there's no point, really, to argue the repeal much, as practically all support depends on the merits of the replacement."

"Opposed. The proposing delegation represents a nation which refuses to comply in good faith with mandates of this assembly and wishes to pick and choose which mandates of World Assembly law they apply. We will not facilitate the assembly and its members being treated in such contempt."

"We has also noted that, however even if they were in compliance I cannot support either this or the replacements offered as they are inferior to the target"
