[DRAFT] Accomodating Stateless Persons

[Aidenfieeld]

Accomodating Stateless Persons

Proposed by: Aidenfieeld, Atymnius

---

Greetings, all!

This proposal intends to provide for and protect the rights of those who are not legally recognized in any capacity by a state. This may include refugees and other migrants, but also covers anyone else that, for one reason or another, is not recognized as holding legal residence in any state (hence the use of the broader term "stateless persons"). We've come at this here from two main angles; firstly, using a WA agency (the WASB) to identify and provide to stateless persons basic essential services, and secondly, encouraging particpation by member states in working to end the stateless status of individuals by providing them with opportunities for work, whilst steadfastly protecting the rights of such individuals.

Massive credit must be given to my co-author, Atymnius, who initially birthed the idea for this proposal, and who contributed just-about half of what you see here. Ultimately, one of us had to take the lead author role, but this is about as close as you can get to a truly equally co-written proposal.

This is the second draft. Previous editions can be found at the bottom of this post.

The World Assembly,

Observing the marginalization and exploitation of stateless persons through economic, social, and political means, regardless of subsequent naturalization;

Noting the frequent inability of stateless persons to access jobs, or secure economic stability through non-perilous or regular means of income necessary for a suitable standard of living;

Concerned that these issues often constitute violations of fundamental rights;

Believing that the unique vulnerability of stateless persons to these issues necessitates that a basic level of protection and assistance be provided to such individuals under international law;

1. Hereby defines:
   
   
   1. “Stateless persons” as sapient beings and persons who are not citizens and have not achieved naturalization by any State, or are not legally recognized as a resident of any State;
      
   2. “Naturalization” as the integration of stateless persons within Member States and, having achieved relevant immigration or legal recognition, their recognition as citizens;
      
   3. “Importation” of stateless persons as the deliberate facilitation or transfer of stateless persons to a Member State on the part of the relevant government authority or private entity concerned within;
      
   4. "Able-working" persons as individuals who fully possess the necessary mental and physical capacities to effectively complete the tasks required of them in a given place of work. For this purpose, children and those of advanced age are not considered "able-working";
      
   5. "Undue and unnatural pressure" as any situation or condition imposed in bad faith by a member state upon an individual, that is solely intended to provoke a particular response from said individual, by forcing them to consider factors that otherwise would not influence their response;
2. Creates the World Assembly Statelessness Bureau (WASB) to monitor and assist stateless persons through the conducting of activities including:
   
   
   1. Maintaining a registry of all participant stateless persons within the organization, in addition to an extended annual world census analysis on stateless persons more broadly, which shall include any relevant economic, political, cultural and social factors;
      
   2. Providing employment opportunities, if available, to registered able-working stateless persons according to their qualifications within relevant committees and organizations of the WA, where durably feasible for all parties involved;
      
   3. Accommodating stateless persons with regularly maintained housing facilities accessible to areas of work, in addition to recreational areas, located on WA territory, or if necessary or desired, within Member States, provided that consent is given by the state in question. The WASB may cooperate with Member States to provide housing, including for stateless persons imported by members;
      
   4. Supplying medical assistance at these facilities, including for disabilities, sickness, trauma, and any other circumstances warranting medical attention;
      
   5. In cooperation with Member States, allowing for the necessary passage of stateless persons to subsequent naturalisation in accordance with the Convention;
      
   6. Receiving formal complaints from stateless and former stateless persons on perceived violations of the Convention by Member States, which shall undergo investigation by the WASB, and be reviewed by a dedicated judge employed by the Bureau who may order the cessation of any offending conduct by member states towards stateless persons.
3. Encourages Member States to provide guaranteed opportunities for employment to able-working stateless persons. Upon receiving consent from any and all relevant individuals, Member States may import recruited stateless persons for the purposes of fulfilling those opportunities.
   
4. Mandates that the following Convention be adopted for all processes involving stateless persons among all WA Member States:
   
   
   1. Member States shall provide stateless persons with a level of protection under law that is adequate in ensuring that their fundamental rights are upheld;
      
   2. The adequacy of these rights shall be on the same basis to that of ordinary citizens within Member States.
      
   3. All stateless persons imported by Member States shall be provided with a reasonable and expedient process by which they are to be naturalized, as determined to work best under the immigration system of the Member State in question;
      
   4. Neither Member States nor private entities may force or coerce stateless persons into a nation or its workforce by any means. Examples of such coercion may include physical acts (such as forcible transfer), psychological manipulation (including threats of violence), or any other tactic which places an undue and unnatural pressure on stateless persons to relent;
      
   5. Member States shall not recruit nor import stateless persons as a means of artificially suppressing the wages, salaries, or other forms of worker compensation for naturalized and native citizens, and must create a legal framework to prevent private enterprises from doing so in turn;
      
   6. Stateless persons, regardless of their status of naturalization, shall receive the same workplace protections and benefits as are provided to any naturalized or native worker in the same economic sector;
      
   7. Stateless persons, regardless of their status of naturalization, shall be compensated for their work with no less than the standard level of compensation as would be provided to a native citizen for the same labour. This compensation may not be withheld for an excessive or unnatural length of time;
      
   8. Member States shall not revoke or deny any fundamental rights to a current or former stateless person should they become incapacitated or otherwise unable to work, nor if they are laid-off from their place of occupation. These include both physical complications such as injury and overexertion, and mental considerations including stress, depression, amnesia or any other form of occupational impairment.

[The Crusader Kings]

All of this is plagued by a fatal flaw: What about Non-WA Member State "Stateless" people? If I don't accept immigrants, for any number of reasons, you aren't going to make me do so.

"Creates the World Assembly Statelessness Bureau (WASB) to monitor and assist stateless persons, with unconditional access to adjoining properties within the World Assembly Headquarters (WASBBRHQ) where deemed appropriate, in addition to any other relevant properties for the conduction of activities including, but not limited to:"... so this single Bureau gets full access to ALL the offices, of ALL the other organizations within WASBBRHQ? Don't lie to me, but PLEASE tell me I'm reading that wrong...

"Supplying employment opportunities for any able-working stateless person within relevant committees or organizations resident within the WA;" So what if my OWN people don't have jobs? You want me to just MAGICALLY produce jobs out of thin air?

"Accommodating stateless persons with regularly maintained housing facilities in addition to recreational areas, accessible to areas of work;" Again, what if my OWN people don't have housing?

"Providing medical assistance including for disabilities, sickness, trauma, and any other circumstances warranting medical attention;" Same thing as the previous 2. If my OWN PEOPLE can't get medical help, why should a potentially non-WA Member stateless person get medical help?

"In cooperation with Member States, allowing for the necessary passage of stateless persons to subsequent naturalisation in accordance with the Convention;" Not against this, if it wasn't for all the other problems.

"Requires the WASB to maintain a registry of all participant stateless persons within the organization, in addition to an extended annual world census analysis on stateless persons more broadly, which shall include any relevant economic, political, cultural and social factors; That would be hard, but I'm not against it.

"Receiving formal complaints from stateless and former stateless persons on perceived violations of the Convention by Member States of which shall undergo judicial review." And who is conducting this "Judicial Review"? Under what laws, and what punishments?

"Neither Member States nor private entities may force or coerce stateless persons into a nation or its workforce by any means. Examples of such coercion may include physical acts (such as forcible transfer), psychological manipulation (including threats of violence), or any other tactic which places an undue and unnatural pressure on stateless persons to relent;" Define "Unnatural". If peers pressure them to go work at an amazing place, is that "Unnatural"? Also, if I'm Oceania(from 1984, good book BTW), and ALL my workers are psychologically manipulated from Birth...

I'm AGAINST this, but I could be convinced to vote FOR, if you and your co-author fix the mistakes I've outlined.

Seems good, but why convince us why to vote for this, what are the major benefits for accommodating stateless persons?

1: Here the situation is complicated. A stateless person can have citizenship and every other right, but what about the people that still says "Look at that foreign! Booo!..."
2: This sentence doesn't make a lot of sence, grammatically.
3: I didn't understand can you explain, please?
4: First, it's relative, you should say a precise number, then, if the tribunal needs mor time for every reason, GA shouldn't intrude.
5: So non-member states can do all theese thing? And this is not the unic point where it happens.
As it's now, I probably will vote Against, but I'm ready to change vote if you fix theese things.

[Aidenfieeld]

Thank you all very much for your comments!

The draft has been edited in the following ways to address some of the criticism:
- The line about giving the WASB unconditional access to WA properties has been removed, and replaced with the following, much simpler version: "Creates the World Assembly Statelessness Bureau (WASB) to monitor and assist stateless persons through the conducting of activities including, but not necessarily limited to:"
- The procedure surrounding complaints of member state Convention violations brought to the WASB by stateless persons has been expanded upon: "Receiving formal complaints from stateless and former stateless persons on perceived violations of the Convention by Member States, which shall undergo investigation by the WASB, and be reviewed by a dedicated judge employed by the Bureau who may order the cessation of any offending conduct by member states towards stateless persons."
- A definition has been added for "undue and unnatural pressure": "Undue and unnatural pressure" as any situation or condition imposed in bad faith by a member state upon an individual, that is solely intended to provoke a particular response from said individual by forcing them to consider factors that otherwise would not influence their response".

All of this is plagued by a fatal flaw: What about Non-WA Member State "Stateless" people? If I don't accept immigrants, for any number of reasons, you aren't going to make me do so.

Your concerns are understandable. To address the latter first: this is why we made an effort to limit the burden required of member states; Clause III does not require member states to accept stateless persons, but merely encourages it. Therefore, states can simply not engage in naturalizing or even providing residence to stateless persons; if they're unable or unwilling to accept stateless persons, there is nothing stipulating that they must do so anyway.

To your first point: as currently written, this proposal counts anyone that has not achieved legal recognition by any state (including non-WA members) as being "stateless". However (I'm not sure if this is what you're getting at, but I'll mention it anyway), it does not count anyone that has legal recognition within non-WA member states as being "stateless", as they definitionally do still have a legal status within a state, even if not under WA law. Crucially, this proposal places literally no responsibility whatsoever on non-WA states, nor even includes them in receiving "encouragement" (OOC: obviously, this would be illegal if it did place responsibility there). But by including stateless persons from non-WA states, this proposal protects and provide for them in the same ways as those from member states, without creating any additional burdens (or breaking any rules).

"Creates the World Assembly Statelessness Bureau (WASB) to monitor and assist stateless persons, with unconditional access to adjoining properties within the World Assembly Headquarters (WASBBRHQ) where deemed appropriate, in addition to any other relevant properties for the conduction of activities including, but not limited to:"... so this single Bureau gets full access to ALL the offices, of ALL the other organizations within WASBBRHQ? Don't lie to me, but PLEASE tell me I'm reading that wrong...

Very understandable concern. This bit has been removed (see list of edits above).

"Supplying employment opportunities for any able-working stateless person within relevant committees or organizations resident within the WA;" So what if my OWN people don't have jobs? You want me to just MAGICALLY produce jobs out of thin air?

"Accommodating stateless persons with regularly maintained housing facilities in addition to recreational areas, accessible to areas of work;" Again, what if my OWN people don't have housing?

"Providing medical assistance including for disabilities, sickness, trauma, and any other circumstances warranting medical attention;" Same thing as the previous 2. If my OWN PEOPLE can't get medical help, why should a potentially non-WA Member stateless person get medical help?

I will respectfully point-out that all of these are responsibilities of the WASB, not individual member states. So providing jobs, housing, and medical care to stateless persons does not fall upon member states, and is thus not contingent on the availability of such resources within them. This only applies to stateless persons that have not yet immigrated to/been re-homed within volunteer member states, and are seeking direct aid from the WASB instead. Apologies if that wasn't sufficiently clear.

"Receiving formal complaints from stateless and former stateless persons on perceived violations of the Convention by Member States of which shall undergo judicial review." And who is conducting this "Judicial Review"? Under what laws, and what punishments?

The procedure surrounding complaints of member state Convention violations brought to the WASB by stateless persons has been expanded upon (see above) to introduce WASB investigators and dedicated judges to hear cases. The laws being ruled on are those stipulated in the Convention section (Clauses IV.a. to IV.h.). As for punishments, it's very difficult to create an effective enforcement mechanism without bringing-up complaints about sovereignty; instead, WASB judges have been given the ability to order a cessation of offending activities by member states. It's not ideal, but I don't think there's much rrom for anything else.

"Neither Member States nor private entities may force or coerce stateless persons into a nation or its workforce by any means. Examples of such coercion may include physical acts (such as forcible transfer), psychological manipulation (including threats of violence), or any other tactic which places an undue and unnatural pressure on stateless persons to relent;" Define "Unnatural". If peers pressure them to go work at an amazing place, is that "Unnatural"? Also, if I'm Oceania(from 1984, good book BTW), and ALL my workers are psychologically manipulated from Birth...

I'm AGAINST this, but I could be convinced to vote FOR, if you and your co-author fix the mistakes I've outlined.

A definition for "undue and unnatural pressure" has been added.
Thank you again for your comments!

Seems good, but why convince us why to vote for this, what are the major benefits for accommodating stateless persons?

I appreciate the (tentative) approbation!
The major benefits of this proposal are largely listed in the preamble; namely, that it works to safeguard the fundamental rights of stateless persons, which are frequently left precarious, due to their status as holding no legal recognition by any state. In such instances, the WA should step-in to provide them with legal recognition and protection, and help to meet their basic needs. But in addition, this proposal provides a legal framework for ending statelessness by encouraging (but not requiring) member states to import and offer naturalization to stateless persons in exchange for the economic benefits that may come with it, all whilst placing reasonable restrictions and expectations on member states that engage in this to safeguard the rights of stateless persons (and prevent importation from being used as a tool to harm existing domestic workers).

Interest points have been marked in bold

1: Here the situation is complicated. A stateless person can have citizenship and every other right, but what about the people that still says "Look at that foreign! Booo!..."

This is true, but it's impossible to regulate individual-level bigotry. But you can create legal and bureaucratic avenues to ameliorate systemic-level issues, and providing stateless persons with legal recognition and a pathway to citizenship is massively beneficial to them.

2: This sentence doesn't make a lot of sence, grammatically.

Fair enough. It has been removed and replaced (see list of edits above).

3: I didn't understand can you explain, please?

That is saying that member states may import and provide stateless persons with guaranteed employment and a path to naturalization if they receive consent from the individual(s) that they wish to import. The "opportunities" in question are the aforementioned guaranteed employment opportunities for the stateless person(s) as part of this.

4: First, it's relative, you should say a precise number, then, if the tribunal needs mor time for every reason, GA shouldn't intrude.

We deliberately avoided giving a precise number, as that would arbitrarily place an undue burden on member states, given the vast differences between their various existing immigration systems. This stipulation is intended to work within the context of any member's immigration system, and implemented in the way that they themselves deem best. The word "expedient" is simply meant to imply that these cases should not be arbitrarily dragged-out over unnecessarily long periods of time relative to normal lengths of time under the given system of immigration law.

5: So non-member states can do all theese thing? And this is not the unic point where it happens.
As it's now, I probably will vote Against, but I'm ready to change vote if you fix theese things.

(OOC: It is against the GA ruleset to enforce compliance by non-WA member states. WA resolutions can only mandate that things be done by WA members, so by necessity, yes, the convention only applies to member states.)
Thanks for your comments. I hope this has ameliorated some of your concerns!

[Bonderovia]

Stateless people also include criminals in exile, as far as my logic says-Should WASB help them too?

[Lipizia]

Ok, this new draft Is better. i looked tot the responses and now I'm For.

[Zetaopalatopia]

While it is agreeable that stateless individuals be treated with the same respect one would give another being, their is no incentive for the nations to accept or import them is they must be for all intents and purposes be treated like citizens despite not paying any taxes or otherwise providing for the state as a citizen would. Instead I propose that it be allowed to hire stateless at a reduced rate so long as you are also providing shelter, as a stateless in some states would not have the rights to hold property anyway.

Accomodating Stateless Persons

Proposed by: Aidenfieeld, Atymnius

---

Greetings, all!

This proposal intends to provide for and protect the rights of those who are not legally recognized in any capacity by a state. This may include refugees and other migrants, but also covers anyone else that, for one reason or another, is not recognized as holding legal residence in any state (hence the use of the broader term "stateless persons"). We've come at this here from two main angles; firstly, using a WA agency (the WASB) to identify and provide to stateless persons basic essential services, and secondly, encouraging particpation by member states in working to end the stateless status of individuals by providing them with opportunities for work, whilst steadfastly protecting the rights of such individuals.

Massive credit must be given to my co-author, Atymnius, who initially birthed the idea for this proposal, and who contributed just-about half of what you see here. Ultimately, one of us had to take the lead author role, but this is about as close as you can get to a truly equally co-written proposal.

This is the first draft. When edits are made, previous drafts will be found at the bottom of this post.

The World Assembly,

Observing the marginalization and exploitation of stateless persons through economic, social, and political means, regardless of subsequent naturalization;

Noting the frequent inability of stateless persons to access jobs, or secure economic stability through non-perilous or regular means of income necessary for a suitable standard of living;

Concerned that these issues often constitute violations of fundamental rights;

Believing that the unique vulnerability of stateless persons to these issues necessitates that a basic level of protection and assistance be provided to such individuals under international law;

1. Hereby defines:
   
   
   1. “Stateless persons” as sapient beings and persons who have not achieved naturalization by any State, or have not been recognized by any of its relevant legal or immigration authorities;
      
   2. “Naturalization” as the integration of stateless persons within Member States and, having achieved relevant immigration or legal recognition, their recognition as citizens;
      
   3. “Importation” of stateless persons as the deliberate facilitation or transfer of stateless persons to a Member State on the part of the relevant government authority or private entity concerned within;
2. Creates the World Assembly Statelessness Bureau (WASB) to monitor and assist stateless persons, with unconditional access to adjoining properties within the World Assembly Headquarters (WASBBRHQ) where deemed appropriate, in addition to any other relevant properties for the conduction of activities including, but not limited to:
   
   
   1. Supplying employment opportunities for any able-working stateless person within relevant committees or organizations resident within the WA;
      
   2. Accommodating stateless persons with regularly maintained housing facilities in addition to recreational areas, accessible to areas of work;
      
   3. Providing medical assistance including for disabilities, sickness, trauma, and any other circumstances warranting medical attention;
      
   4. In cooperation with Member States, allowing for the necessary passage of stateless persons to subsequent naturalisation in accordance with the Convention;
      
   5. Requires the WASB to maintain a registry of all participant stateless persons within the organization, in addition to an extended annual world census analysis on stateless persons more broadly, which shall include any relevant economic, political, cultural and social factors;
      
   6. Receiving formal complaints from stateless and former stateless persons on perceived violations of the Convention by Member States of which shall undergo judicial review.
3. Encourages Member States to provide guaranteed opportunities for employment to stateless persons. Upon receiving consent from any and all relevant individuals, Member States may import recruited stateless persons for the purposes of fulfilling those opportunities.
   
4. Mandates that the following Convention be adopted for all processes involving stateless persons among all WA Member States:
   
   
   1. Member States shall provide imported stateless persons with a level of protection under law that is adequate in ensuring that their fundamental rights are upheld;
      
   2. The adequacy of these rights shall be on the same basis to that of ordinary citizens within Member States.
      
   3. All stateless persons recruited and imported by Member States shall be provided with a reasonable and expedient process by which they may be naturalized, as determined to work best under the immigration system of the Member State in question;
      
   4. Neither Member States nor private entities may force or coerce stateless persons into a nation or its workforce by any means. Examples of such coercion may include physical acts (such as forcible transfer), psychological manipulation (including threats of violence), or any other tactic which places an undue and unnatural pressure on stateless persons to relent;
      
   5. Member States shall not recruit nor import stateless persons as a means of artificially suppressing the wages, salaries, or other forms of worker compensation for naturalized and native citizens, and must create a legal framework to prevent private enterprises from doing so in turn;
      
      
      1. The legal framework must comply with the provisions already stipulated within the Convention.
   6. Stateless persons, regardless of their status of naturalization, shall receive the same workplace protections and benefits as are provided to any naturalized or native worker in the same economic sector;
      
   7. Stateless persons, regardless of their status of naturalization, shall be compensated for their work with no less than the standard level of compensation as would be provided to a native citizen for the same labour. This compensation may not be withheld for an excessive or unnatural length of time;
      
   8. Member States shall not revoke or deny any fundamental rights to a current or former stateless person should they become incapacitated or otherwise unable to work, nor if they are laid-off from their place of occupation. These include both physical complications such as injury and overexertion, and mental considerations including stress, depression, amnesia or any other form of occupational impairment.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs walks into the room, straightening his tie and shirt before carefully sitting on a wooden chair and pulling out a piece of paper he carried with him.

The World Assembly,

Observing the marginalization and exploitation of stateless persons through economic, social, and political means, regardless of subsequent naturalization;

Believing that the unique vulnerability of stateless persons to these issues necessitates that a basic level of protection and assistance be provided to such individuals under international law;

“Canadianers agrees with all of the above.

1. Hereby defines:
   
   
   1. “Stateless persons” as sapient beings and persons who have not achieved naturalization by any State, or have not been recognized by any of its relevant legal or immigration authorities;
   2. “Naturalization” as the integration of stateless persons within Member States and, having achieved relevant immigration or legal recognition, their recognition as citizens;
   3. “Importation” of stateless persons as the deliberate facilitation or transfer of stateless persons to a Member State on the part of the relevant government authority or private entity concerned within;

The part of the first subclause highlighted in red has a major loophole. While it intends to ensure birth-right citizens of the nation aren't considered Stateless, it inadvertently allows nations to claim someone is not Stateless purely because the legal system 'recognizes them'. We'd change it to something like 'are not considered a national of any State under the operation of its law;'. Of course, you don't have to word it exactly like that, but you should change it. Canadianers is fine with the second subclause. As for the third subclause, Canadianers believes “Importation” is not the right word for it. It makes it sound like the stateless persons are goods. We would change it to a word like ‘Transferring’, or ‘Admission’. Additionally, as we have read further into your document, keep in mind a nation could claim only ‘Importation’ falls into the pre-established definition, while ‘import’ does not.

Creates the World Assembly Statelessness Bureau (WASB) to monitor and assist stateless persons, with unconditional access to adjoining properties within the World Assembly Headquarters (WASBBRHQ) where deemed appropriate, in addition to any other relevant properties for the conduction of activities including, but not limited to:

Canadianers’ main concern here is the fact that ‘appropriate’ is subjective and not well-defined here, which could be exploited. It doesn’t mention what constitutes appropriate; we would change that depending on your intention. Much more importantly, however, we’ve found that 'but not limited to’ could allow the WASB to do literally anything. Lastly ‘relevant’ is too vague in our opinion which increases the aforementioned problem.

1. Supplying employment opportunities for any able-working stateless person within relevant committees or organizations resident within the WA;
2. Accommodating stateless persons with regularly maintained housing facilities in addition to recreational areas, accessible to areas of work;
3. Providing medical assistance including for disabilities, sickness, trauma, and any other circumstances warranting medical attention;
4. In cooperation with Member States, allowing for the necessary passage of stateless persons to subsequent naturalisation in accordance with the Convention;
5. Requires the WASB to maintain a registry of all participant stateless persons within the organization, in addition to an extended annual world census analysis on stateless persons more broadly, which shall include any relevant economic, political, cultural and social factors;
6. Receiving formal complaints from stateless and former stateless persons on perceived violations of the Convention by Member States of which shall undergo judicial review.

Canadianers finds major issues with the above. First of all, how does the WASB supply ‘employment’? Most jobs in the WA need specialized skills; while it's a great start, allowing nations to assist would make it much stronger. Second of all, the ‘Providing medical assistance’ clause fails to establish where this care will be given. If we assume it’s to be provided on WA territory, it would fail as the WA simply doesn’t have the jurisdiction. Third of all, the text does not specify where the ‘housing facilities’ will be situated, so we’ll assume it’s on WA territory, especially considering it’s to be accessible to areas of work. Subclause D attempts to mitigate this but we believe it doesn't eliminate the problem. The WA’s territory is not a nation and should not be the backbone of a refugee crisis. There's a better way to handle this (e.g, enticing nations to accept stateless persons). The fourth sub-clause has a subtle loophole; the ‘Convention’ mentioned in the text only applies to imported stateless persons. The problem with this is only the noun is defined but the verb isn’t so a nation can argue since stateless persons aren’t good they weren’t ‘importing’ them. The text is confusing at best and exploitable at worst. The fifth one has some minor errors; we’d recommend clarifying that the information won’t be forcibly extracted from the stateless persons. The last clause falls into the same mistake of referencing a Convention claiming to apply to all stateless persons when it only applies to ‘imported’ ones. and listing ‘judicial review’ without saying what it does.

Encourages Member States to provide guaranteed opportunities for employment to stateless persons. Upon receiving consent from any and all relevant individuals, Member States may import recruited stateless persons for the purposes of fulfilling those opportunities.

Canadianers personally dislikes hortatory clauses but it’s fine as trying to make this mandatory would be much worse.

Mandates that the following Convention be adopted for all processes involving stateless persons among all WA Member States:

1. Member States shall provide imported stateless persons with a level of protection under law that is adequate in ensuring that their fundamental rights are upheld;
   
2. The adequacy of these rights shall be on the same basis to that of ordinary citizens within Member States.
   
3. All stateless persons recruited and imported by Member States shall be provided with a reasonable and expedient process by which they may be naturalized, as determined to work best under the immigration system of the Member State in question;
   
4. Neither Member States nor private entities may force or coerce stateless persons into a nation or its workforce by any means. Examples of such coercion may include physical acts (such as forcible transfer), psychological manipulation (including threats of violence), or any other tactic which places an undue and unnatural pressure on stateless persons to relent;
   
5. Member States shall not recruit nor import stateless persons as a means of artificially suppressing the wages, salaries, or other forms of worker compensation for naturalized and native citizens, and must create a legal framework to prevent private enterprises from doing so in turn;
   
   
   1. The legal framework must comply with the provisions already stipulated within the Convention.

The first clause is fine, but we highlighted a specific part about it because it only deals with ‘imported stateless persons’ rather than ‘all processes’. Same thing regarding the first subclause. The second subclause needs commendation; ‘ordinary’ captures a key nuance many inexperienced drafters would have missed. Subclause C has major loopholes. While it intends to be mandatory, ‘they may be’ makes it optional. Additionally, ‘as determined’ doesn’t mention who determines. There is also a huge loophole; they must be recruited and imported, and even assuming imported is defined, what if a stateless person is recruited but not imported? Additionally, Canadianers finds ‘recruiting’ is already defined by ‘Importation’. The fourth subclause also has major issues. First, it mentions ‘private entities’. We agree with this, but believe it should be mentioned in the whole Convention, or else for every other subclause in the Convention governments could outsource tasks to private entities and claim it wasn’t them. The bigger issue is ‘Examples of such coercion may include…’. This implies that the following acts, which Canadianers believes to be great examples of coercion, may actually not be coercion. We’d change it to ‘shall include’. The fifth subclause reads well for us. The last clause is redundant as it’s basically a rephrasing of the first one.

Stateless persons, regardless of their status of naturalization, shall receive the same workplace protections and benefits as are provided to any naturalized or native worker in the same economic sector;

We agree with this but would put it in the Convention.

Stateless persons, regardless of their status of naturalization, shall be compensated for their work with no less than the standard level of compensation as would be provided to a native citizen for the same labour. This compensation may not be withheld for an excessive or unnatural length of time;

Member States shall not revoke or deny any fundamental rights to a current or former stateless person should they become incapacitated or otherwise unable to work, nor if they are laid-off from their place of occupation. These include both physical complications such as injury and overexertion, and mental considerations including stress, depression, amnesia or any other form of occupational impairment.

Again, we’d recommend putting this in the Convention. We like this resolution with the aforementioned changes. However, there is one more glaring flaw. There’s no enforcement mechanism. While making it binding international law already implies one, adding it would be appreciated. No other major flaws stand out to us at this time. Before I leave, we'd like to mention that Canadianders accidentally critiqued the first draft as we drafted our critique over the span of days. However, many of these errors still apply to your second draft.” The Minister of Foreign Affairs reads over the text again, nods, and then slowly stands up, pushing in his chair before leaving, reading over the paper again.

[ERAM MARE]

Against under all circumstances

[Aidenfieeld]

Again, thank you all for your comments!

Draft III has been posted, with the following changes:
- Modified the definition of stateless persons to the following: “Stateless persons” as sapient beings and persons who are not citizens and have not achieved naturalization by any State, or are not legally recognized as a resident of any state;
- Added a definition for "able-working" persons: "Able-working" persons as individuals who fully possess the necessary mental and physical capacities to effectively complete the tasks required of them in a given place of work. For this purpose, children and those of advanced age are not considered "able-working".
- Edited Clause II.b., so as to better make-clear the limitations of WASB-provided WA employment opportunities for stateless persons. It now reads like this: Providing employment opportunities, if available, to registered able-working stateless persons according to their qualifications within relevant committees and organizations of the WA, where durably feasible for all parties involved;
- Removed "but not limited to" from the end of Clause II.
- Updated the housing provision clause to include location and make clear that the WASB may provide housing for stateless persons that have been imported by member states. It now reads like this: Accommodating stateless persons with regularly maintained housing facilities accessible to areas of work, in addition to recreational areas, located on WA territory, or if necessary or desired, within Member States, provided that consent is given by the state in question. The WASB may cooperate with Member States to provide housing, including for stateless persons imported by members;
- Removed the word "imported" from Clause IV.a., to eliminate the implication that the stipulation applied only to imported stateless persons.
- Replaced "may be" with "are to be" in Clause IV.c.
- Removed a redundant subclause in the Convention.

Stateless people also include criminals in exile, as far as my logic says-Should WASB help them too?

"Criminal in exile" is a legal status set by the state which issued the sentence. Therefore, someone with this status would not fall under the proposal's current definition of a stateless person.

While it is agreeable that stateless individuals be treated with the same respect one would give another being, their is no incentive for the nations to accept or import them is they must be for all intents and purposes be treated like citizens despite not paying any taxes or otherwise providing for the state as a citizen would. Instead I propose that it be allowed to hire stateless at a reduced rate so long as you are also providing shelter, as a stateless in some states would not have the rights to hold property anyway.

I would argue that there absolutely are economic incentives for some states to accept them; if a state's labour force is shrinking, an influx of foreign labour can fill the gaps, thereby preventing a diminution of the state's economic capacities. Likewise, if a state wishes to grow their economic capacities at a faster rate than the rate of growth in the existing domestic labour force would allow, it would be valuable to supplement the existing labour force with foreign labour power. Also, I'm not sure why you think that imported stateless persons would not pay taxes? Maybe initially, when they have literally nothing to give, sure, but once they are employed and able to pay, why wouldn't they? It also depends on the tax system of the particular member state in question.

To your suggestion, even if this could be a good deal for stateless persons, it has the potenetial to be extremely harmful to other workers domestically, as it enables employers to use stateless persons as a pool of cheap excess labour that they can turn to as a means of suppressing the wages/salaries of citizen workers (who would have less leverage over employers to negotiate better compensation, since they would be more easily disposable). Perhaps you could argue that Clause IV.e. would prevent this, but I really just see the idea of intentionally paying stateless persons less as inherently contradictory to that end.

The part of the first subclause highlighted in red has a major loophole. While it intends to ensure birth-right citizens of the nation aren't considered Stateless, it inadvertently allows nations to claim someone is not Stateless purely because the legal system 'recognizes them'. We'd change it to something like 'are not considered a national of any State under the operation of its law;'. Of course, you don't have to word it exactly like that, but you should change it. Canadianers is fine with the second subclause. As for the third subclause, Canadianers believes “Importation” is not the right word for it. It makes it sound like the stateless persons are goods. We would change it to a word like ‘Transferring’, or ‘Admission’. Additionally, as we have read further into your document, keep in mind a nation could claim only ‘Importation’ falls into the pre-established definition, while ‘import’ does not.

Interesting point. The definition of stateless persons has been edited to instead refer to a lack of a legal residency status.

As for the use of the word "importation", I'll agree that it's far from ideal, but it is the one that most accurately describes the process, as it is ultimately an economic transaction that only happens to include a social element because of the involvement of sapient beings. Also, "import" is very obviously used in the same way as "importation" throughout the resolution, and any other reading would almost certainly be in bad faith.

Canadianers’ main concern here is the fact that ‘appropriate’ is subjective and not well-defined here, which could be exploited. It doesn’t mention what constitutes appropriate; we would change that depending on your intention. Much more importantly, however, we’ve found that 'but not limited to’ could allow the WASB to do literally anything. Lastly ‘relevant’ is too vague in our opinion which increases the aforementioned problem.

The bit about using the rest of the WA headquarters was addressed previously. Your second point is a good one, though; that has been removed.

Canadianers finds major issues with the above. First of all, how does the WASB supply ‘employment’? Most jobs in the WA need specialized skills; while it's a great start, allowing nations to assist would make it much stronger. Second of all, the ‘Providing medical assistance’ clause fails to establish where this care will be given. If we assume it’s to be provided on WA territory, it would fail as the WA simply doesn’t have the jurisdiction. Third of all, the text does not specify where the ‘housing facilities’ will be situated, so we’ll assume it’s on WA territory, especially considering it’s to be accessible to areas of work.

The last clause falls into the same mistake of referencing a Convention claiming to apply to all stateless persons when it only applies to ‘imported’ ones. and listing ‘judicial review’ without saying what it does.

The WA employment clause has been updated to hopefully alleviate some of those concerns. Likewise, the roles of the WASB and member states in providing housing has been expanded-upon, as have the location of housing and medical facilities.
I will push-back a little bit on your last two points, though: the only stipulation within the Convention where this loophole existed was the first, which was an oversight that has been removed. The rest of it (with the exception of those that are obviously only applicable to imported stateless persons) applies to all statless persons universally.

The first clause is fine, but we highlighted a specific part about it because it only deals with ‘imported stateless persons’ rather than ‘all processes’. Same thing regarding the first subclause. The second subclause needs commendation; ‘ordinary’ captures a key nuance many inexperienced drafters would have missed. Subclause C has major loopholes. While it intends to be mandatory, ‘they may be’ makes it optional. Additionally, ‘as determined’ doesn’t mention who determines. There is also a huge loophole; they must be recruited and imported, and even assuming imported is defined, what if a stateless person is recruited but not imported?

We agree with this, but believe it should be mentioned in the whole Convention, or else for every other subclause in the Convention governments could outsource tasks to private entities and claim it wasn’t them. The bigger issue is ‘Examples of such coercion may include…’. This implies that the following acts, which Canadianers believes to be great examples of coercion, may actually not be coercion. We’d change it to ‘shall include’. The fifth subclause reads well for us. The last clause is redundant as it’s basically a rephrasing of the first one.

Good catch. That has been fixed.
The point about "may be" is interesting. Grammatically, it's used to indicate something in the future, not that it's voluntary. But I understand that this could potentially cause confusion, so I have changed it to "are to be".
Mention of "recruited" has been removed.
I'm not sure how you came-up with that interpretation of the use of "may" in your point about the coercion clause. In that case, it's used to suggest that there can be other methods of coercion beyond the examples given, not that the ones that are given might somehow not be coercion. And that really isn't particularly ambiguous. Also, private entities are included throughout the Convention indirectly, as it requires that member states apply its stipulations to everything falling under their legal purview, as suggested by IV.a.'s language of "protection under the law", in order to safeguard fundamental rights. Laws apply to private entities, too.
The last point is a good one. That has been removed.

We agree with this but would put it in the Convention.
Again, we’d recommend putting this in the Convention.

Both of these are in the Convention; all of the subclauses within Clause IV are.

We like this resolution with the aforementioned changes. However, there is one more glaring flaw. There’s no enforcement mechanism. While making it binding international law already implies one, adding it would be appreciated. No other major flaws stand out to us at this time. Before I leave, we'd like to mention that Canadianders accidentally critiqued the first draft as we drafted our critique over the span of days. However, many of these errors still apply to your second draft.” The Minister of Foreign Affairs reads over the text again, nods, and then slowly stands up, pushing in his chair before leaving, reading over the paper again.

The enforcement mechanism is the ability of WASB judges to issue rulings on violations of the Convention. I'll agree that's not much, but let's be honest: there is absolutely no appetite for a strong enforcement mecahnism that could actually truly force member states to do things. Thank you very much for your extensive comments! Many of them were greatly helpful!
