“ A resolution to recognize international law and memoranda”
I’m wondering if something like this might be a bit more open. The suggestions so far in the thread focus on expressing opinions, but inevitably players will want to think a bit bigger than memorandums and pronounce more foundational legislation — laws, agreements, protocols etc.
Edit: “ A resolution to proclaim international law and memoranda” might be more accurate choice of words.

I think international law should remain the scope of the GA, not the SC. Declarations being a non-binding opinion of the SC is sufficient.

I disagree. The GA is about international law in the imaginary in-game universe, whereas the SC is about in-game actions. The SC should be able to introduce "binding" laws, though it would be left to the players themselves to enforce it.

That's not true at all. The SC has been used in the past, and it's intended in the future, to also recognise people in the RP community. It's not just the preserve of Gameplay.

You're right, but my point is that the GA is mostly RP while the SC is not, therefore the SC should be able to pass legislation that isn't RP (unlike the GA, which cannot). I did not phrase that well >.>

Hereby prohibits raider organizations from tag raiding for the purposes of advertising or promoting a WA proposal, a regional campaign, a dispatch, a nation, a region, or an organization not listed here.
The Security Council hereby gives its seal of approval to these organizations, as well as any future organizations, by the passage of this resolution.
Hereby discourages regional-government-supported recruitment of nations from regions that are neither a Feeder nor a Sinker.

I disagree, and so does the SC ruleset established by site staff. The Security Council is a fundamentally IC institution, in which even the most obviously OOCly motivated actions must be couched in roleplay for the purposes of passing law.

I think the idea is intriguing in that it could be a way to bring roleplay back to the SC after so many years of stagnation.
Are definitions the right way to go with that? Because if it's deliberately left open, it allows more freedom for people to use the category in ways we couldn't anticipate,

The real life UN passes international law all the time that it can't enforce. Sometimes they end up not being enforced, but other times they end up enforced by sanctions imposed by UN member nations, military action undertaken by international coalitions, etc. That could as easily happen in the SC. So I'd have to agree with those saying these resolutions should be called international law whether they have any enforcement mechanism or not. Let regions decide whether to enforce them.

These declarations should be anything but international law. They appear to be nothing more than broad statements of shared opinion. Otherwise you risk just becoming a Walmart brand GA with looser rules and no ability to enforce or do what the GA is already doing.
