This proposal has been filed to the General Assembly Global Disarmament Board.
NOTE: at 0028 BST on the 27th of July 2021, this proposal reached quorum with The Chuck's approval, the 53rd all told.
NOTE 2: at 1837 BST on the 6th of August 2021, this proposal won its 106th approval - double the number required for quorum - from Tomisburg.Character count: 1,931Alexander Smith, Tinhamptonian Delegate-Ambassador to the World Assembly: Eighteen Terran years ago, "United Nations Peace Prize" by Pax Romantica was defeated after receiving 5,672 votes in favour and 8,542 votes against - almost 40% support. Sixteen Terran years ago, "UN Peace prize" by the Republic of Freedonia was defeated after receiving 8,063 votes in favour to 8,811 votes against - almost 48% support. Thirteen Terran years ago, the World Assembly was created and no such proposal has had its day at vote since. Our delegation believes a resolution to ensure that those who have contributed greatly to intermultiversal peace are rewarded is long overdue.
Word count: 308
Lydia Anderson, Assistant to the Delegate-Ambassador: I was told that the General Accounting Office could not afford anything more expensive than silver.
OOC:
- Yes, I am a cultural imperialist. Why do you ask? =p
- Regarding Article c, refer to Franklin D Roosevelt's gold seizures.
- Article d was added primarily to avoid a committee-only rule violation. Refer to Article 2 of the RLUN's Declaration on Measures to Eliminate International Terrorism; see also Antonio Gutierres' call for an international ceasefire, supported by 171 countries and the EU.
- Article d's "not necessary" carveout reflects the Arrellesscee's clarification that Gutierres' ceasefire was not to "apply to military operations against the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as Da’esh), Al Qaeda and Al Nusra Front (ANF), and all other individuals, groups, undertakings and entities associated with Al Qaeda or ISIL, and other terrorist groups."

World Assembly Peace Prize
A resolution to slash worldwide military spending.Category: Global DisarmamentStrength: MildProposed by: Tinhampton
Whereas all sapient rights are put in danger wherever unnecessary armed conflict occurs, the General Assembly hereby:
- establishes the World Assembly Peace Prize, hereinafter the Prize,
- tasks the WA Commission on Human Rights with:
- receiving nominations for the Prize from anyone who works as a head of state or government, legislator, or professor in any member state, in addition to any leaders of member state delegations to the World Assembly; and disregarding nominations with the effect of such individuals nominating themselves, their co-workers or their employer for the Prize,
- awarding the Prize each year to that person or group of people resident in any member state who has been nominated in accordance with Article b(i),
- basing its decision to award the Prize to any given person or group solely on whether, in its view, they have demonstrably contributed more than any other such person or group in the previous year to the resolution, without violence and with respect for all sapient rights protected by international law, of major conflicts between and within nations which involved or could have realistically involved large-scale acts of violence, and
- rewarding (each of) the winner(s) of the Prize in each year with a medallion containing one ounce of 99.9% pure silver and of one-and-a-half inch diameter, which shall have on its obverse the words "WA PEACE PRIZE - WITH PEACE COMES FREEDOM" surrounding the logo of the World Assembly, and on its reverse nothing,
- forbids members from confiscating any rewards bestowed upon Prize winners under Article b(iv) for any reason not enshrined by prior and standing international law, and
- encourages all members to refrain from organised armed conflict which is not necessary to prevent practices (such as terrorism, genocide, and other crimes against humanity) that threaten the achievement of all sapient rights.

A redraft which will contain more substantiative provisions, while retaining the World Assembly Peace Prize itself, will be published in the coming days. I am pleased to have worked with several highly-esteemed General Assembly authors on the upcoming new proposal.

"You're joking... not ANOTHER ONE!? Oh I can't stand this, there is too much politics going on at the moment."
OOC: In all seriousness (and if you didn't get that reference), there's no point in trying again. 54%-46% feels like a pretty clear margin to me; there's no point in wasting more of the GA's time. Redraft all you want, but in all honesty I fail to see how this can be changed to a point where it is worthy of re-submission.

That is an incredibly tight margin by WA standards.
