Have you compared this to GA#25 "WA Counterterrorism Act" yet? How is this different to the WACTA?

World Assembly,

As Terrorist activity continuously grows, there has been an ever present need to defend the security of World Assembly Nations from these threats,

And whereas measures in place to defend these Nations are ineffective and inadequate, be it from:

A Nation's unwillingness to have or increase it's military and police budgets,
A Nation's economy not allowing for it to even consider increased said military and police budgets,
A Nation's unpreparedness in the matters of protecting itself and other Nation States.

Now therefore, to be enacted by this General Assembly of the World Assembly, are as follows:

Creation of the WTPO, or the World Terror Prevention Organization, which duties would include:
Detention of captured Terrorist Combatants.
Interrogation of Terrorist Combatants.
Locating Terrorist Organizations and alerting nearby nations of their location(s).
Investigating Nations possibly connected to Terrorist Organizations.
Investigating possible Terrorist activity.
Allocating funds to Nations in need of protection from eminent threats.
World Assembly Member Nations are required to have a small military and police force dedicated to help defend itself, or other nearby Nations, during or in prevention of terror attacks.
During a Terror attack, the Nation in question is required to use it's dedicated military and police forces to detain, if possible, and/or eliminate any terrorist threats and are to report to the WTPO.
Nations who are found to be aiding Terrorist Organizations, through direct or indirect means, should be considered a threat to all WA Member Nations and the World as a whole.
Allow for the WTPO to investigate possible threats in WA Nation States' Territory, and if necessary, investigate the Government of the Nation itself.
Allow for the WTPO to set up an office inside each WA Member State in order to monitor Terrorist Activities in its territory.
Create a Classification Directory for all Member Nations, ranging from:
Severe: Nations with this Classification are in immediate threat from Terrorist Organizations.

Will receive additional WTPO Investigators, receive additional funding from the WTPO, and are required to have constant communication with the WTPO.
Strong: Nations with this Classification are possibly in immediate threat from Terrorist Organizations.

Will receive additional WTPO investigators and receive additional funding from the WTPO.
Mild: Nations with this Classification are not in immediate threat but has had possible Terrorist Activity in the recent past.

Will receive no additional funding until reclassified higher on the Directory.
Low: Nations with this Classification are in no threat or has had any possible Terrorist Activity in the recent past.

Will receive no additional funding until reclassified higher on the Directory.


World Terror Prevention Organisation
A resolution to... hell if I know!
Category: Uncertain
Strength: Unknown

The General Assembly,

Cognizant that recent rises in terrorist activity have forced nations within this august body to take action to guard themselves from such activity,

Concerned, however, that certain nations are - whether due to a lack of funding, sheer unwillingness or negligence, or any other reason - unable to fully apply themselves towards stamping out such horrifying acts, and are occasionally state actors in terrorism also, even despite such actions being widely condemned, and

Concluding that further action needs to be taken if terrorism is to be dealt with once and for all,

Hereby:
  1. Forms the World Terror Prevention Organisation, hereinafter the WTPO, and tasks it with:
    1. Cooperating with individual nations and other international coalitions, in terms of both forces and intelligence, in order to help detain and interrogate terrorists;
    2. Alerting other WA members states as to the whereabouts of terrorist organisations and potential terrorist activity,
    3. Classifying all members states according to whether they are at little or no risk, are at imminent risk, or are currently at risk from terrorist organisations,
    4. Investigating threats by those who threaten acts of terror towards members, as well as those members who inexplicably insist on remaining state sponsors of terror, and
    5. Forcibly imposing the harshest punishments possible upon those nations who are known to be state sponsors of terror until they are deemed to lose that status, as the WTPO shall itself determine,
  2. Further to §1b, permits the WTPO to send out investigators and funding, as well as to set up offices to investigate terrorist activity, towards nations that are being or could otherwise be threatened by terrorist organisations; and to force constant communication with those nations that are currently being threatened by such organisations,
  3. Further to §2, mandates that all funding recieved by nations from the WTPO is used exclusively for anti-terrorist missions, and further reserves the right of forced communication with the WTPO towards those nations who abuse their funding or refuse to cooperate with the WTPO;
  4. Further orders all WA members states to create a military and/or police force dedicated to anti-terrorist operations, which shall be of adequate size to ensure safety for all potential targets of terrorism in the host nation and neighbouring members states (as the WTPO shall investigate and determine), and which shall both neutralise potential terror threats and report their status to the WTPO as soon as possible, and
  5. Requires all members states to provide regular training for those members of society, such as education and healthcare professionals, who may come into contact with those vulnerable to indoctrination into supporting and even engaging in terrorism.

So all of the main body of the Draft needs to be scrapped?

Also how can I talk about International Security if it's considered illegal to talk about Police and Military action... Counter Terrorism more precisely?

(OOC: General Assembly resolution 2 article 10 bans the WA from organising military or police forces to maintain neutrality in times of strife. The international security category requires boosting of these budgets. Thus, you may demand that member nations in the ‘severe’ category boost their defence forces, but you cannot state that reinforcements would come from elsewhere, as that would have to be facilitated by the WA.)
Hello! I’m a GAer and NS Roleplayer from the United Kingdom.
My pronouns are he/him.
Any posts that I make as GenSec will be clearly marked as such and OOC. Conversely, my IC ambassador in the General Assembly is Ambassador Fortier. I’m always happy to discuss ideas about proposals, particularly if grammar or wording are in issue. I am also Executive Deputy Minister for the WA Ministry of TNP.
Kenmoria is an illiberal yet democratic nation pursuing the goals of communism in a semi-effective fashion. It has a very broad diplomatic presence despite being economically developing, mainly to seek help in recovering from the effect of a recent civil war. Read the factbook here for more information; perhaps, I will eventually finish it.

Could it be written that the nations are required to organize the Military and Police forces themselves, or would that still fall under R2 A10?

Hmmm... another proposed rewrite? Take or disregard any part of this as you feel. I snuck in Clause 5 to stop this from becoming a huge and egregrious Committee-Only Rule violation.
World Terror Prevention Organisation
A resolution to... hell if I know!
Category: Uncertain
Strength: Unknown

The General Assembly,

Cognizant that recent rises in terrorist activity have forced nations within this august body to take action to guard themselves from such activity,

Concerned, however, that certain nations are - whether due to a lack of funding, sheer unwillingness or negligence, or any other reason - unable to fully apply themselves towards stamping out such horrifying acts, and are occasionally state actors in terrorism also, even despite such actions being widely condemned, and

Concluding that further action needs to be taken if terrorism is to be dealt with once and for all,

Hereby:
  1. Forms the World Terror Prevention Organisation, hereinafter the WTPO, and tasks it with:
    1. Cooperating with individual nations and other international coalitions, in terms of both forces and intelligence, in order to help detain and interrogate terrorists;
    2. Altering other WA members states as to the whereabouts of terrorist organisations and potential terrorist activity,
    3. Classifying all members states according to whether they are at little or no risk, are at imminent risk, or are currently at risk from terrorist organisations,
    4. Investigating threats by those who threaten acts of terror towards members, as well as those members who inexplicably insist on remaining state sponsors of terror, and
    5. Forcibly imposing the harshest punishments possible upon those nations who are known to be state sponsors of terror until they are deemed to lose that status, as the WTPO shall itself determine,
  2. Further to §1b, permits the WTPO to send out investigators and funding, as well as to set up offices to investigate terrorist activity, towards nations that are being or could otherwise be threatened by terrorist organisations; and to force constant communication with those nations that are currently being threatened by such organisations,
  3. Further to §2, mandates that all funding recieved by nations from the WTPO is used exclusively for anti-terrorist missions, and further reserves the right of forced communication with the WTPO towards those nations who abuse their funding or refuse to cooperate with the WTPO;
  4. Further orders all WA members states to create a military and/or police force dedicated to anti-terrorist operations, which shall be of adequate size to ensure safety for all potential targets of terrorism in the host nation and neighbouring members states (as the WTPO shall investigate and determine), and which shall both neutralise potential terror threats and report their status to the WTPO as soon as possible, and

World Terror Prevention Organisation
A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.
Category: International Security
Strength: Significant

The General Assembly,

Cognizant that recent rises in terrorist activity have forced nations within this august body to take action to guard themselves from such activity,

Concerned, however, that certain nations are - whether due to a lack of funding, sheer unwillingness or negligence, or any other reason - unable to fully apply themselves towards stamping out such horrifying acts, and are occasionally state actors in terrorism also, even despite such actions being widely condemned, and

Concluding that further action needs to be taken if terrorism is to be dealt with once and for all,

Hereby:
  1. Forms the World Terror Prevention Organisation, hereinafter the WTPO, and tasks it with:
    1. Cooperating with individual nations and other international coalitions, in terms of both forces and intelligence, in order to help detain and interrogate terrorists;
    2. Altering other WA members states as to the whereabouts of terrorist organisations and potential terrorist activity,
    3. Classifying all members states according to whether they are at little or no risk, are at imminent risk, or are currently at risk from terrorist organisations,
    4. Investigating threats by those who threaten acts of terror towards members, as well as those members who inexplicably insist on remaining state sponsors of terror, and
    5. Forcibly imposing the harshest punishments possible upon those nations who are known to be state sponsors of terror until they are deemed to lose that status, as the WTPO shall itself determine,
  2. Further to §1b, permits the WTPO to send out investigators and funding, as well as to set up offices to investigate terrorist activity, towards nations that are being or could otherwise be threatened by terrorist organisations; and to force constant communication with those nations that are currently being threatened by such organisations,
  3. Further to §2, mandates that all funding received by nations from the WTPO is used exclusively for anti-terrorist missions, and further reserves the right of forced communication with the WTPO towards those nations who abuse their funding or refuse to cooperate with the WTPO;
  4. Further orders all WA Member States to create a military and/or police force dedicated to anti-terrorist operations, which shall be of adequate size to ensure safety for all potential targets of terrorism in the host nation and neighbouring members states, shall they be requested by the neighboring member state and given permission to enter the States' territory, (as the WTPO shall investigate and determine), and which shall both neutralise potential terror threats and report their status to the WTPO as soon as possible;
  5. Requires all members states to provide regular training for those members of society, such as education and healthcare professionals, who may come into contact with those vulnerable to indoctrination into supporting and even engaging in terrorism, and
  6. Create a Classification Directory for all Member Nations, ranging from:

    1. Severe: Nations with this Classification are in immediate threat from Terrorist Organizations.

      Will receive additional WTPO Investigators, receive additional funding from the WTPO, and are required to have constant communication with the WTPO.
    2. Strong: Nations with this Classification are possibly in immediate threat from Terrorist Organizations.

      Will receive additional WTPO investigators and receive additional funding from the WTPO.
    3. Mild: Nations with this Classification are not in immediate threat but has had possible Terrorist Activity in the recent past.

      Will receive no additional funding or additional Police and Military forces until reclassified higher on the Directory.
    4. Low: Nations with this Classification are in no threat or has had any possible Terrorist Activity in the recent past.

      Will receive no additional funding or additional Police and Military forces until reclassified higher on the Directory.


I like the rewrite, it's more refined and less clunky than my original. However I want to also include the Classifications I listed, do you know if they are a problem to the legality of the proposal?

(OOC: I think the clarifications could be dealt with much more elegantly by requiring the WTPO to issue support in correlation with national terrorist threat, to allow for a more granulated and detailed level of investigation, but the clauses aren’t illegal from my viewpoint. Legislatively irritating perhaps, but not illegal.)

I too would like to go more in depth with the clarifications, but I lack the proper wording for it.
If you would like to give your suggestion for them I'd be happy to see it.

OOC
Regarding the latest redraft: In my opinion bit in '1.A' about WTPO forces helping to detain terrorists is still a contradiction of GAR#2.

Also, I think that clause 4 needs a re-write: As I read the current version, this requires every WA member nation to have adequate forces for dealing with terrorism in all of the adjacent WA members as well as at home even though those adjacent WA nations are under the same obligation themselves and quite probably aren't going to ask for this neighbour's help... and it could even be read as telling the members to "neutralise" terrorist threats in adjacent member nations without needing to get those neighbours' approval in advance for those operations! (Which, by the way, would contradict another section of GAR#2.)

"Further orders all WA Member States to create a military and/or police force dedicated to anti-terrorist operations, which shall be of adequate size to ensure safety for all potential targets of terrorism in the host nation and neighbouring members states, shall they be requested by the neighboring member state and given permission to enter the States' territory, (as the WTPO shall investigate and determine), and which shall both neutralise potential terror threats and report their status to the WTPO as soon as possible;"

It's the forces part, I think. The WA or any of it;s organizations cannot take part in military efforts.Heck, even the intelligence part is stretching it.

Article 1 section A; Potential Edit:
"Cooperating with individual nations and other international coalitions, in terms of ensuring both a Nation and International Coalitions' forces and intelligence services are kept in WTPO standards and are adequate to serve in any potential threat/situation, in order to help detain and interrogate terrorists;"
