(Dismissed) Green Lunar Act

Ceveztria Tue May 06, 2014 5:48 am

Greetings, delegates. This proposal pertains to a highly debated topic of developing green energy facilities on the surface of our moon. The technology would strictly be solar panels that would cover the surface of the illuminated side of the moon (with the suggestion of moon colonies that would be be accounted for). However, the Island Republic implores nations with lunar investments to consider the benefits of this project.

1) Unlimited amounts of green energy delivered in large quantities.

2) A push towards a greener future without fossil fuel or nuclear dependence.

3) A more diplomatic approach to lunar collaborations between nations and, hopefully, a step towards a more connected World Alliance.

4) Distribution of energy would be based on the percentage of investments among nations. In simpler terms, the more you invest = the more energy you receive.

In addition to this project, a new commission will be created to deal with all future endeavors regarding the moon:

1) Establishes the first World Alliance Moon Commission, de facto headed by a Secretary General from Trapatrical and headquartered in Saint Petersburg, Eurussia. It will ensure that the Moon, being the sole celestial body orbiting on Earth, shall be used for the benefit of all states and all peoples of the world preventing the Moon to become a source of international conflict.

2) Requires that the first World Alliance Moon Commission to ensure that the Moon is not being used for any military purposes; it's environment prevented from being altered; it's open for research purposes of all nations; it's sovereignty is not claimed by any single state or a group of states; and is never explored for any purpose without any explicit benefit to all states and all peoples of the world.

3) Insists that the World Alliance Moon Commission shall oversee the planning, development, and implementation of the Green Lunar Project.

Eurussia is interested to know more about the Green Lunar Project.

The first official debate term has begun, with an expiration at 00:00 GMT on May 9, 2014.
Parliament members are discouraged to voice their final vote during a debate term.

Once the debate period expires, the voting period will start immediately at 00:00 GMT on May 9, 2014. The voting period will last three days, as required by Article V of the latest World Alliance Constitution. This period will end on May 12, 2014 at 00:00 GMT.

A debate term may be renewed by one of two options: three parliament member requests along with approval from the Speaker or seven parliament member requests with approval from the President. Each proposed act may have a maximum of two debate term renewals.

The Speaker reserves the right to throw out any proposal deemed "not interesting" by the parliament by asking the parliament for a dismissal. This period may last 24 hours and if no parliament member objects, the proposal may be removed from the floor.

First point: me and Eurussia are still debating about the possibiltiy of such a kind of projects to be implemented in the MT or FT RP.

Second point: in any case, New Tarajan and Antanares have already built a solar array ring alla aroud the Earth exactly for this reason. Why it should be necessary to create another project if we have already one?

Is Ceveztria a member of Parliament. NOPE

The Speaker wishes to delay the debating and voting on of this issue after reviewing the constitution. If the Speaker does not return with a verdict in 48 hours with no objections from parliament members, the parliament may consider this act dismissed

Texania Tue May 06, 2014 8:18 am

These types of things need to be displayed by a parliament member.

For Eurussia, as the Secretary General, if a non-parliament member state asks us if they could submit a proposal before the Parliament, we always advise them to seek the support of a member state of parliament for their proposal to be submitted. But, seeing that such procedures only delays the contribution of other nations for issues to be discussed in Parliament, in our opinion, we should allow such nor do not prevent such at the same time.

Why? It allows more and more nations to share their ideas before the Parliament because at the end of the day, only Members of Parliament can vote on proposals submitted in Parliament. And if ever we allow non-member states to submit proposals in our legislature, we should just provide restrictions to them so as not to be unfair to the rights and privileges enjoyed by elected member states, such as non-member states can only submit but cannot be allowed to debate. And cannot vote of course!

Nevertheless, these keeps the activities and sharing of ideas in Parliament alive! :-)

Then what is the point of electing people to Parliament our current system is fine. It should only be MPs that can propose directly to Parliament. Of course of someone isnt in Parliament then they can ask a nation that is in Parliament to propose legislation.

Zackalantis Tue May 06, 2014 5:59 pm

This bill should be dismissed immediatley without debate or voting. The author of this bill is not a member of parliament.

i clearly remember EU stating to another nation who was not elected to parliament that if a non-member is to propose a pice of legislation to parliament then he/she may do so through a current memeber of parliament. not directly.

Ceveztria is free to propose a bill in parliament through another parliament member not independently. if we did allow independent proposals then why not just establish a general assembly instead of a parliament. there is a reason there were such extensive and detailed voting procedures followed.

The UKZ however commends the zeal of Ceveztria for proposing this bill.

Europe and Asia Tue May 06, 2014 7:06 pm

Ceveztria, you are suspended until the finalization of your multiple court cases. You are not allowed to be active in parliament until then.

This post is already open for eventual discussion about?

Yes, I am still torn on the matter of non-MP proposals. Perhaps someone could propose an act that would officially settle this.

As a more official measure, I will start the official voting session to dismiss this act. The period will last 24 hours from this point and if no one objects to having this act repealed, it will formally be dismissed from the parliament.

Europe and Asia Sat May 10, 2014 10:46 pm

As Chief Justice, I will clarify: only members of parliament can propose legislation.

Thank you for the clarification. Since that issue is settled, this act is formally dismissed on the grounds that only MPs can submit proposals and the author of this proposal is not a MP.
