Message | never. |
Date | 03:12:40, August 13, 2005 CET | From | Neo-Liberal Party | To | Debating the 299 Seats Act |
Message | We argued the case for reviewing the number of seats in the legislature in another bill but did not feel that the numbers proposed were suitable. The key to the number of seats is to ensure that it is in proportion to the population of Dolgar. 360 seats were proposed in the Electoral Reform Act and there is by law the necessiry to have between 75 and 750 seats. Perhaps 199 seats would be more appropriate given the size of our population. |

Message | I see nothing wrong with this. It's still going to be allocated proporationally. 299 seems like a good number. |

Random fact: Moderation will not approve a Cultural Protocol request within the first 48 hours of it being requested. This is in order to give other players a chance to query the proposed changes, if they wish to do so. Moderation may be approached for advice on a proposed change, but any advice proffered should always be understood under the provisio that no final decision will be made until at least 48 hours after the request has been formally submitted for approval. |
