Bill: Shelter Reduction Bill (2508)
Details
Submitted by[?]: Normand Pluralist Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: July 2509
Description[?]:
| We are attempting once again to reduce the oppressive shelter building code of Sekowo. As we are drafting this bill, we take "private citizens" to mean "the general Sekowan public", as opposed to the specific individuals which may reside or work in that building. |
Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change Civil defence is the government's policy on providing shelters to be used in the event of attacks on major cities, mainly nuclear attacks and bombing.
Old value:: No new buildings may be constructed unless they feature provisions for civil defence.
Current: Local authorities are responsible for building and maintaining shelters.
Proposed: Every public building is required to feature provisions for civil defence and at least 50% of spaces must be allocated to private citizens.
