Bill: Imperial Centralization Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Parti Imperial du Peuple (IA)
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: September 2516
Description[?]:
| The Emperor still wishes to somewhat more centralize the Government to help the Imperial Buracuracy manage it. He believes that if to much power is left to the local officals that corruption will spread rapidly as it did during the age of the Republic. As it currently stands most of the laws make it so that the laws are idffernet from state to state. I agree there are place were the Imperial government has no right to be but these areas it does to make sure that things are standerdized and make it easier for our people to live safely. |
