Bill: Citizenship Policy Bill

Details

Submitted by[?]: Silly Hats Party

Status[?]: defeated

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 2587

Description[?]:

A proposal to change the current Laws pertaining to the granting of citizenship.

Laws on nationality would remain the same, and so legislature still requires an earning of the right to become a citizen. Only nationality and citizenship would be considered the same - one comes with the other, after a test.

Therefore, in this proposal, Citizenship would be earnt, because Nationality is earnt.

MessageMalivia Left would not support this proposal. Citizenship should only be granted to those who are willing to integrate into Malivian society, and this can only be proven by a simply examination.

MessageOOC: When I first came to Malivia anyone could claim nationality, we would take all refugees, there were no citizenship requirements....
IC: Citizenship is earned, not given.

ToDebating the Citizenship Policy Bill
MessageCitizenship tests for everyone would mean that under current legislature, immigrants would have to pass two tests: one for nationality and one for citizenship.

The process would be simpler in the eyes of the Social Democrats if Citizenship was granted to all nationals, and the current law pertaining to nationality, that: Anyone receives nationality but immigrants must pass a test to gain nationality, remained unchanged.

It means that a test would have to be sat for any immigrants, but natural born Malivians would not need to pass an exam. This examination would show whether immigrants are willing to integrate into Malivian society, defeating the purpose of the citizenship exam in Malivia Left's argument.
