Bill: Conscription and Recruitment Act of 2611
Details
Submitted by[?]: Green Party of Aldegar
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: November 2611
Description[?]:
The current law forcing every adult to choose from national or civil service needs to be changed. Not only it is a militaristic programme, it shows that the state is incapable of fulfilling its needs in the military and governmental service in a democratic framework, or that there are simply too much needs for the two sectors. This bill proposes the minimisation of those sectors, starting by abolishing national conscription and recruitment. |

Current: All adults upon completion of schooling must serve either a term in the military or a lesser paid term of civilian national service, at their option.
