Bill: An Act to Reform the National ID System
Details
Submitted by[?]: Liberaldemokratische Allianz
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 2665
Description[?]:
| For the sake of security, law enforcement, and immigration it may be wise to have a mandatory national ID card scheme but it should not be against the law to not have the card on one\'s person at all times. NOTE: If there is consensus in debate, the bill may be amended to read \"Citizens are issued with identity cards on a voluntary basis\" instead of the originally proposed \"All citizens are issued with identity cards but are not required to carry them\". |

| Message | Significantly better idea for the national identity cards, its fair to ask for the citizens of Hulstria to have an identity card for health and security reasons. But it will make it fairer if they don\'t get punished for something like going down to the shops in the morning with nothing but change in your pockets and are pulled up by the police for not carrying it. |
| Date | 01:34:04, November 13, 2008 CET | From | Liberal Party of Hulstria | To | Debating the An Act to Reform the National ID System |
| Message | The LPH would prefer \"Citizens are issued with identity cards on a voluntary basis\" that way official paperwork is easier for those with the card but we don\'t force them down people\'s throats. |

| Message | If they\'re not going to be required to carry them...what\'s the point in having them at all. |

| Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
