Bill: Citizenship Act of 2834

Details

Submitted by[?]: Rutanian Elitist 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: May 2835

Description[?]:

Argumentation:

The REP is proposing this bill in order to prevent dangerous elements getting Rutanian citizenship. We do not wish to restrict severely the possibility of someone to get Rutanian citizenship but we believe that a basic test would filter people with criminal records and such unpleasant individuals to gain citizenship.

MessageWe at the PPR cannot and will not support this bill. We wonder how many Rutanian born citizens would pass even the most basic test?

Date22:16:10, October 17, 2009 CET
From Rutanian Elitist Party
ToDebating the Citizenship Act of 2834
MessageThis bill concerns only individuals who are not born of Rutanian parents i.e those who are applying for citizenship, not does who are citizens by birth.

Date22:20:51, October 17, 2009 CET
From People's Party of Rutania
ToDebating the Citizenship Act of 2834
MessageWe fully understood the original argument. We still wonder how many Rutanian born citizens would pass even the most basic test?

From Rutanian Elitist Party
ToDebating the Citizenship Act of 2834
MessageSince up to their 18th birthday very few Rutanian born citizens have severe criminal record 99.9% would pass.

MessageThis test, is a written examination, or merely a review of the applicant's credentials by the government?

Date07:03:14, October 18, 2009 CET
From Rutanian Elitist Party
ToDebating the Citizenship Act of 2834
MessageIt is only a review of the credentials by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

From People's Party of Rutania
ToDebating the Citizenship Act of 2834
MessageThe PPR humbly apologise to the REP, we understood the qualifying exam to be a written examination and not a review of credentials. We still cannot support this bill as this sort of legislation leads to the legislation the PPR fervently and admittedly, incorrectly, opposed above.

ToDebating the Citizenship Act of 2834
MessageWe accept the decision of the PPR and we also apologise for the unclear statements.
