Status[?]: defeated

Description[?]:
Mr. Speaker, The Christlich Partai is not fond of the current policy that local governance is handeled by a mayor single handidly. They say that man can only follow a single leader. That is, however, not practical, when every man and woman is tainted by sin. Therefore a group consensus is better option. The Christlich Partai proposes that municipal councils exercise mayoral powers. |

Message | Mr. Speaker, Local councils only add to the beaucracy that threatens to strangle effective government. By allowing the election of a single appointed Mayor, we believe that it keeps them more accountable than what could be accused of as a result of being a group failing to reach a consensus. Vereinigt Dorvik is therefore FOR the appointment of locally elected Mayors, who appoint their own staff. |
