Description[?]:
| The DLP would like to change how the government works in regards to keeping national laws of other nations. Article 1 - Extradition Rules Section 1 - Any foreign country that claims a citizen or national within our nation has been accused of a crime within their state, with substantial evidence through an appropriate legal system, similar, if not, better than our own, we'll grant the country in question the legal right to allow us to extradite said citizen or national to the other country for further prosecution or to face punishment. Section 1 Clause - If however the country in question does not provide sufficient evidence to the crime, or their legal system is a barbaric or degraded version of our own, of which posses inhumane methods of providing legal rights, the Davostan DR court system can refuse to extradite the citizen or national on these grounds. Section 2 - Any migrant that has been in this nation for a good period of time (2 or more years) will hold similar rights in regards to extradition to a citizen or national, where if another country accuses the migrant of a crime, and provides substantial evidence through an appropriate legal system, similar if not better than our own, we'll grant country in question the legal right to allow us to extradite said migrant. Section 2 Clause - A migrant in question that does not actively provide for the state at the time of crime (within a time period of 2 years) or has not provided any form of work experience during their time of arrival. The state will allow extradition to process, unless the country in question has a poor record of human rights in regards to the legal system. Section 3 - Any migrant that has arrived in the nation for a short period of time (less than 1 year) will not hold similar rights to a migrant unless they actively provide for the country at this time. If the migrant in question has not provided for the country within the period of arrival, the state cannot provide any support for them and extradition laws will force them to be removed and sent back to the country in question. Section 3 Clause - If however the country in question has a poor record of human rights in regards to the legal system, the state can refuse to extradite the migrant. Article 2 - Legal Terms Extradition - Removing someone from the state for committing a crime against another person. Citizen or National - Person that has be born within the Davostan DR or applied and successfully claimed a citizenship.

| Message | Mr Speaker, Could the Rt. Hon. Minister please clarify what is meant by "proved [...] without any reasonable doubt"? Are we to take that this means that the person in question would first have had to be found guilty in absentia by a court in the nation in which the crime took place? I yield the floor. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, To clarify on the suggested "proved [...] without any reasonable doubt", if the criminal court system of another nation has found a citizen, national or otherwise immigrant to our nation of a crime against their state, and provided exclusive and justifiable reason to convict said person. We'll have no choice but to help the country in finding and extraditing the suspect to their nation for further prosecution. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, If the bill were to state clearly that the national government of Davostan reserves for itself the option of preventing an extradition and instead opting for a trial on our own soil if the legal process of the country in question is believed to be substandard, we would support it. I yield the floor. |
