OCC: This passed and now we have our first one

The head of government will have opening statements and then the largest party in opposition.

This bill will provide a forum for the opposition parties to address questions to the Prime Minster and/or other Ministers of State regarding government policy so that they can hold the government accountable. PMQs is a constitutional convention, and is governed by the following rules:

- The largest party in opposition may ask six questions every year. The second largest may ask three, and all other opposition parties may ask two.

- The parties in government may not ask their own questions, although they may ask questions in response to questions from the opposition.

- Questions may be asked to the Prime Minster or any other Minister.

- All questions asked by the opposition must be responded to in some way.

- If a question is addressed to the Prime Minster, the Prime Minster may either answer it personally or may delegate that responsibility to another Minister.

- If a question is addressed to a Minister, that Minister must answer it.

- The opposition member who asked the question will be given an opportunity to respond to the government's answer. However, he will not be allowed to respond with more questions if the quota has already been met.

Random fact: RP laws follow the same passing rules as in-game variable laws. Laws that are not of a constitutional nature require a simple majority "Yes" vote from active parties currently holding seats. Laws that are of a constitutional nature require a 2/3 majority "Yes" vote from active parties currently holding seats. RP laws may be abolished a simple majority vote this applies to ANY RP law.
