| Message | You need to highlight the amount needed to make such an RP bill void based on laws on RP laws. http://forum.particracy.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=6363. Also I would believe that order 4 and 5 are basically emergency powers based on in game rules under section 22(1)2, which means that this bill will have to be formatted in the two thirds majority format as the army will be granted emergency powers to act as the government |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
