Bill: BWA - Intellectual Advancement Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Burning Wall Assembly
Status[?]: passed
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: September 2191
Description[?]:
| We need to improve our library system excessively so that Selucians can have access to as much intellectual literature and media as possible. This will improve life quality of the people as a whole and nurture a quick-witted society. If we start now, I estimate the system should be up and running by the turn of the 23rd century. |
