Bill: RP - Full Executive Powers and Governance By Decree Act

Details

Submitted by[?]: Haruzuterēchisuku Refonpātī

Status[?]: passed

Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Voting deadline: December 4307

Description[?]:

As our country remains in a State of Emergency, and conflict with other nations is still very much possible, we now ask that members of the Party give full powers to the Reichskanzler to rule by decree and unilaterally conduct economic, military, judicial and foreign policy without the need for further consultation. This will also prevent further fractionalising of the Party and maintain the unified approach we strive for.

Article 1 - Abolish the need to convene the Reichstag. Instead, it will only be used for a small number of state and ceremonial proposals and to hear annual petitions from senior members of the party for policy amendments. All other laws will be delivered by decree through the Reichskanzler's office. (OOC: this is represented by the article to reduce the number of proposals from 5 to just 1 - it cannot be 0 as 1 is the minimum allowed in the game, hence the idea to have annual petitions).

Article 2 - A series of special Party courts will be established to replace the current regional and national courts system. Verdicts will be handed down in the name of the Empress via a series of specially appointed judges who have sworn loyalty to the Reichskanzler and the Party.

Article 3 - All financial and budgetary matters should come under the direct control of the Reichskanzler assisted by his close financial advisors. This requires seizing all remaining private banking and financial institutions and having them immediately transferred to governmental control. All budgetary decisions will then be made directly through the Reichskanzler's office.

Article 4 - The Reichskanzler has the unilateral right to advise Her Imperial Majesty to declare war upon any nation without the need to consult other senior members of the party in a bid to provide a united front should conflict arise. Similarly, the Reichskanzler has the right to define the nation's foreign policy without consultation, although he or she may take advice from experts in international relations.

MessageMembers of the Party,

At a time when communists and Septemberists look to forge alliances and we battle to quell the hawkish behaviour of nations such as Istalia and Dorvik, who feel threatened by our rise on Dovani, we cannot tolerate or allow further fractionalising. That is why I ask loyal Party members to give me full and unadulterated powers to do what is right by this nation.

I have become tired of the endless battles in the Reichstag over the last few years - they have got in the way of what the Party should stand for: a united body to drive forward Hulstrian interests. The well documented spats that have found their way into the non-state-controlled press have served only one purpose and that is to encourage groups like the communists into believing they can exploit these differences.

By providing your Reichskanzler with these powers, you, Party members, will be take a great step forward for this nation and will be sending a clear and direct message to our enemies - we are as one, we are unified and we will never be defeated.

Thank you

Reichskanzler Leopold Nimitz

MessageMein Kanzler,

*with excessively polite irony* I applaud your wise decision that the best way to deal with dissent is to abolish the dissenters. This great principle must surely be taught in all the political education classes as the best way to govern a nation. Now, since you have made it clear we are no longer needed, I shall be brief and leave the Chamber, with my sincere congratulations.

Theophilus, Freiherr von Geraniengau

MessageParty Members,

Given that the World Congress is now also spreading malicious lies about the regime and are preparing for possible war against us (http://forum.particracy.net/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=7498&p=124988#p124988), it is more imperative than ever that this is passed into constitutional law.

Without further ado I move this to vote. Do you duty, Party members!

Reichskanzler Leopold Nimitz

Message*** Nimitz stands and looking enraged and starts shouting across the Chamber ***

So, it seems I will not be receiving all the support I need for this law enactment. What is wrong with you simpletons!

Do you not see our country is under attack from within and, almost inevitably, without? Are your trying to aid and abet our enemies?

I have already had the ineffective members of the Feudal Faction removed from this chamber... and I can quite easily extend that to include all of you too. If this bill is not passed I will forsake the unity cabinet I established three years ago and return to just my loyal and close supporters.

*** at this point armed military personnel are called into the chamber and ominously take up positions around the gathered party members. ***

These guards have been called to help me keep law and order in this chamber. do not worry unduly, they will only take action if I suspect treachery. As I said I will have unity whatever it takes.

Reichskanzler Leopold Nimitz

Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left.
