Bill: The Third Great Devolutionary Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Liberal Progressives
Status[?]: defeated
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: June 4425
Description[?]:
| We of the Liberal Progressives believe local governments should do as much as possible, to allow for local differences to be well-represented and to take away power that unnecessarily lies with the central government. This bill is another attempt to do so. |
