Bill: Lex Moraitia de Securitatis Copias
Details
Submitted by[?]: Clara Aurora - COSIRA
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: October 4486
Description[?]:
We must be clear that the state security forces and bodies have to fulfill a wide variety of functions, and that an overexposure to many different tasks leads to a worse quality of services. The functions of the police and the army are not the same, and therefore, giving the army the power to function as a police force only results in lack of control and a worse capacity for response. We must have a police force in our nation that is responsible for the services required for citizens in matters of security and justice. The army, on the other hand, may be called in situations such as terrorist attacks or external threats, which is what they are prepared for. Irus Moraiti Orator of In Marea-Civis Sinistram |

Message | Senators, The Army and the Navy also play very distinct roles, and yet we implement conscription for both. The role of police conscription is to ensure that those that serve in law enforcement originate from within the communities which they serve, which is why we will continue to defend police conscription.

Message | Separation is not comparable in the different forces of our army than between the army itself and the police. The latter are under the control of the corresponding Ministry, and their functions are well differentiated and structured. The regulation of the army is more open in terms of its functions, but they are directed by its own authority, and the moment any high command decides to break with the regime established in our nation directing the army, they can do so because its members owe obedience to them. And that is the recipe for disaster. Our nation must be very clear that the police and the army must be well differentiated. It is not about their members originating from community, but about making a difference between both parts of our trained personnel. Irus Moraiti Orator of IMCS |
