Bill: Religous dress code (here we go again)
Details
Submitted by[?]: Hobrazian Peoples Party
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: July 2220
Description[?]:
| Article 1: After reviewing interesting ideas of other nations, HPP wanna create a dress code concerning employees in the state and for them who have a public function. They should no longer have the right to wear religous clothing. They represent the state and sould be totally neutral while doing their duty. As political independence is creved, as should religious independence. In all other cases, the choosing of clothes is completely voluntary, respecting other laws on this matter. Article 2: We believe that the choice of religion should be without economic influence and therefore we suggest that ministers of religion will come under the general workers law, where a minimum salary is decided by the parliament. Furthermore we would like to set a maximum salary, because we think that religious is spiritual, not materialistic. Thereby we encourage wealthy religions to spend money on charity etc. |
