Bill: Local Power Provision Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: AM Populist Social Democrats
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: April 2342
Description[?]:
| Whereas, Power delivery is totally unregulated with no subsidies to the poor, and Whereas, this is less awful than it might seem to us given the status of the grid ensuring retail competition for power delivery, but Whereas, we strongly prefer to see something done so that poor people will have power, but Whereas, We see it as highly unlikely to pass such a proposal on a national level, We hereby propose to put local governments in control of determining how power is delivered to their citizens, with the only limitation being that they may not permit a monopoly, whether private or governmental (several private companies in competition with each other being fine). |
Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change Energy regulation.
Old value:: Energy is provided by private companies which are not subject to any special regulations.
Current: Energy is provided by private companies but the prices they can charge are regulated.
Proposed: Energy provision is left to local governments.
