The Death- Part 2

Day 2,743, 02:58 • Published in Australia Australia • by Callumh123

Greetings Australia,

I'm going to try be terse for once as I have been writing all day for assignments I have been doing. This article was suppose to come out a week ago and has been idly sitting in my word documents for the length of time.

I decided to wait until the day of the election to outline my plan, which I hope for my sake is in line with the Ilene KHMC era;

It appears an effort has already been made to move our beleaguered and under utilized Senate to the forums which is a good first step, but more will be done this coming term.

I have updated this article slightly because of recent events and I am assured a spot as Congressmen (Senator) this month as the number one candidate for the KHMC Senate team, which is an honour I am undeserving of and will fight to ensure the leadership have not made a most terrible mistake.

I have plans to bring the Senate back to life this month, in fact I am making it my goal for the next couple of months. This is why I have rejected cabinet posts in Australian and abroad.

My first move will be to change the forum we are now calling home (which is here by the way).

Ilene Dover has made the admirable attempt to get people over there through her article 'The eAustralian forums'. But there is still much to be done.

The transparency of the Senate on the forum is as bad as the pm Senate board. No one outside of Senate knows what they are doing. I wouldn't have the slightest idea of what the current internal structure of the forum would be.

My proposal is to go back to the structure of the old forum. Have in forum laws and discussions, and vote on things for the CP to click buttons on. This will need to start with an overhaul of the Senate function on the forum.

I plan to work with Guagature and Gueneo to get this done and to start getting laws in the Senate for people to discuss. People I feel will want to get onto any sort of discussion so it would be a good chance to convert people.

I will be looking for Senators elected in the ongoing Senate election to help. If you are a current candidate who is likely to be elected, state below if you wish to get involved in getting the Senate on track.

My proposal is in the following steps:

1. Reform the Senate section of the forum so that the Senate is open to the public to witness, but allows functionality for secret debate if it is needed, and also a voting hall that the CP/Dictator needs to witness and to respect the decision by elected officials. Also set up a public discussion sub forum for those who are not senators to present or discuss laws or topics.

2. Create a simple constitution that outlines what the Senate's role is and how to conduct itself. Also to create the role of the Speaker.

3. Get Senate to agree on that, and then form a Senate Standing Order for specific rules on how discussion and votes are cast.

4. Elect a speaker who will uphold the constitution and SSO.

5. Begin drafting and debating laws in the Senate. This will be the most important part for Senators to contribute

6. Make sure the Senate is in good shape for the Senate coming in after that.

Please feel free to comment below with any concerns, criticism or points you would like to raise.
