Fellow Citizens,
We are currently discussing a new constitution. As the draft stands now, an election for Consul will be held within three months of the constitution being adopted.
The proclamation of the 23rd of July, the document that currently guides the governance of the Republic, requires that an election for Consul be held no later than the 23rd of January.
I propose suspending the election required by the proclamation, passing the constitution, and then holding an election.
This bill will make that happen.
Elections (delay) Act 2010
A bill to delay Consular elections until a new constitution is adopted.
1. Elections for the position of Consul are hereby suspended, pending the adoption of a new constitution of the Republic of Lavalon.
2. The Senate is required to make every effort to pass a new constitution before the 31st of March 2010.
3. If the Senate fails to adopt a constitution before the 31st of March 2010, an election for the position of Consul shall be held on the 17th of April 2010.
I commend the bill to the house.
