WHEREAS The Organic Law has many provisions which would best be moved to statutory law, and
WHEREAS A simpler, clearer Organic Law would encourage more people to read it, which would result in a more knowledgeable citizenry, and
WHEREAS Section 4 of Article X is redundant given the public's "right to know" in the Fourth Covenant, and given that reporting on the votes of the Ziu are already a duty of the SoS according to Lexh.C.1.1, and
WHEREAS Section 7 is also redundant, because Section 5 says the same thing, and
THEREFORE Section 4 of Article X of the Organic Law, which currently reads;
is hereby repealed.
FURTHERMORE Section 7 of Article X of the Organic Law, which currently reads;
is hereby repealed.
The other sections of Article X are renumbered accordingly.
