Hum!!! I sent you an email about that... I addition to the concern expressed in my email, I also see a potential for conflict of interest. I am not happy at all with this.

I just double-checked my e-mail and I got the OrgLaw from you and another e-mail about the OrgLaw. Nothing about Atatürk Province. Could you re-send? Sorry for the confusion, I email Marcus about this. A little bit of both, but still an internal matter within Ataturk Province. Once again, sorry to confuse you, my coments were meant for Marcus.

I believe this issue to be now resolved. There is clearly no conflict of interest (or potential for such conflict) in serving both as Prime Minister and as Premier of Ataturk. If this was the case, virtually every Talossan would be in conflict of interest, as most Talossans take on some dual role. I would suggest that any member of the Cosâ who also tooks seats in a provincial legislature would be in conflict of interest according to this logic. If we followed this line of thinking the whole nation of Talossa would cease to function and no province would be able to maintain a functioning legislature.
