Benito Provincial Hopper, 45th Cosa

[Istefan Perþonest]

As you wish to propose legislation, put it in the thread here.

[Istefan Perþonest]

Anybody have any legislative proposals for Benito?

A Sense of the Chancellery: Should we form an exploratory committee to rename the Province?

Vote Yea or Nay

If it passes, I will assign a chancellor to either start polling (or use the old polls) to determine a new name to be presented to the chancellery for a vote. We will then draft a constitutional amendment to rename the province as well as applicable statutory law to amend any existing statutes to either change the name of the province (where referenced) and any agencies created therein.

[Flip Molinar]

Yea

This is the Hopper, Flip
We'll start voting on 5/1/2013.

[Flip Molinar]

Duh of course! I was so eager.

[Istefan Perþonest]

So, again, anybody have any legislative proposals for Benito?

[Lüc da Schir]

I had one, but as I did not write it down, I don't remember it right now.

[Lüc da Schir]

I propose an Act to be discussed till the end of the month and to be voted on in the next Clark.

the Committee Extabilishing Act
WHEREAS, the Benitian Legislative Chancellery voted in favour of the formation of a committee to explore the possibility of renaming the Province;
WHEREAS, said resolution remains ignored by everyone, unless there are rules about how the committee is formed, to start working on it;
WHEREAS, I don't see why should we waste time and do not work instead of following the resolutions of our Legislative Chancellery;
THEREFORE the Legislative Chancellery of the Sovereign Province of Benito establishes that:

1. As decided by the Legislative Chancellery with six votes in favour and five abstentions, an exploratory committee is formed.
   
2. The aim of this committee is to find a reasonable alternative to the current name of our Province, Benito; a name that should be largely shared by the citizens.
   
3. The committee shall be formed by one member from each of the parties represented in the Chancellery. The Arvitieir Prima and the Maestro of Benito have the right to sit into the committee, but the final vote is to be taken by the members from the parties.
   
4. Once the name, or the list of names, is found, it will be presented by the members of the committee to the Legislative Chancellery. The Arvitieir Prima shall then call for a vote in the next available Clark. Furthermore, if the name will be approved with the absolute majority of the Chancellery (six votes out of eleven), a referendum will be held between the citizens of Benito in the next General Election.
   
5. If the referendum results in a majority of YES votes, the new name will be adopted the first day of the first Clark after the election.

FURTHERMORE, the names of the main offices of Benito (Maestro, Arvitieir, Chancellery) shall remain the same, and so the names of the Cantons will.

I propose yet another Amendment to be voted on in the next Clark.

the Arvitieir Prima 2.0 Act
WHEREAS, the office of Arvitieir Prima is not provided in the Constitution;
WHEREAS, the offices of Maestro, Viceré and Senator are, and so why the Arvitieir isn't?;
WHEREAS, I am sure that this office is more than important for Benito, and kudos to the current holder for his work;
THEREFORE the Legislative Chancellery of the Sovereign Province of Benito establishes that the Constitution of the Sovereign Province of Benito is amended to read, and a new section will be added between "El Representanteu Noval" and "Distribution of Power":

16. The Arviteir Prima (in English, Chief Umpire) shall serve as the nonpartisan presiding official of the Legislative Chancellery. The rulings and judgments of the Arviteir Prima in this role may be appealed to a vote of the members of the Chancellery.
17. The Arviteir Prima is in charge of making sure new Maestros are elected when the position is open.
18. The position of Arviteir Prima does not entitle the holder to a vote in the Chancellery, not even to break ties.
19. The Arviteir Prima shall provide advisory opinions to the Maestro and Chancellery upon request, and shall represent the province in national and provincial courts unless the Maestro appoints another representative.
20. The Arvitier Prima is appointed by the Maestro, and shall serve until the Maestro appoints another to the job.

FURTHERMORE, the numeration of the subsequent articles is modified accordingly.
FURTHER-FURTHERMORE, the Proclamations of the Maestro "Arvitieir Prima" (A Proclamation to Create an Arvitier Prima of Benito) and its amendment "Arvitieir Prima II" are now repealed and substituted by this amendment.
