I don't really see anything structurally unsound in this measure, with the possible caveat of the "elimination through Orglaw amendment" issue.  That could be handled simply through the elimination of that line in the Orglaw as it stands.

Which might be a good idea anyhow, given that it might make things complicated if a new monarch is chosen (through WHATEVER system or reason) but the old king is "still on the books."

[EDIT, because it is tech week and I am slightly braindead]- Which this system would do upon further reading.  Guh, apologies.

Finance and Budget is probably another.

Perhaps a first step on this would be to see if we can't get a roster of people willing to serve on such subcommittees.  I can't help but think that it might wind up being a personnel issue in terms of getting people.

Again I would like to thank our esteemed colleague from Fiova.

It looks solid to me.

I think, in this case, that the exceptions that are being added do not fundamentally alter the bill.  But don't push too much further, otherwise I think you're wandering into "separate legislation" territory.

I see no issue with this one.

And, to check, with XPB's proxy for the purpose, Dien is the Opposition Leader?

Point noted, from the Senator from Vuode.

Individuals who are not Senators will please refrain from speaking on the floor of the chamber.

I'm free up until Friday, then I'm busy with my Sister-in-law's wedding for the next week.  Though not sure what role I play, since the State Opening is in the Cosa, yes?

Sorry, Mencei, but I'm impatient and paranoid about forgetting to vote.

Për to all bills.

GV, Fiova

Allow me to thank the Senator from Fiova for his assistance in this matter.

I am with Marcel on this.  Ostensibly, the houses are sovereign in their business, but that doesn't jive with the SoS/Clark system that we currently have.  There should be at least some differentiation between the Cosa and the Senats, but what is it aside from Senators not being able to primary sponsor spending bills?

The ability to separate them, and even perhaps divorce them from the Clark system altogether, is a valuable reform.  Remember, Madison wrote in the Federalist papers that Representatives and Senators would particularly be keen on doing a good and distinctive job as a way of protecting their privileges and prerogatives.  Something to keep in mind.

I'm not sure the bill is going to have the effect desired.  If it takes half the senators AND half the Cosa to move things into Committee, you're still coming up against the reading and engagement issue mentioned in the "whereas."
