Title: [REJECTED] The Making SoS Succession Easier Act
Post by: Breneir Tzaracomprada on September 14, 2024, 02:07:09 PM
Whereas, one problem that was mentioned in the past is the difficulty in finding successors for the position of SoS, and

Whereas, a past proposal made to address this problem ran into concerns that it reduced the control the SoS had to name a successor, and

Whereas, in the simple proposal below it is suggested to keep other members of the Chancery as "unofficial Deputy SoS's" but change the current rules so that they may be allowed to succeed the SoS on his or her leaving.

Therefore, the Ziu enacts the following amendment to Section 1.2.3 of el Lexhatx which currently reads as follows:

Quote1.2.3. Members of the Chancery are to be considered as if they were Deputy Secretary of State, without the ability to replace the Secretary should he become unavailable. Members may act in the name of the Secretary of State and perform official business as delegated to them by the Secretary. Once the requirements of M.2.1[r 8] above have been fulfilled, at least three members of the Chancery at any time shall have all the access required to carry out the Chancery's functions under this section.

Is amended to read as follows:

Quote1.2.3. Members of the Chancery are to be considered as if they were Deputy Secretary of State, with the ability to replace the Secretary should he become unavailable. Members may act in the name of the Secretary of State and perform official business as delegated to them by the Secretary. Once the requirements of M.2.1[r 8] above have been fulfilled, at least three members of the Chancery at any time shall have all the access required to carry out the Chancery's functions under this section.

@Sir Txec dal Nordselvă, UrB @Ian Plätschisch @Glüc da Dhi S.H.
Hello Mr. Secretary and CRL members, would one of you be able to move my bill to the CRL thread? It has passed the 10-day Hopper review period.

@Sir Lüc as Deputy or @Sir Txec dal Nordselvă, UrB as SoS would either of you be willing to move this to the CRL?

This should presumably read C.1.2.3 of el Lexhatx.

I have no further recommendations. To be honest the implication of this change isn't entirely clear to me. If office of the Secretary of State were to become vacant the appointment of a succesor would still have to go through the regular procedure. It's not clear to me how this would change things.
