I think I could hook you up with some sandwiches

Is anyone currently the M3? If so, we will need them to certify to the Assembly that they are ready to conduct the Senate election. If not, we either need to find one or tell the Chancery that it needs to conduct the election for us.

I intend to stand for reelection.

I just remembered that you can get a count of everyone who is granted citizenship by looking in the database. If you want to see who applied, just look at the list of applications. I generally tend to avoid issuing bureaucratic reports when doing so would more hassle than it's worth. This seems to be a really important issue for you, but I don't understand what you think it would accomplish. Everything is right there already.

The cabinet is currently discussing ad campaigns. According to my research, we would pay somewhere in the ballpark of $1-$2 per click, which seems pretty pricey in my personal opinion.

With respect to immigration statistics, I am not sure how useful they would really be. Seems like someone would have to spend a few hours combing through the past years of data to reach the conclusion "it's not going great," which we already know.

Please Clark the "It's The Immigration, Stupid" Act

I will not be supporting this bill in its current form. I like the idea, but not when it is combined with getting rid of the Organic requirement of 200 Cosa seats.

I am sorry I did not post in this thread earlier; I know I made comments elsewhere but apparently not here.

OK, I have made the update.

I admit that I have not kept up with the changes to the Hopper/CRL requirements as closely as I should have; will this bill be eligible for the February Clark?

I was thinking that STUFF would be in charge of social media while Technology would be in charge of the websites. Making Technology only be responsible for the backend seems like not enough, unless I am underestimating how much work it is.

WHEREAS it has been more than a fortnight since Mic'haglh Autófil first posted on Wittenberg, following his introduction to the citizens of the Kingdom by officers of the Interior Ministry, and

WHEREAS he has in that time demonstrated an active, genuine, and longstanding interest in Talossan life, culture, and language, and

WHEREAS he desires citizenship in the Kingdom of Talossa, and

WHEREAS by all indications it appears that he would be a loyal and dedicated citizen, and a credit to this nation if he obtains the grant of citizenship he requests, and


THEREFORE I, Ian Plätschisch, a citizen in good standing of the Province of Maritiimi-Maxhestic and of the Kingdom of Talossa, do by these presents petition the Secretary of State Txec dal Nordselva to issue a grant of citizenship to Mic'haglh Autófil, as specified by law.


Petition submitted today, the 23rd day of January, 2022/XLII.

I have made the proposed changes. I also split the "Ministry of Technology" off from STUFF, so tell me what you think. This would bring the cabinet to nine people, which seems very large. I am thinking it would be best to fold Defense into Culture, given that Culture is all we could possibly use it for.

I do think we need to retain a Ministry which is responsible for internally-focused initiatives - but that might mean a (full or partial) amalgamation with Culture?

That sounds like a good idea to me. I am not sure that we need to add all this stuff to the Culture statutes though, given all our apprehension about over-legislating everyone.

Okay. So let's look at the current Government's agreed priorities for the Interior Ministry this term:

Quote
Charitable causes. Charity is not only a moral obligation on us as human beings, but it is an excellent way to increase awareness of Talossa in the outside world. We work with the Culture Ministry to raise funds for charity through games, tournaments and quizzes, paying particular attention to the Cestoûr population of the Greater Talossan Area and the nearby Milwaukee region..
La C'hronica. We will revive the monthly Government newsletter, emailed to all citizens, informing them of recent Talossan events and issues.
New Citizens' Information Packet. Quite often new or prospective citizens don't even know what to do in Talossa. We will create a packet of information which explains what they need to know. We will explore bringing back the old tradition of an "open-book civics test" on this material, as a prerequisite for getting an ID Card.
Restart the TalossAssistant Programme.

Obviously 3 and 4 would be Immigration, and the first 1 is part of the "GTA relations" section which you've suggested we don't need any more. With your suggested reforms, who would be in charge of La C'hronica, and other Government-citizen communications? Also, who would design/issue ID cards?

La C'hronica seems like it could be handled by STUFF. As for charity and ID cards, I don't have a great idea. I'm not tied to getting rid of Interior, but I feel like we could probably find someone to do those things without an entire Ministry.
