@Ian Plätschisch, I am disappointed to see this news of your resigning as LCC party leader.
I too sincerely hope this is not indicative of a shift in the party's stance on the Talossa Shall Choose its King amendment which I also support.

The period for consideration by the Constable or King has now closed on Resolution 2020-12.
I note there has been no response from @Sir Alexandreu Davinescu (the responsible party since the office of Constable is vacant).
Therefore, Resolution 2020-12 is deemed approved.

Voting has now closed on Resolution 2020-12. It has passed with 8 votes in favor, 0 votes in opposition.

Pursuant to Article IV, Section 6 of the Florencian Constitution I, Breneir Itravilatx, Governor of Florencia, do hereby place my signature for Resolution 2020-12 as duly approved by a vote of the current session of the House of Shepherds.

I send this Resolution for consideration to our Regent since the office of Constable is currently vacant. @Sir Alexandreu Davinescu please advise on your consideration of this Resolution. The deadline for Constable Consideration is 9:00am TST, February 28, 2021. Should the Constable fail to issue an Approval or Veto of the Resolution it will be considered approved.

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN on February 02, 2021, 02:28:33 PM
Pursuant to section 4 of 55RZ12, and consequent upon the success of Option One, "an elected head of State" in the Ranked Choice Referendum, a majority of the Cabinet hereby offers the following proposal as the starting-point for debate. We hasten to emphasise that this proposal is designed to assuage the fears and doubts of Talossan monarchists as much as possible, while retaining the elective principle.

The proposal is to replace the current Organic Law II.3, namely

QuoteThe King of Talossa is King John I, until his demise, abdication, or removal from the throne. Should the King at any time renounce or lose his citizenship, that renunciation or loss shall be deemed to imply his abdication of the Throne. Upon the demise, abdication, or removal from the Throne of the King, the Uppermost Cort shall be a Council of Regency.

with the following:

Quote

• The King of Talossa shall be chosen by a National Conclave of all members of the Ziu, all members of the Cort Pü Inalt, and the heads of government of all provinces. Every member of the Conclave shall have one vote.
• The Conclave shall be chaired by the Senior Judge of the CpI, or in their absence the next available CpI judge in order of seniority, unless it decides differently. The Conclave shall assemble upon the 6th anniversary of a King acceding to the Throne, or at any time that there is no King.
• The candidate chosen by the conclave shall be approved by the nation in referendum, and then receive the title of "Heir Presumptive".
• Upon the demise, abdication, or removal from the Throne of the King, the Heir Presumptive shall swear an oath promising to protect and uphold the Organic Law of Talossa and the rights of all its citizens, and thereupon become King of Talossa. If there is no Heir Presumptive, the Uppermost Cort shall be a Council of Regency until an Heir Presumptive is chosen.
• Unless the King of Talossa is chosen as their own Heir Presumptive, they shall be deemed to have abdicated upon having served in that role for 7 years.

We aim to put this, or some other proposal to similar effect, to a vote during this Cosa.

Based on the published proposal I am inclined to believe the Seneschal that the Government has made a good faith attempt to implement the referendum result while accommodating the concerns of monarchists.
For that reason and the specific components of the published proposal (long term, retention of King official name, broad-based elective body, and the Heir Presumptive transitional arrangement) I am currently inclined to support it.

Resolution 2020-12

Whereas, the House of Shepherds recently learned of the passing of Art Verbotten, and

Whereas, Verbotten, who resided in the Florencia canton of Benito, declared the secession of the canton, citing the existence of a different Cestour culture and character in Florencia than in northern Benito, and

Whereas, a brief struggle ensured with opponents of secession, Florencia was then declared Talossa's sixth province on 1 September 1996/XVII, the date of the promulgation of Florencia's first constitution by Verbotten, and

Whereas, Verbotten then became Florencia's first Governor, and

Whereas, Art Verbotten can be considered the pivotal figure in the history of Florencia and is therefore a more than fitting recipient of the Order of Florencia.

Therefore, be it resolved, that:

The late Art Verbotten is posthumously enrolled into the Order of Florencia with immediate effect.

The period of review will close at 9:00AM TST on February 5th, 2021.

Seeing that 24 hours has passed without an objection, voting is terminated early for second consideration of Resolution 2020-10.
Resolution 2020-10 is approved by a vote of 8 votes in favor, 2 votes in opposition.

Article IV, Section 6 of the Florencian Constitution reads as follows concerning the approval of resolutions vetoed by the Constable:

QuoteIf the Constable disapprove a resolution presented by the Governor, then the former shall return it to the consideration of the Shepherds with his objections in writing: and if the same resolution should earn again at least twice as many affirmative votes as negative, not later than the seventeenth day following its return, the Governor shall close the question and promulgate the resolution forthwith, and it shall take effect then; or else he shall close the question and declare it failed, albeit not rejected.

I, Breneir Itravilatx, Governor of Florencia, do hereby note that Resolution 2020-10 has indeed been approved by more than twice as many affirmative votes as negative votes before the seventeenth day of being returned to the House of Shepherds.
Therefore, the veto is overturned. Resolution 2020-10 is promulgated with immediate effect.

Seeing that second consideration of Resolution 2020-10 has been voted on by all members of the House of Shepherds I make a request under Article IV, Section 3 of our province's Constitution that the voting period be terminated early.

If there is no objection, voting will close early at 6:00AM TST January 12th, 2021.

Is there objection to closing the voting period early?
