Is there a method by which subdirectories may be established under ...>>Cézembre>>...? 

The purpose would be to organize types of discussion, such as l'Etats for official business posted for consideration, RAK as equivalent to The Hopper of the Ziu, CLO for the consideration of homestead requests by the Cézembre Land Office, CBS: Cézembre Bureau of Standards for measurement criteria, UCZ for the University of Cézembre etc.

The Cézembre Land Office will be adding features to this service from time to time with placement of granted homesteads, public works, and other points of interest.

There has been previous discussion https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=740.0 regarding the upcoming election of the Lord Warden.

The previous election https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=354.0 after my temporary appointment (for 1 Clark) was thought to seat you for the forseeable future, yet the Chancery insists that election needs to be conducted yet again after your seating for a single Cosa session.  It would be much more reasonable for the period of service to be adjusted based upon that previous election.

The question which has been posed in various ways is

@Ián Tamorán

Do you wish to remain Lord Warden, the representative of Cézembre to the Senäts of Talossa (which at the current time is a Kingdom)?

I believe the timetable for your declaration of such would need to take place by 14 May as per https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=738.0 to be in sync.

You appear to have been too busy to respond to discussion asked for in https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=737.0 nor any other post in this Cézembre forum since January 18, 2021, nor any other post in any forum since February 16, 2021

Be that as it may, you do need to respond at least within a month from today.

Since it has been determined that by statutes in the Cézembrean Adminstration Guide (CAG) A9 Lord Warden Election Act: "If there is one sole candidate for the position of Lord Warden at the start of the election, no election will be held and the sole candidate will be considered elected to the position."
And as Sénéchal, and not standing for this election (as I had previously when there was an election for Lord Warden), I would thus conduct the non-election (since Lord Warden cannot be appointed as per the Chancery regardless of intention of Cézembre and thus need to be elected in a non-election) should no other person decide to declare within that same timeframe until 14 May.

Should you choose to ignore declaration of intent somewhere in the Cézembre forum by 14 May, and should no other person declare intent to seek the position of Lord Warden somewhere in the Cézembre forum, then that position would be left vacant.

As Sénéchal, I cannot conduct an election for that same position, should it be due in the current election cycle, but I will stand for that position, should an election be required.  There may be others interested in standing for that position.  The question remains as to whether someone will accept appointment as the Conducting Officer as part of the CAG A8: The Sénéchal Elections Act to hold either a non-election election (for one standing candidate), or an actual election (for more than one standing candidate).

RAK - The Lord Warden Shall Post Votes in Public

Be it resolved that when there is Voting and Debate thread for a Clark where a Lord Warden takes part, that person shall post their votes in the appropriate thread of discussion within the Senäts

for the RAK
Party Registrations
Cézembre Party Pre-Registration with the Sénéchal and the Governor-General (Cunstaval):

Each party willing to run for the election will need to submit to the Sénéchal and the Governor-General (Cunstaval) the following information at least 24 hours before balloting day:

Their full Party Name
Their party Initials
Their 50 Word or less statement
Their party leader(s)
The URL of a party platform (optional)
A candidate list for seats (optional)

This information will be included on the Cézembre ballot. Write-in parties are not allowed, but the party of "self" with the name of the Citizen being the party shall be allowed. Parties that do not register at least 24 hours before balloting will not be able to receive seats.

Our King is on the RAK

Regarding the King - John by the Grace of God, King of Talossa and of all its Realms and Regions, King of Cézembre, Sovereign Lord and Protector of Péngöpäts and the New Falklands, Defender of the Faith, Leader of the Armed Forces, Viceroy of Hoxha and Vicar of Atatürk with the official Talossan name of Ian Lupul:

Currently the CAG reads:

Article 1. The Sovereign Province of Cézembre is an autonomous and self-governing member of the federal Talossan nation and pledges eternal allegiance to His Royal Majesty, and the Regipäts Talossan.

Proposed A14 additions to Article 1

Section 1

Cézembre is a constitutional Monarchy with a King (or, if female, Queen) as its head of State.

Section 2

The King is the symbolic head of the Cézembre. Cézembre democratically grants the King certain Royal Powers and duties as described in this CAG and in statute law. l'Etats may establish procedures for when the King fails to perform a duty.

Section 3

The King of Cézembre is King John I, until his demise, abdication, or removal from the throne. Should the King at any time renounce or lose his citizenship of Cézembre, 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, l'Etats will consider a new candidate.

Section 4

In dire circumstances, when the King is judged by competent medical authority to be incapable of executing his duties, or if he is convicted of violation of this CAG, treason, bribery, nonfeasance endangering the safety, order or good government of Cézembre, or other high crimes, Cézembre may remove the King from the Throne. l'Etats shall pronounce by a three-fourths vote, with the approval of  that the King is to be removed, and this pronouncement shall immediately be transmitted to the people for their verdict in a referendum. If a two-thirds majority of the people concur, the King is removed.

Section 5

The King may, at whim, appoint, replace, or remove a Regent (or a Council of Regency, which is considered equivalent to a Regent), who shall administer the government in the name of the King, and exercise all powers in the CAG or legally vested in the King, except the power to appoint or replace a Regent. l'Etats may by law remove or replace any appointed Regent, and if l'Etats removes a Regent appointed by the King, the King may not reappoint the same person Regent without the prior consent of the l'Etats.

Section 6

The King may grant titles of nobility and confer awards and decorations.

I introduce, as Sénéchal of Cézembre, with possible use by future administrations:

RAK = shortened form of the Breton raktresoù-lezenn, as a method to list proposed legislation, projet de loi, proxhet for the CAG ( CÉZEMBREAN ADMINISTRATION GUIDE )

To "put something on the RAK" will be to introduce items for discussion prior to posting and decision in sessions of l'Etats, similar to the hopper for the Ziu, and where some such RAK may rise to the level of referral by l'Etats for a poll of all Cézembreans.

Items of this type placed into https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?board=12.0 or similar at https://talossa.net/groups/citaxhienita-cezembre/ will use the preamble RAK until such time as forum discussion can be adjusted with a subdirectory for this purpose.

As per https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=740.msg5860#msg5860

Calling to order members of l'Etats
@Txosuè Éiric Rôibeardescù
@Ián Tamorán
@X. Pol Briga
@Ián S.G. Txaglh

Given the S:reu Tamorán is already serving as Lord Warden, and was recently elected, and should he wish to continue service, and should there be no other other candidates for that office; perhaps the other members l'Etats can endorse him to the populace, and thus our election will be conducted in public and by acclamation?   I freely give my endorsement in that regard, and look to see if S:reus Rôibeardescù and Txaglh will do so also in this thread.   We will await the timeframe of the 56th session of the Ziu to determine if there are any other candidates.

In this case, the implementation of any other system of voting for only one candidate would be moot.  The only things that may come ballot would be candidates for l'Etats, and referenda directed to the citizenry, which need not involve the Talossan Chancery if perhaps   @Amada Merþedes could add conducting the election to her duties as Moderator of this forum.

@Ián Tamorán

In regard to your consideration of http://www.talossa.ca/files/bills.php?cosa=55&bill=21

as it relates to the existing Organic Law
Article II: The King
Section 3

The 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. (54RZ28)

I was not aware that the King had abdicated, nor have I seen any formal process to remove him, only to remove this section of the Organic Law as a fait accompli - am I missing something?

@Txosuè Éiric Rôibeardescù
@Ián Tamorán
@X. Pol Briga
@Ián S.G. Txaglh

The third instance of this legislative session is called for 8-15 March 2021.  Hear Ye Hear Ye Hear Ye let all with business before l'Etats bring their business in detail to this thread. 

Some possible topics shall be:

1. Ongoing business of the CLO Cézembre Land Office

2. Welcoming of immigrants under Statute E.7.10

3. Potential identification documents (possibly last issued 2012)

4. Formation of a CBS Cézembre Bureau of Standards

5. General discussion of actions of the Ziu

It may also be appropriate to introduce the concept of Vote of Confidence into the affairs of l'Etats should there be a desire for change in direction or leadership independent of any different election timeframe of the Ziu.

I am sure my Talossan &/or French could stand improvement

My ID card appears to be seriously out of date!  Who do I need to contact in  the Civil Service?

TO THE HOPPER - DRAFT

Talossan Holiday (TBD): TO LOSE A LOUIS

Whereas a pint's a pound the world around (when using US volume) and,

Whereas there's an anecdote that a Louis was at one point defined by the price of a US pint of domestic draft beer at a bar run by Fritz von Buchholtz and was equivalent to 59 bence (now rounded up to 60), and

Whereas, many individuals could stand to have less body mass, even temporarily, and

Whereas, there's always a need for donated blood, typically taken as a pint, and

Whereas, a pint can be reintroduced carefully at a variety of fine establishments, thus

BE IT RESOLVED THAT (DATE) is TO LOSE A LOUIS DAY where Talossans are encouraged to lose one louis of weight and one louis of volume and donate blood and then replace it with a liquid refreshment of their choice.

I last did this on Veterans/Rememberance day, and plan to do it again on Groundhog Day so this will be still in the hopper, but perhaps we can find an appropriate date on the Talossan Calendar to introduce the concept.

To inform the formation of a Cézembre Bureau of Standards, what things do citizens desire to be measured, or to have formalized in discussion?

In the recent A13 Act to secure Homesteads on the Isle of Cézembre, the following was discussed

I have observed that there was proposed, recently voted, and if ratified, a fundamental change to the Organic Law of the Kingdom of Talossa (if it can even still be called that).

However, that legislation is in direct conflict with our CAG and Constitution as the person having their status redefined is The King, His Majesty Regeu Ian, of the House of Lupul ("King John"). by the Grace of God, King of Talossa and of all its Realms and Regions, King of Cézembre, Sovereign Lord and Protector of Pengöpäts and the New Falklands, Defender of the Faith, Leader of the Armed Forces, Viceroy of Hoxha and Vicar of Atatürk.

From the CAG: Chapter I - The State
Article 1. The Sovereign Province of Cézembre is an autonomous and self-governing member of the federal Talossan nation and pledges eternal allegiance to His Royal Majesty, and the Regipäts Talossan.

As Sénéchal, I PROCLAIM for Cézembre continue to recognize as King, His Majesty Regeu Ian, of the House of Lupul ("King John") as the head of state for Cézembre and to follow the CAG, and El Regipäts Talossan Organic Law that was in place at the time of my election. Should there be a new Sénéchal elected, they would have the opportunity to chart their own course.  I seek counter-signature by @C. M. Siervicül &/or @King John via @Sir Alexandreu Davinescu

from the CAG: Chapter III- Le Sénéchal
Article 11. Le Sénéchal shall be the elected leader of Cézembre. Le Sénéchal shall have the power to issue proclamations which have the force of law. These proclamations may be appealed or amended as regular laws. These proclamations may not act as acts of attainders or any activity prohibited by the Organic Law (with regards to Prime Dictats). These proclamations must be counter-signed by the Governor-General (or the King, in case of, by lack of appointment or by long-term absence, a Governor-General).

As noted, there are remedies, should this proclamation be counter-signed, for l'Etats and the citizens of Cézembre.  While I evince that the King shall still be recognized, opinions may differ.  A change to the Constitution of the Sovereign Province of Cézembre requires:

From the CAG: Chapter VIII- Amendments
Article 21. This Constitution may be altered by a resolution of two third or more of l'Etats, which must be passed into approval by a referendum of the people, attaining the majority of those who vote, and proclaimed by the Governor-General.

Since I shall not propose a resolution to amend, it may be proposed by the other current sitting members of l'Etats which currently include @Txosuè Éiric Rôibeardescù, and @Ián Tamorán, @Ián S.G. Txaglh, or future members of l'Etats.  Since I shall not vote to amend, it shall take a vote of all remaining members of l'Etats to forward such as a referendum to the persons (currently 21) that I can determine as of the most recent Census are citizens.  In such a case, due to the importance of this possible fundamental change, I would seek a proclamation that a vote would continue until such time that every citizen would vote Per, Non, or Austaneu.

@King John

@Sir Alexandreu Davinescu

For your consideration

An Act to secure Homesteads on the Isle of Cézembre, which has been affirmed within l'Etats, is attached

Discussion within l'Etats may be found at https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=668.0

A Cézembre book club is starting in the TalossaNET forum - anyone interested may join in.

https://talossa.net/groups/citaxhienita-cezembre/

Today is Landmark Day (3d Monday in January) commemorates all Talossan landmarks, including Grecian Delight (Grecian Delight Remembrance Day is observed on 19 January, the day that hallowed national landmark was destroyed by arson in 2010).  To establish Official Landmarks, those interested should utilize the auspices of The Ministry of the Interior which as of 2014 contains the Ministry of Home Affairs which in turn oversees the registration of national Landmarks.

Be sure to consider being in the first group to establish your own personal landmark via information contained in the thread Independence Day Gift from Cézembre

While a claim can be requested at any time, those who choose to do so prior to the adoption of An Act to secure Homesteads on the Isle of Cézembre will be added to an appendix of the original legislation, should it be adopted.  A vote is scheduled to take place prior to Squirrel Appreciation Day.

@Txosuè Éiric Rôibeardescù
@Ián Tamorán
@X. Pol Briga
@Ián S.G. Txaglh
For your attention for vote and or amendment and vote prior to Squirrel Appreciation Day 21 January
And for comment by any other person as input to these elected officials, the following legislation is proposed:

A13 An Act to secure Homesteads on the Isle of Cézembre

Section 1: Be it enacted by the l'Etats de Cézembre assembled, That any person who is of Talossan or Berber heritage, or who has arrived at the age of twenty-one eighteen years, and is a citizen of Talossa, or who shall have filed their declaration of intention to become such, as required by the naturalization laws of the Kingdom of Talossa, and who has never borne arms against the Kingdom of Cézembre or the Kingdom of Talossa or given aid and comfort to its enemies, shall, from and after Squirrel Appreciation Day, the twenty-first of January, two thousand and twenty-one, be entitled to a virtual area of three meters by three meters (hereinafter the "Core") as defined be three words as described at https://what3words.com/about-us/, in either the English or French Language, plus the eight 3m^2 areas immediately adjacent the core (hereinafter the core plus the additional 8 areas are the "Site"), from lands in Canton Zone Interdite, upon which said person has filed a written claim via the preferred form https://forms.gle/S4Ug6URD76CJk6jM8  or in the thread http://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=636.msg5014#msg5014, or both.  Any claims made only on the form will be be identified to appropriate threads for senior claim reference while keeping any personal contact information related to the claim confidential. The three words of the Core will be used to identify the Site area.  An area of 16 3m^2 areas surrounding a claim are held as an Easement for egress (which may be shared between Sites). Exceptions to the Site area and Easement include when all senior claims established by date accept a junior claim that would otherwise impinge on one or more senior claims or easements, such that egress to each Site is preserved and a written distribution of 3m^2 areas are ascribed to specific Site claims such that no Site shall have more than nine 3m^2 areas, but may have less. As Cézembre has ready access to the sea, the sea in turn may be used as an Easement for egress.

Section 2. And be it further enacted, That the person applying for the benefit of this act shall, upon application to the register of the Cézembre Land Office [CLO] in which he or she is about to make such entry, make affidavit before the said register or receiver that he or she is twenty-one eighteen years or more of age, or shall have performed service in the army or navy of the Talossa, and that he has never borne arms against the Government of the the Kingdom of Cézembre or the Kingdom of Talossa or given aid and comfort to its enemies, and that such application is made for his or her exclusive use and benefit, and that said entry is made for the purpose of virtual settlement or occupancy, and not either directly or indirectly for the use or benefit of any other person or persons whomsoever; and upon filing the said affidavit with the register or receiver; Provided, however, That no certificate shall be given or patent issued therefor until the expiration of three months from the date of such entry ; and if, at the expiration of such time, or at any time within two years thereafter, the person making such entry ; or, if he or she be dead, their heirs or devisee; shall. prove by two credible witnesses that he, she, or they have virtually settled or occupied the same for the term of three months immediately succeeding the time of filing the affidavit aforesaid, and shall make affidavit that no part of said land has been alienated, and that he or has borne rue allegiance to Kingdom of Cézembre and the Kingdom of Talossa ; then, in such case, he, she, or they, if at that time a citizen of the Kingdom of Cézembre and/or the Kingdom of Talossa, shall be entitled to a patent, as in other cases provided for by law.

Section 3. And be it further enacted, That the register of the Cézembre land office shall note all such applications on the tract books and plats of that office, and keep a register of all such entries, together with the proof upon which they have been founded.

Section 4. And be it further enacted, That no lands acquired under the provisions of this act shall in any event become liable to the satisfaction of any debt or debts contracted prior to the issuing of the patent therefor, nor at any time in the future except in virual exchange within the context of the Kingdom of Talossa and the Kingdom of Cézembre.

Section 5. And be it further enacted, That if, at any time after the filing of the affidavit, as required in the second section of this act, and before the expiration of the three months aforesaid, it shall be proven, after due notice to the settler, to the satisfaction of the register of the land office, that the person having filed such affidavit shall have actually changed his or her residence, or abandoned the said land for more than six months at any time, then and in that event the land so entered shall revert to Cézembre.

Section 6. And be it further enacted, That no individual shall be permitted to acquire title to more than one core area under the provisions of this act; and that the Commissioner of the Cézembre Land Office is hereby required to prepare and issue such rules and regulations, consistent with this act, as shall be necessary and proper to carry its provisions into effect: Provided, That nothing contained in this act shall be so construed as to impair or interfere in any manner whatever with existing preemption rights : And provided, further, That all persons who may have filed their applications for a preemption right prior to the passage of this act, shall be entitled to all privileges of this act: Provided, further, That no person who has served, or may hereafter serve, for a period of not less than fourteen days in the army or navy of the Kingdom of Talossa and/or the Kingdom of Cézembre, either regular or volunteer, under the laws thereof, during the existence of an actual war, domestic or foreign, shall be deprived of the benefits of this act on account of not having attained the age of twenty-one eighteen years.

Section 7.  There shall be an original list of claims appended to this act as selected prior to Landmark Day - 18 January 2021 which is also Martin Luther King day in the USA, and is the day before Remembrance Day.  Claims after that date will be appended to a list maintained by the CLO and shall be subject to the same rules of origination and easement.  The public list shall mention only the name making the claim in Canton Interdite, the three words of the claim (in English or French or both) as placed within a directing URL, and any adjustments to site areas or easements previously agreed in writing by senior claims.  The CLO shall maintain a private list of contact information (to be used by no other entity and no other purpose) for the issuance of certificates to claimants and other business related to management of the claims, sites, easements, and relationship to these lands in Canton Zone Intredite with . Cézembre government lands and appurtenances shall be in the Canton Zone Autorisée.  Should the system What3Words cease, these claims will revert to other geographic coordinate definitions as can be determined by coordinate conversion.
