Everything above this comment has been queued up for Clarking - I suspect that's going to be it for this term, so I'm going ahead with numbering in the usual order (amendments, then bills, then nonbinding resolutions) so I can get a head start on preparing the PDF. Anything submitted later will simply get numbered out of order.

@Sir Lüc please Clark "The We Have a New-ish King Amendment" please. https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=5281.msg43771#msg43771

I approve.

Any other members of the CRL that can approve this bill?

No worries! I'll try to be clearer next time.

IMMIGRATION

---

Should the overdue revival of the TalossAssistant prove unsuccessful in increasing the success of immigration applications then we will need to consider alternative solutions. A review of InfoTeca data shows a steady rate of applications between January and May 2026 (in the low to high 20s) but the drop-off especially in the past three months has been in successful applications.

The concern, based on reviewing the data, is in retaining applicants and making them into successful citizens not in attracting applications. The Government has attempted to make a connection between its publication activity and immigration but that is not where the current problem lies. The PA will need to answer to voters why it took months to reactivate a program (at some urging by the Opposition) that will hopefully address the real immigration issue.

Update before the final three groupstage games:

(min-max)

Lüc 32-38
Glüc 31-36
Braneu 32-39
AD 30-35
þerxh 35-42
Danihel 34-41
Breneir 39-35

Ive also had a look at the implications for the overall tournament:
(min-max)

Lüc 32-138
Glüc 33-126
Braneu 34-135
AD 32-128
þerxh 35-145
Danihel 34-142
Breneir 32-133

My max score took a bit of a hit because my two predicted finalists ended up on the same side of the bracket. þerxh is currently ahead but needs to hope Portugal beats Colombia tonight or he'll face the same problem.

I apologize. You did ask me that before. Actually, I was trying to do it the way you said, but I misremembered and thought that you asked me to do it this way instead, so I did the wrong thing again!

Please just post a link to the Hopper thread, as I asked in the initial comment, rather than the full bill text. (I'd already pointed this out in January, but perhaps you forgot.) This version you posted doesn't even have a title, which means I have to go back and find what bill this is myself. I specifically ask for a link for the following reasons, rather than arbitrary whims:

• I can just click and go get the latest title and text;
• I can make sure any requirements for Clarking have been met;
• It aids future research by leaving a simple way to go read the full discussion;
• It doesn't clutter this thread, making sure I don't accidentally miss a comment because I've scrolled past it to avoid a wall of text.
