I'm saving my amended version of @Marcel Eðo Pairescu Tafial, UrGP 's bill here, for future reference and possible return.  Currently, the effects here are split up into two bills, and it would be fairly disastrous if the referendum portion didn't pass.  So this version is designed to avoid that problem.

---

THEREFORE, be it enacted that the following provision be added to el Lexhatx as subsubsection H.4.1.1:

QuoteThe total number of party seats is twenty.

FURTHERMORE, Org.IV.4, which currently reads:

Quote1. In addition to the seats apportioned between parties after a General Election, the Secretary of State shall assign one Cosa seat to any citizen who becomes eligible to vote after the most recent Election Deadline but before the dissolution of the Cosa, upon the request of such citizen, up to a maximum number as this Organic Law might provide. Any additional seat so assigned shall cease to exist should its holder vacate or be removed from the seat and shall not be subject to the procedures for filling vacancies in the Cosa, and shall also cease to exist upon the dissolution of the Cosa.. (sic)
2. The maximum number of seats that may be assigned to new citizens between general elections shall be 7.5% of the seats apportioned between parties, rounded up to a whole number of seats.

shall be struck from the law.

FURTHERMORE, Section 5 of Article IV, which currently reads:

QuoteEach person holding one or more seats is a representative known as a "Member of the Cosa" (MC). MCs may not be removed from office except by a two-thirds vote by the Cosa and approval by the King. An MC vacates his seats if he fails to vote on two consecutive Clarks, or if he resigns from office or dies. The seats of any MC who is removed or vacates shall be reassigned according to Section 4, above.

shall be renumbered as Section 4 and altered to instead read:

QuoteEach person holding one or more seats is a representative known as a "Member of the Cosa" (MC). MCs may not be removed from office except by a two-thirds vote by the Cosa and approval by the King. An MC vacates his seats if he fails to vote on two consecutive Clarks, or if he resigns from office or dies. The seats of any MC who is removed or vacates shall be reassigned according to Section 3, above.

FURTHERMORE, Section 6 of Article IV shall be renumbered as Section 5,

FURTHERMORE, Section 7 of Article IV shall be renumbered as Section 6,

FURTHERMORE, Section 8 of Article IV shall be renumbered as Section 7,

FURTHERMORE, Section 9 of Article IV shall be renumbered as Section 8,

FURTHERMORE, Section 10 of Article IV shall be renumbered as Section 9,

FURTHERMORE, Section 12 of Article IV shall be renumbered as Section 10,

FURTHERMORE, all the changes described in this bill shall only take effect after ratification by referendum and after a full calendar year has passed, and will otherwise be considered to be null and void.

Sir Iason, you are entitled to add to your achievement a belt, a helm, and a motto.  You may choose your own motto, yes.  Do you have one in mind?

Is what the law current says, but it doesn't say that if the Cunstaval is from the same province (which is an idea you support) that they can also become head of government in the province they are Cunstaval in.

Yes, it doesn't say that right now.  But the law doesn't have to give that permission and say, "You can make your cunstaval the head of government if you want."  Unless the law says they can't, provinces are allowed to do it.  So right now, it's permitted.  You're asking for a new restriction.

"A Cunstaval also, cannot be Cunstaval and head of government of the same province"
Is basically all I'm wanting to add to this for the moment.

So if I add this new restriction, I've got your vote for the bill?

Do you know why that is?

From my understanding, our rules of heraldry state that the use of purple is to be mildly discouraged. This likely stems from the fact that purple has traditionally been reserved for royalty.

I'm afraid I know very little about the Wiki, I don't know how to do that.

Darn, thanks anyway Danihel.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on January 17, 2026, 09:17:51 AMYou're kind of talking past me a bit, here.

Unless I'm mistaken, currently provinces are permitted to arrange their governments mostly how they please, including making the Cunstaval the head of any branch, right?  You're asking for these additional restrictions to be added on the provinces.

" No person shall be at the same time Cunstaval of one province and the leader of the provincial government of another province"
Is what the law current says, but it doesn't say that if the Cunstaval is from the same province (which is an idea you support) that they can also become head of government in the province they are Cunstaval in.

I'm only arguing that this loophole be closed as I have said before. I do think a larger look at Cunstavals might be something to look to in the future, but having it in law, to say that
"A Cunstaval also, cannot be Cunstaval and head of government of the same province"
Is basically all I'm wanting to add to this for the moment. As it is not stated in law that that can't be the case, but it is the case that a Cunstaval can't be a head of government in another province. So this addition would make the same principal apply across the board should one day a Cunstaval is appointed the serve in their home province.

So, the King, in what I still regard as an error of judgement, bestowed upon me the title of Knight Commander in the Order of the Nation. Well, I was totally dumbstruck by this proclamation, as I felt I was totally unworthy of such an honor (an opinion I'm sure most other Talossans share.) I messaged the King, even questioned his sanity, but he assured me I was worthy. If he says so, then so be it.
I therefore am asking this noble college if they will "knightify" my current coat of arms. I assume I may choose my own Latin motto.
