Yup. I suppose we didn't take anything offline, and maybe we should have, but I can confirm it's been patched as soon as possible.

Right, I hoped for some feedback (particularly from the Government, which is the centerpiece of the event), but we're gonna go with that minimal program for now, and leave open the floor after the rebuttal for further comments on the Speech, addresses on other matters, or for members who wish to debate bills in the Hopper.

We will attempt to conduct the State Opening on our own platform: the link will be https://riunetz.talossa.com/StateOpening.

Save the date: Sunday, October 25th, at 9 PM Central European / 8 PM British / 4 PM Eastern / 3 PM TDT-Central / 1 PM Western / 9 AM NZDT (of Monday 26th) - https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20261025T200000&p1=157&p2=158

Thanks for the recommendation.

I was wondering whether the Organic Law has already been translated to Talossan.

The 7 seats from the Independent Progressive are now vacant following ex-MC Tzaracomprada's resignation.

Following the Democracy Amendment's ratification, we're in a novel situation, so let's do this step by step. OrgLaw IV.3 states:

QuoteIn the case of vacant party seats occurring between elections, the Secretary of State shall inform the King and the leader of whatever party held the vacant seat.

I am doing so now: @King Txec and @Breneir Tzaracomprada

QuoteThe Secretary of State shall redistribute all of that party's seats among the remaining eligible candidates on that party's list in the same manner described in the second section, above. If no eligible candidate remains on that party's list, whether by vacation, ineligibility, or the operation of the maximum seats provision, the King may assign the seat according to his own best judgment, or leave it vacant.

By my reading there are neither any "remaining" nor "eligible" candidates, since the Independent Progressive's party list consisted of just S:r Tzaracomprada, and the next sentence states that "vacation" is one of the reason for ineligibility. So I can't automatically redistribute any seats, which is convenient, because we have previously determined that the previous section is partially inoperable (we don't have ordered party lists yet - not that it would have mattered in this specific case.)

So it falls to His Majesty to reassign the 7 seats according to His best judgment, before the Second Clark, or to leave them vacant.

Do we have a Zoom link for the State Opening yet?

Thanks

For those who dont know:

No, I can move it too, I just thought that "is this ready to take to the CRL?" meant "is this draft final or do you have further suggestions?"

I already dread having to translate that bill name into Talossan, should it get onto the ballot...
