Opening Remarks and Introductions - Comità Rexhital sür l'Inmigraziun

[King Txec]

Welcome to the members of the new Comità Rexhital! I would like to start off by suggesting that we adopt some norms as part of our work. I propose the following:

• Respect and trust: Treat each other with respect, assume positive intent, and foster a trusting environment.
  
• Open Communication: Encourage open and honest communication, sharing thoughts and ideas freely.
  
• Follow the Agenda: Stay focused on the topic at hand and avoid veering off into unrelated discussions
• Accountability: Be responsible for your actions and commitments, and follow through on assigned tasks

Once we are agreed on the norms of the committee, I would propose that each committee member make an opening statement. I will conclude with one of my own and present a proposed agenda.

Do you agree with the norms? Please signify by stating yes or no.

Yes, Your Majesty.

[Mic’haglh Autófil, O.Be]

I agree, Your Majesty.

[xpb]

Yes, I find the norms acceptable.

[King Txec]

Now that we've established our norms, let us proceed to opening statements. We will do this in order of seniority, which means that Sir X. Pol Briga (@xpb) is invited to share his opening thoughts first. I should state I intend to run the commission based on Robert's Rules of Order.

Sir Pol, you have the floor.

Your Majesty, thank you for the opportunity to discuss the matter of Immigration.

I am thinking back as to how I became a citizen nearly two decades ago.  The initial connection was via the game of Diplomacy and how I met some Talossans that were involved in that hobby.  In fact in a couple of weeks I will be face to face with some of those same citizens at the ARMADA Regatta.  One might argue that competition is akin to short term role playing, and my son has defined my involvement in Talossa as a similar adventure in long form.

Certainly there are many outstanding citizens of Talossa that stumbled upon our fair realm via a mention in a news story or through random surfing.  However, there may be opportunities amongst the life connections of all citizens to create a niche of special interest groups within our lands as a mutual benefit for both Talossa and those SIGs.

I yield the floor.

[King Txec]

Thank you. @Baron Alexandreu Davinescu , please share your opening thoughts.

I have spoken frequently and loudly of my concerns, and I am glad we are working to fix them.  The immigration rate has dropped by a full 50% since the last government, which is disastrous.  I hope we can come up with some recommendations.
