Resolution No. 5 — Establishment of a Constitutional Reform Committee

Whereas the Constitution of the Province of Florencia requires major review to ensure its coherence, legitimacy, and democratic integrity;

Whereas questions concerning constitutional structure and governance warrant a dedicated, orderly, and inclusive process;

Be it resolved that:

A Constitutional Reform Committee is hereby established for the purpose of reviewing, drafting, and proposing a revised Constitution.

The Committee shall consist of three (3) voting members only, namely:

The Governor, who shall serve as Chair of the Committee and shall hold one (1) vote;

Breneir Tzaracomprada, who shall serve as Vice-Chair and shall hold one (1) vote;

Mximo Carbonèl, who shall also serve as Vice-Chair and shall hold one (1) vote.

Only the Chair and the two Vice-Chairs shall possess voting rights within the Committee.

The Committee may, at its discretion, appoint external experts to assist its work, including but not limited to:

A judge or legal expert;

Representatives or members of other political parties;

Representatives from other relevant institutions.

Such experts shall serve in an advisory capacity only and shall not hold voting rights.

The Committee shall be mandated to submit its constitutional proposal prior to the opening of the Sixth Clark of the 62nd Cosa.

The proposed Constitution shall be submitted to the Nimlet for approval and must be adopted prior to the next general election.

Upon adoption by the Nimlet, the new Constitution shall be submitted to a referendum during the 63rd General Election.

Be it further resolved that this Committee shall conduct its work in a spirit of transparency, constitutional continuity, and respect for democratic principles.

Good morning to my now-fellow Pastours -- I apologize for the delay, I wanted to make sure my appointment was official in line with provincial constitutional procedure.

In line with my previous pledge to do so, I abstain on Resolution 5. I believe this means the measure will pass with eight votes in favor, none opposed, and one abstention. However, do I correctly see no provision for the early closure of votes when their outcome is assured? If that is the case, per the bill's sponsor under Article IV, Section 3, voting is still open for ten more days, though I am happy to be corrected in the event I've missed something hiding in the Constitution somewhere. I apologize if this creates a bit of a needless delay, but given the highly unusual nature of Florencia's current executive arrangement, I'd prefer we really do things by the letter of the law to avoid any issues.

(If I am correct, that may be a good example of a reform for the Committee to keep in mind...)

Azul,

This is the kind of loophole we want to correct.

We always assumed that the vote finish when everybody have vote or when the fourteen days are over.
