RZ10 - The Leader of the Opposition (Restoration) Bill

WHEREAS El Lexhatx H.1 refers to a "Leader of the Opposition";

AND WHEREAS this is nowhere defined in Organic or Statutory Law;

AND WHEREAS it would be a good tradition to re-establish, as Parliamentary democracy works best with a vibrant alternative Government holding the government to account in the Legislature;

AND WHEREAS according to historical documents, this was once a Royal appointment, but that would not be an appropriate tradition to re-establish;

BE IT ENACTED by the King, Cosâ and Senäts in Ziu assembled that the following new section shall be added to Title H of El Lexhátx: Members of the Cosâ who (in a given session of the Cosa) have voted NON on the most recent Vote of Confidence, or intend to do so on the next Vote of Confidence, shall be known as El Contrapharti Fieir da Sieu Maxhestà, or "His Majesty's Loyal Opposition" in English, or in short "El Contrapharti / The Opposition". Unless and until the members of the Opposition decide otherwise by majority vote, the "Leader of the Opposition" shall be the leader of the party with the most Cosa seats assigned to MCs who voted NON on the last Vote of Confidence.
