WHEREAS in most nations, responsibility for keeping order and civil debate in the Legislature is a function of the President/Chair/Speaker of that Chamber;
AND WHEREAS in Talossa, most debate on occurs not in the formal chambers of the Ziu, but in the Hopper;
AND WHEREAS the Hopper has degenerated into a kind of "Wild West" atmosphere, with MCs baiting, trolling and abusing each other;
AND WHEREAS this is unseemly;
AND WHEREAS the Mençéi has established good rules for debate among Senators, but nothing similar exists for the Cosa as yet;
BE IT ESTABLISHED by the King, Cosa and Senäts of Talossa in Ziu assembled that El Lexhátx H.20 shall be amended as follows:
The King shall appoint a Member of the Cosa to serve as Speaker of the Cosa (Talossan: el Túischac'h) for the upcoming term, on the advice of the Seneschal after consultation with the leaders of all parties represented in the Cosa. The Speaker shall preside, direct and maintain order during Living Cosas and in the Hopper, in an unbiased fashion. Otherwise, his function will be to advise Members of the Cosa of appropriate decorum. He is considered the honourable President of the Cosâ and shall be awarded all due veneration when serving as such. In the absence of the Túischac'h from the Hopper, the Mençéi shall perform these duties.
