45PD1 — The Seek and Desire Are Not the Same Thing Prime Dictate

I, Txec Róibeard dal Nordselva, Seneschál del Regipäts Talossán, with all duly vested authority and stuff, do hereby and forthwith declare the following Prime Dictate, beseeching his Majesty the King to grant his assent with all due celerity that it might become law:

WHEREAS, on June 22 the Magistrates Court issued a ruling declaring that the words seek and desire are synonyms and by this nature make enforcement of The What's The Difference Act impossible;

and WHEREAS debate has erupted in certain corners of Talossa as to the exact meaning of these two words;

and WHEREAS the Kingdom of Talossa itself has been defined by the Magistrates Court as being a micronation despite the fact that the Kingdom of Talossa does not meet all four criteria because The Kingdom of Talossa really should by default recognize itself;

and WHEREAS let us resolve this issue;

THEREFORE;

Section 5 of 37RZ22 The What's the Difference Act is hereby amended to read:

A micronation is hereby legally defined to be any society of persons (whether claiming territorial sovereignty or not) that

  • claims a governmental organization and citizenry and
  • is not a member of the United Nations and
  • is not a member of the Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization and
  • is not the Kingdom of Talossa or a subdivision thereof, or officially recognised by the Kingdom of Talossa.


and FURTHERMORE;


Section 6 of 37RZ2 The What's The DIfference Act is hereby amended, striking the word "seek", to read:

It is a criminal act for any Talossan citizen to accept or hold citizenship in a micronation. The penalty for committing such a crime shall be the revocation of Talossan citizenship. The Attorney-General, on being informed of any alleged violation of this act, and upon verifying the same to his personal and legal satisfaction, shall immediately notify the accused that the government has determined that valid cause exists for a criminal case to be brought against the citizen in the Uppermost Cort. After providing this notification, the Attorney-General shall allow ten days for the accused to dissolve any and all allegiance to the micronation, or to organize a defence against the charge. If, after this ten day period, the Attorney-General determines that the criminal act yet continues, he shall immediately file criminal charges against the accused with the Uppermost Cort and there shall seek the prescribed penalty for the violation of this act. If after this ten day period, the Attorney-General determines that the criminal activity has permanently ceased, he shall not file the considered charges, and the accused shall continue as a fully privileged citizen of the Kingdom.

Done under my hand and seal, as from Kenwood House, this day the 13th day of July, in the Year of Our Lord 2013, of the independence of Talossa the thirty-fourth, and the seventh in the reign of our gracious Sovereign John.
