WHEREAS recent well-intentioned reforms to the selection process for the office of Túischac'h have made it difficult to keep that office filled, and
WHEREAS the Túischac'h serves no essential organic function, so there appears to be no reason why it should not be easier to change the manner of his or her selection, therefore
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa that the following amendment to the Organic Law be recommended to the citizenry for ratification:
That Article XII, Section 9 of the Organic Law which currently reads:
The King shall appoint a Member of the Cosa to serve as Speaker of the Cosa (Talossan: el Túischac'h), on the advice of a simple majority vote in the Cosa for the upcoming term. The Speaker shall preside, direct and maintain order during Living Cosas, in an unbiased fashion. Otherwise, his function will be to advise Members of Cosa of appropriate decorum. He is considered the honourable President of the Cosâ and shall be awarded all due veneration when serving as such.
be deleted.
ADDITIONALLY, be it enacted by the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa that upon the ratification of the amendment to Organic Law proposed above, the following shall come immediately into force:
El Lexhatx, Section H.19, which currently reads:
19. Before the first Clark of a new Cosâ, and then again whenever the office of Túischac'h becomes vacant, the MCs shall convene as an Electoral Conclave under the leadership of the outgoing Túischac'h, or if none is available, the chronologically oldest MC. This Conclave shall decide upon a nominee for Túischac'h, who shall have the support of at least 50%+1 of the Cosa seats, and said nominee shall present himself for formal appointment to the King, as stated in OrgLaw XII.9. (48RZ29)
19.1 If there is no Túischac'h nor a nominee as chosen above on the first day of the month, a Warrant of Prorogation shall be issued as in OrgLaw XIII.2 if it is the first Clark of the Cosâ; or otherwise, a month of recess shall be declared as in OrgLaw XIII.3
shall be amended to read:
19. 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, 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.
