47RZ44: The Don\'t Be a Dictator (PD Reform) Amendment
WHEREAS the Prime Dictate power of the Seneschal, though exercised with admirable restraint in recent year, is inherently prone to abuse, and
WHEREAS to whatever extent the Prime Dictate power may be used to create or change statutory law, it should be viewed as a delegation of authority by the Ziu, and
WHEREAS the Ziu should therefore have more control over how the power is used,
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:
Section 5 of Article XI of Organic Law ("The Seneschál"), which currently reads:
Prime Dictates (PD's) are public declarations which affect government policy and have the force of law. They take effect upon their countersignature by the King, function as laws for all purposes, and may be repealed by a majority vote in the Cosâ. If a Prime Dictate is vetoed by the King, the Cosâ may introduce the text of the PD as a regular bill and, if it receives two-thirds of the vote, it becomes law over the King's objection. A PD may never be used to amend the Organic Law. PD's shall be published at the earliest possible opportunity in the Clark.
is replaced in full by the following text:
Prime Dictates (PD's) are public declarations which affect government policy and have the force of law. They take effect upon their countersignature by the King, function as laws for all purposes, with such exceptions and subject to such conditions as the Ziu may enact by statute. If a Prime Dictate is vetoed by the King, the Cosâ may introduce the text of the PD as a regular bill and, if it receives two-thirds of the vote, it becomes law over the King's objection. A PD may never be used to amend the Organic Law. PD's shall be published at the earliest possible opportunity in the Clark.
