Well it has been a very hard week with all of the disputes with TI. I hope the next two weeks will be more peaceful. In the meantime, I think we should catch up on domestic issues.

Items for the entire Cabinet to address:

1. Peace Treaty with The Internationale
Postponed until later

2. Review jobs offered in the 'Help Wanted' subforum (if you want an assistant for your ministry, post the job in the subforum)

3. LRA Charter & Treaty (essentially replaces the UDLR)

4. Arnhelm Declaration of Recruitment Standards (ADRS)
Needs to be added to the next vote


5. Complete commendation for Grolsch
Needs to be written and added to the next vote. We have to decided who will write this.

6. Prepared ministerial statements workshop (ongoing project)
This has been largely inactive for some time, but this is not a priority at the moment.

7. Prohibitions on Cabinet members' extra-regional activities workshop (Amendment #38)
Needs to be written and added to the next vote. Liberals of America agreed to right this in a few weeks, but we could choose someone else if we want this done sooner.


8. Recommencement of the IRC channel
This has been out of use for quite some time, but it could be a good way to improve communication on the forums, if reinstated.


9. Proposed back up Secretary-General and President in the case of inactivity (Grobladonia)

10. PF and CR requirements amendment (Currently Being written by Suceavija)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Items for individual ministries to address:

Secretary General (SG):
1. Determine if appropriate to declassify previous closed-door Cabinet meeting notes --> this should not be done right now. We are still in the dispute with the Internationale.
2. Prepare another referendum of the 5th term: voting on LRA Charter CA #38, ADRS, Commendation for Grolsch
3. Determine who will write the various amendments and documents currently proposed with the P/WAD and Cabinet.
4. Create Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section in 'Introduction' forum, edit 'About the Democratic Socialist Assembly' to include link to FAQ's.
5. Make sure everything is updated (Amendments, Charter nations, etc.)

Minister of Foreign Affairs (MFA):
1. Appoint ambassadors to interregional partners (I don't know if any new ambassadors have been appointed)
2. Make embassy recommendations to P/WAD
--United Empire of Islam
--League of rogues
--The South Europe Union
3. Prepare interregional intelligence report for CAB
--Interregional partners/allies
--Interregional adversaries
--Other regions of interest, if any

Minister of Justice/Head of Supreme Court (MoJ):
1. Audit region for Civil Rights (CR), Political Freedoms (PF), and National Categories (NC) compliance --> Report to SG
--There are quite a few violators at the moment, and they need to be informed of this.
2. Make recommendations to P/WAD for nations to eject, if any

Minister of Immigration/Regional Promotion (MIRP):
1. Determine target regions (verify none are included in the ADRS)
2. Verify if/when interregional leftist fair is being held

Minister of Domestic Affairs (MDA):
1. Declare new juicy/interesting debate in Debate Hall
--Possibly the Venezuelan one you were talking about

2. Finish up the poll you are currently working and present it the nations from TI and the DSA.
3. Spark up some RMB conversation that does not involve TI

Minister of Cartography (MoC):
1. Verify all nations on map are:
--Existing
--Reside in the region (domestic puppets okay, too)
2. Add nations from map opt-in subforum who request placement on map

Wait.. you said there were quite a few violaters? I'm showing two Fathers Knows Best State, and one Corrupt Dictatorship. Is there something I'm missing?

I think there are also a few nations that have too low CR and PF levels.

Ah, I gotcha. Is there an easier way to find them rather than scrolling through the entire roster? I know at least with the categories, that I can sort them using NS Trackers.

Oouuch.. 22 offenders, 9 with WA status, 3 I just recruited :(

That's an awfully high number. Can we give the new recruits a little time and extend a hand to the older countries that need to improve their standings? It would be a shame to erase the great work that the recruitment team has been doing lately.

Many of the older regions where warned in by the last MoJ. But then again, I am unsure the type of help was provided to those who asked for it. I do personally know one of the nations in violation, and have been trying to get them to fix their nation for a while, but they really don't seem to care about NS, and I think they just joined it to see what it's like, which is perfectly fine, it's just not their cup of tea. I have warned them many times, however, that they will be ejected if they don't fix themselves.

I think the newest members should have some leniency. I remember how hard it was for me in the beginning. My political freedoms dipped to Average twice until i could finally get them to where they are now. And some issues have and excessive (and sometimes completely unexplainable) effect on some stats.

I remember one time I decided to put a term limit on MPs so there wouldn't be the same old Senators sticking around forever. I expected it would improve political freedoms for my citizens, but in fact it wound up cutting my economy in half. I still don't understand how that makes sense.

They also might not be aware of the requirement that they keep CR and PF at a certain level.

I think that we should remind everyone now. The older nations will be put under probation after this reminder, but the newer nations should be given some time for everything to settle.

Aw dang, I'd already sent it. In the future, I'll give more time. I try to be as lenient as I can: in addition to the usual template, I included advice to change issue frequency, as well as a link to the issues thread.

I could check to see if any of the new nations are violators when I send my welcoming telegram and include a heads-up about their CR/PF rating. I'd just need to know what it should sound like.

My Dear and Respected Comrades:

1) I am going to bring up another point: new new map format. What do you guys think about it?

Posted Image

As soon as this map is implemented and a few necessary changes made (having Quakerly and The Rhine Gold removed, for instance), I'll coordinate with Terlibe to create the proposed database. In the mean time, I suggest that we remove the link to the old map in the WFE, indicating that it is being renovated.

2) Regarding the amount of nations out of compliance (NooC): This is one of the problems about having a new nation: a single issue can turn your nation into Orwell's Oceania if you choose the wrong option.

3) Regarding the new posts suggested by Grobladonia: Seconded

4) Got a 10 in my Tecnology exam!!! (Kirchhoff's Circuit Laws) **party blowers** (sorry, I am so excited that I am feeling the need to share this with everyone :D)
