Greetings Members of the 5th Cabinet, The cabinet discussion has fallen silent recently, and I hope that this slightly delayed 3rd cabinet meeting will open up some more cabinet discussion. The last cabinet meeting has been largely concerned with referendums and votes, so I would like to move on from that for now to focus on other issues. However, everyone should continue to come up with ideas for Amendment #39, and if you have any votes and amendments to propose, feel free to do so. Items for the entire Cabinet to address: 1. Peace Treaty with The Internationale The possibility of restarting these talks is returning, and I would like there to be significant discussion over the future of these talks. I have been communicating with some of you about the treaty via telegram, so feel free to share those ideas in the Internationale forum discussion. 2. Complete commendation for Grolsch I would like this taken care of soon because nothing has been done with this for 3 months. We need to decide who will be writing this commendation. 3. Prepared ministerial statements workshop (ongoing project) Now that the auto-telegram system is being implemented, it would be good to look at creating a more standard set of telegrams and statements to be sent out automatically. 4. Proposed back up Secretary-General and President in the case of inactivity (Grobladonia) 5. PF and CR requirements amendment (Currently Being written by Suceavija) There definitely needs to be more discussion over this. 6. Review jobs offered in the 'Help Wanted' subforum (if you want an assistant for your ministry, post the job in the subforum) Try to apply this constructive criticism to your cabinet position. 8. Discuss the possible implementation of the API telegram system This could actually be a good recruitment technique if we could somehow create a CR and PF filter. 8. Revitalization of the Newspaper The newspaper has been very silent for a long time except for Terlibe's article a few days ago. I would like more articles to be written for newspaper just to use it more often. This is not really a priority at the moment, but I just want Solidarity to be used more often. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Items for individual ministries to address: Secretary General (SG): 1. Determine if appropriate to declassify previous closed-door Cabinet meeting notes --It would be better to hold off on releasing these until TI treaty is either abandoned or completed. 2. Create Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section in 'Introduction' forum, edit 'About the Democratic Socialist Assembly' to include link to FAQ's. --I am currently working on a few of these, and you can come up with your own ideas to add. This can be discussed through telegram. 3. Make sure everything is updated (Amendments, Charter nations, etc.) 4. Actively participate in the discussion over the future of the Internationale treaty. Minister of Foreign Affairs (MFA): 1. Make embassy recommendations to P/WAD --Secular Alliance 2. Prepare interregional intelligence report for CAB --Interregional partners/allies --Interregional adversaries --Other regions of interest, if any 3. Actively participate in the discussion over the future of the Internationale treaty. Minister of Justice/Head of Supreme Court (MoJ): 1. Audit region for Civil Rights (CR), Political Freedoms (PF), and National Categories (NC) compliance 2. Make recommendations to P/WAD for nations to eject, if any --Like I stated before, I would like to eject as few nations as possible until Charter Amendment #39 is completed, but report all of the violators anyway. Minister of Immigration/Regional Promotion (MIRP): 1. Try to add filters/improve the API as much as you can 2. Verify if/when interregional leftist fair is being held 3. Look into the possibility of creating an auto-message for welcoming telegrams-->discuss with Grobladonia --The only problem I can think of with this is that nations that just briefly left will be welcomed all over again, which may seem strange. Minister of Domestic Affairs (MDA): 1. Continue coming up with new debate ideas. 2. Look into the possibility of creating an auto-message for welcoming telegrams-->discuss with Gervase --The only problem I can think of with this is that nations that just briefly left will be welcomed all over again, which may seem strange. 3. Possibly start nominations for a new contest. 4. Update all of the information in the NS Wiki. --There should not be too much to change. Mainly population and a few other minor details. 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 3. Essentially just keep the map current and updated Edited by Haltari, 23 May 2013, 04:17.

If we just play along long enough, he might just get frustrated and leave. Strangely his comments about actually started a conversation about food on the RMB. @Terlibe Herrebrugh and I are still using the policy in the link below, but depending on who gets elected for the 6th Cabinet that might change.

Thank you Haltari, but what is the actual process? Does the MFA ultimately decide by him/herself if we should accept or decline a request? |

Yeah that's what happens. I send him a list of all of the requests with reasons as to why or why not we should reject or accept them. It's almost always reject though. By this point, every time I send him a request he just responds by saying "you know what the answer is" or something like that. If I could, I would immediately reject all of the embassies that don't match our standards, but I am obligated by the charter to send him a telegram. |

I believe there is a clause that says Congress has the power to accept and reject embassies. |

Yes I noticed that before, and this does contradict the MFA's role in the Charter. I decided to stick with the MFA because the description about embassies for his/her role is much more extensive. Also the clause that states the Congress decides is far too brief and vague to be used. Whenever we get a request from a region I want to create an embassy with, I try to create a poll and discussion about it like I did with the UDLS. |

That's a good thing to address in the charter revisions, incidentally. |

I can bring it up once the scrutiny. By this point, it looks like the revision of the charter is long overdue. |

To prevent the sort of problems I had at the beginning of my term with the Wiki, I have created an account called DSAssembly_MDA that will be passed on to the next MDA along with custodianship of the Capitol. The password is the same as the Capitol's. EDIT: the nation in charge of maintaining the list if Arnhelm Declaration signatories was refounded 18 hours ago, so we can actually appear on the official list now.

Could I potentially have access to that account as well? I would like to be able to write a wiki page on my nation, but I am unable to start an account on there due to some registration problems. |

Our comrade St. Vincent just minutes ago came through with the Grolsch commendation. It was awfully good of them to take up the task, but as you'll see it needs some loving attention: Description: Acknowledging that this World assembly is create to uphold and preserve peace and Good Order in Nation States. Recognizing that The retired bureaucrat of grolsch is currently the Ambassador of South Liberal Union. Furthermore observing his great efforts as Ambassador to have helped restore peace and order multiple times and have tried (although unsuccessfully) to convince The Human Rights Activist of Cynthia McKinney to democratize her reign upon her return. In addition giving great notice to his leadership skills having been once upon a time been a WA Delegate, Deputy Minister of Immigration and later as Minister of Immigration, for the South Liberal Union. During his tenure in these various positions he have bringing the Democratic Socialist Assembly and the South Liberal Union together - initially, we searched for common ground through the founding of the UDLR and later another cooperation groups. Further noting that The retired bureaucrat of grolsch have lead by example in maintaining , preserving and upholding peace, good order and democracy which are the core principles of the World Assembly by trying to convince The Human Rights Activist of Cynthia McKinney to democratize her reign and also to implement laws to reflect the policy of World Assembly DEEMING The retired bureaucrat of grolsch enlightened leadership to be worthy of international appreciation HEREBY COMMENDS The retired bureaucrat of grolsch |
