Comrades, old and new: welcome to the newly-elected Tenth Cabinet of the DSA! First off, allow me to extend felicitations to you all on your successful elections! Yay! It was no cakewalk this time. Candidates competed with campaigns and platforms. I think that's a first, but if it isn't, it's gaining a lot more traction now that it's noticeable. So many were qualified, and just as many were attractive candidates, making it tough to decide! No worries, you are While the by-election is being held, take notice of the meeting format. It's divided into two parts - three if you count the discussion. The first is the Agenda, which are the everchanging objectives we hope to achieve. Depending on extenuating circumstances, these objectives can change or be given different priorities. Hopefully, it's because they've been completed. The second, Items for individual ministries, are your regular (if not daily) chores. They are predictable and never end. Take joys in the little accomplishments you make to stave off any boredom. Before you know it, your term will be over, so don't dilly-dally and be left with any regrets. If you feel you need orientation in either of these areas, please contact the previous ministers or myself. The next part is copied and pasted because I'm unoriginal and couldn't think of another way to word it: For all newcomers, the purpose of these meetings is to discuss issues facing the region as a whole and receive status updates from ministers on their duties in the region. I shall ask each of you to regularly (preferably at least once every week or two) update the Cabinet on the status of your ministries and share any concerns. I shall provide each ministry with a small list of items to address, though you need not discuss all of these at once as long as you get to each of them eventually. I officially open the 0th Cabinet Meeting of the 10th Cabinet. Yes, 0th. It's preliminary. ---Agenda--- Familiarize yourselves with your positions and get settled. Preferably in your office in the specific sub-forums. Decorate your desks and organize your file-cabinets. Nothing more for today. Wouldn't want to overload you on your first days. Baby steps. Class dismissed! ---Items for individual ministries--- Secretary General (SG): 1. Make sure everything is updated (Amendments, Charter nations, etc.). 2. Organise an evaluation of the Ninth Cabinet. 3. Appoint an advisor, if desired. Minister of Foreign Affairs (MFA): 1. Make embassy recommendations to P/WAD. 2. Try to find new regions to potentially establish embassies with. 3. Monitor ambassadors for potential inactivity. 4. Appoint an advisor, if desired. Minister of Justice (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. 3. Familiarize yourself with the Charter. Minister of Immigration/Regional Promotion (MIRP): 1. Make sure the auto-telegram system is transferred and working properly. 2. Review and revise recruitment telegram draft. 3. Keep your eyes peeled for interregional events. 4. Experiment: find out what works and what doesn't. Perhaps a survey could tell us why people chose our region. Minister of Domestic Affairs (MDA): 1. Come up with new debate ideas. 2. Try to come up with a new contest or game. 3. Try to update all the information in the NS Wiki. (I am speaking of course of the new NSWiki.org created by Afforess. Contact TSJI for info on how they managed it.) --There should not be too much to change, aside from population and proofreading. 4. Update the DSA Capitol factbook. 5. Appoint an advisor, if desired. Minister of Role Play (MoRP): 1. Verify all nations on map are: --Existing --Reside in the region (domestic puppets okay, too) 2. Keep the map current and updated. 3. Encourage new roleplays in the Gymnasia. |

I liked the idea you put forth: that of anonymous candidates / demarchy. In that way it can still be a popularly-cast decision. |

In my opinion re-opening the current runoff vote would be the most elegant solution, of course in case it is technically possible. At MoRP elections 33 people have voted during the main vote, but only 24 people have voted during the runoff vote. Additional voting time will most certainly break this draw. And as a Minister of Justice I officially make the legal ruling that it is acceptable to ignore the provisions of the Article III, Section I, Subsection I, Clause III of the Charter during the current elections. The procedure from this Clause simply can't work on our forum. Edited by Riasy, 14 Apr 2014, 23:01.

I agree that the most logical thing to do. Personally, I am already planning to change my vote, and I believe others are thinking the same. Surely this will result in a different outcome. |

I will be organising a fresh new vote to start later today. It'll run four days, just like the last runoff and all by-elections, since I want the drama to die quickly. Also, will we be archiving the last Cabinet meeting soon? |

Yep. Archive and declassify away. Regarding the successful merger, should anything else be done aside from light encouragement of endorsement aid? |

I don't think so. I have been watching the situation quite closely with my diplomatic nation, but I think that they are handling the merger quite nicely, and all we can do is just help encourage the move. As for that, I have my diplomat nation already there to help. |

Hello. As the new MoRP, I would like to ask how I could get a copy of the map database to use to update it? EDIT: Wait, I see what was said earlier, nevermind. How should one go about getting into touch with Cor? Edited by Gallifrax, 21 Apr 2014, 01:01.
