Greetings to you, my fellow Comrades of the twelfth Cabinet of the DSA! :)

I congratulate you all for being elected/reelected to your Cabinet positions and I eagerly look forward to working with all of you this term.

I would like everyone to review your job descriptions in the Charter. I encourage all first-timers to freely ask any and all questions about your ministerial duties, either here or by telegram with those who have held your position in the past. If you think you will have difficulty fulfilling your duties, I encourage you to appoint an adviser and/or request help from volunteers in the Government Jobs subforum.

Below is my agenda for this term. I invite each of you to provide any feedback and to also provide any additional ideas or initiatives that you would like for your Ministries to pursue over the next 75 days.

I will be busy in RL this term and will not be around as much as I'd like to be. However, I aim to be available to answer questions and check in with your Ministries at least once a week (usually weekends).

Without further ado, my agenda:

Office of the President and WA Delegate:
1. Regional Polls: I would like us to have a much better picture of how residents see the region and their place in it so that we can target initiatives that will increase activity and boost morale.

2. Featured 5: I will renew the weekly roster. This boosts morale and increases dialogue and intrigue between Comrades; so I will make sure to do this regularly.

Office of the Secretary General:
1. Audit the congressional roster in the Forum; make updates to roles/statuses as necessary.
2. Organize an evaluation of the 11th Cabinet.
3. If you wish, appoint an adviser to help point you in the right direction.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs:
1. Draft and deliver formal apology to the residents of the old Alliance for the trespasses of New Puppy City.
2. Offer your recommendations for accepting/rejecting current embassy requests from abroad.
3. Distribute puppets to allied regions and announce your new position with a warm greeting from your ministry and the DSA.
4. Review current alliances and their regional statuses; compile brief intelligence report for the Cabinet.
5. Give recommendations for closure of embassies (if any) and/or new alliances to form (if any).

Ministry of Immigration and Regional Promotion:
1. Keep up the good work! Despite heavy losses due to mass-CTE, our region still hovers around 285 - a significant improvement from the recent past.
2. Keep the Cabinet updated about any interregional or world-wide conferences, or anything else that you think would be a good venue in which to promote our region.

Ministry of Justice:
1. Remedy any loose ends left from the previous Minister between their untimely absence and now.
2. Audit region for Charter compliance and begin proceedings for violators, if any. Report findings directly to the Secretary General so that they may update the Congressional Roster accordingly.

Ministry of Domestic Affairs:
1. Host a new discussion/debate in the Forum and advertise it in both Solidarity and with posts on the RMB.
2. Hold a contest for anything you'd like. In the past we have done things like best factbook entry, best flag, best motto, etc.
3. In the RMB, personally welcome newcomers with a quick post.
4. Compile a new daily or weekly bulletin (like the DDD or Proletariat Press) to summarize things that are going on in the Forum, the NS World, and RL as well.

Ministry of Role Play:
1. Map updates if any.
2. Solidify or create new notes for the regional LCD currency.
3. Introduce a resolution for the DSA Parliament.
4. Host a new RP activity in the Forum.

Please do not hesitate to ask questions. I encourage you to put forth your new ideas and discussion. I wish you all a successful and enjoyable term :)

Those marked Subject For Ejection have been notified, and I need someone to actually do the ejecting. Those not listed from the list South Jarvis provided weren't actually a problem when I checked.

In my opinion, we should go ahead with both LSI and NSLeft.

One more thing: do I need any kind of special access to parts of this forum? I'm not yet very familiar with it, but I see that you all belong to some special groups (like Minister of Justice) and I'm curious if this is also needed for any duties of the MoDA.

@ Gervase: I definitely support opening embassies with LSI. I'd never heard of them before - quite a gem in NS.

NSLeft I'm less convinced of at this point, only because they do not exhibit most typical qualities we have looked for in the past. Do we know anything about how they plan to govern themselves? Do they see themselves as a neutral party in the left? For instance, would they be the place to go to negotiate disagreements between disputing leftist regions?

Here are the other invitations awaiting your recommendations:

[region]United Kush States[/region]
[region]Labour and Socialist International[/region]
[region]Saint Georges League[/region]
[region]Revolutionary Communist Party[/region]

@ Borq: I don't think so. You should have full access and editing privileges in your subforum. If you don't let me know and I will fix it in the admin stuff.

Also, please let me know the 5 nations you would like to feature this next week.

@ Kotovania: Have all 13 nations all refused an advisory probation period?

I see no immediate issues with opening ties with LSI or NSLeft, though Suceavija does raise a good point about the latter.

Of the thirteen listed, the vast majority, at least 10, have not been active since I sent the initial telegrams informing them that a 7-day probational period has started. I'm not really sure what to do, if I should let them cease to exist or not. However, some have been active but have not responded to neither my warning of their probation nor my message informing them that their probation has expired.

@ Gervase: I just saw one of our comrades leave for this region, [region]United Sovereign Socialist Republics[/region]. I never heard of them before but they seem to be alive, well, and growing. What are your thoughts about opening an embassy with them?

@ Borq: Thank you for the picks - I will update the featured 5 accordingly on Monday!
