Here we are! What? forgot to post this till I accidentally stumbled into the last one? Don't be ridiculous!

Anyway, i'm supposed to come up with some agenda for this cabinet, right?

Ok...

Lemur Isles: By Sec-Gen-y (Descriptive I know)

Celle Franca: Again, no real specifics, just do your job

Borq: Step up the removal of non compliant members, if they're not going to comply they need to be gone

Ivory Rhodes: We need some more activity in the region. Maybe a few long term RP's that people can get invested in? something to keep people using NS rather than making a nation, storing it here, and never logging in again

Collective Suggestions

Re-write the recruitment telegram: I seem to recall this being discussed in a previous cabinet meeting, but I don't recall it ever happening

Inactive users: Could we maybe introduce a policy whereby if a nation which A) is not a WA member who has endorsed the president and B) is inactive for a set amount of time (Without given warning), they are removed from the region? It might give us a true idea of the actual useable size of the region, as well as encouraging people to stay active

I would advise against ejecting inactive people, if nothing else, it just makes us look less influential than we are. Players that return to activity may also resent the DSA for ejecting them, meaning they won't come back.

I've reorganised the forum a bit. What do comrades think, are there any more changes you feel must be done?

We're not ejecting inactive people. We're (occasionally, and after giving them enough time) ejecting those who do not comply with the Charter residency requirements. Corrupt Dictatorships and the such :)

As for the inactive ones, yes, new legislation could be proposed, but I hope it gets rejected. Just being inactive is nothing bad in itself. Not endorsing the elected WAD, on the other hand, is still punishable by ejection. We have no real choice here, but to turn a blind eye. It would be easier if we just had a list of WA members and wrote TGs directly to them to remind them to endorse the WAD.

I've been giving some thought into a plan to help the external image of the DSA. I haven't come up with anything thus far I'd like to put in place, but I do have some plans to attempt to revitalize the Ambassador program of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, along with some possible candidates for future embassies. You guys can actually count on me this term to do my job, unlike the 10th Cabinet (I reaaalllyyy messed up there).
Positions held:
Minister of Role Play (10th Cabinet)
Minister of Foreign Affairs (17th Cabinet)
WAD/President of the DSA(18th Cabinet)
Minister of Foreign Affairs (21st Cabinet)
Minister of Domestic Affairs (25th Cabinet)
Minister of Foreign Affairs (26th Cabinet)

I've sent (personalized, this time) warning telegrams to the following nations, to get their stats in line with the Charter Residency conditions. If I see improvements by the end of the week, they will not be ejected.

The following nations, WA members, have not endorsed Communicar yet, being so in violation of the Charter's terms of Residency. They should be ejected, but I don't really want to do so. Ideas?

I would say don't expel them just yet (if ever). In the less than four days since I sent out that mass TG, Communicar has already gotten about 20 endorsements. I've noted that some of the nations in your list haven't even logged in in those past 4 days (according to their national pages, anyway).

It would probably be a good idea to send them an individualised telegram with a warning before any ejections should be made.

Also, Communicar, it would be a good idea for you to endorse all the WA nations in the DSA. That is a good way to get their attention, and they often endorse you back.

The following nations will be ejected, based on:
- clauses 1.2.2 and 1.2.7 of the Charter,
- clause 2.2 of the Charter Violations Act 2015.

They have all been given at least 2 notices of at least 7 days each. Any objections to the ejections? If not, they will happen 24 hours from now.

The list:
schuvicrya (last activity 10 days ago)
lithetland (last activity 15 days ago)
spr_novaya_zemlya (last activity 2 days ago)
tenebralia (last activity 6 days ago)
estados_unidos_argentinos (last activity 2 days ago)
nothing_crazy (last activity 18 days ago)

Done with the ejections.

Now I'm on probation for 7 days, to get my Civil Rights back to Good. If I can't, Lemur Isles must remove me from Congress, and the MoJ position will become vacant.

My Civil Rights did not get back to Good. So, I'm pasting this RMB entry here too, for historical purposes.

Oh, Borq...

Right you are. Still, I cannot go against my principles "just" to reach the needed level of Civil Rights. That being said, as of today I recommend to the SecGen Lemur Isles my removal from Congress, based on:
- clauses 2.1.2.1, 2.1.2.4, and 2.1.2.6 of the Charter,
- clause 3.2 of the Charter Violations Act 2015.

After Borq's removal from Congress, I shall, of course, not be Minister of Justice anymore, as per clause 2.1.3.1 of the Charter. Furthermore, as per clause 3.6 of the Electoral Procedures Act 2014, as modified by clause 5.1 of the Electoral Procedures Amendment (Cabinet Term) Act 2015, a special election should be held for the position of MoJ.

(South Jarvis, please check the Electoral Procedures Amendment (Cabinet Term) Act 2015; there is one typo in close 5.1 - it should refer to a modification of clause 3.6 of the Electoral Procedures Act 2014, but it mistakenly mentions the non-existing clause 5.6)

Oh well.. I was such a good MoJ... So good, I even managed to apply the Charter upon myself :(
