Proposal of Amendment 1.1
If a Minister does not appear in hearings for 4 consecutive weeks, this will be grounds for impeachment, unless they have an excuse, such as medical, work-related and school-related problems, travel, etc.

Are your votes ayes, then? I’d like to send the bill back to Rayekka soon.
For the new proposal yes
Great.
Oh, and since Grand Conexus wrote the bill and I support it, it passes! Hurrah! Now I can send it back to the House.
Done! I will begin the process with HB #3 tomorrow.
I am very sorry I wasn't able to participate in the debates. It was because of the time zones. I vote aye on both mine, Conexus's Amendment and Albianis's Amendment
Wow we did more on our first day during the ex Senate during two months LOL
I know, crazy, right? We are going to take a little break today, however, I will post our next bill for viewing and debate. Voting will begin tomorrow.
Term Limits Act - H.B. 003
Author: Korsinia
Sponsor: Korsinia
As Amended By: Rayekka
Understanding that the President and Prime Minister can serve unlimited amounts of terms, with no breaks in between. Justices can sit as long as they like with no election of their positions. Hereby enacts the following:
Individual citizens of Thaecia may serve an a maximum of two (2) consecutive terms as Prime Minister and a maximum of two (2) consecutive terms as President. If a Prime Minister or President loses or does not stand for re-election they cannot serve another term in that position at any time. Should the need for impeachment be necessary, it can be done through majority support from the House of Commons and 2/3rds support in the Senate. Impeachment proceedings can be started by either chamber of Congress.
Defining term to be the period after the day of the Presidential/Prime Minister elections, to the day before the next elections.
The Justices of Thaecia will be re-evaluated through a hearing in the Senate and re-confirmed by the Senate every 6 months. An absolute majority is required to re-confirm a Justice.
Should a Justice not be fit for their position, the Senate can impeach them with a 2/3rds majority. Justices are deemed not fit for their position if they have committed a felony in Thaecia or are inactive for 28 days or longer.
I do not like the fact that a nation cannot serve one term as President or PM, take a break and then serve another as President or PM.

Amendment Proposal:
Change
'Individual citizens of Thaecia may serve a maximum of two (2) consecutive terms as Prime Minister and a maximum of two (2) consecutive terms as President'
To:
'Individual citizens of Thaecia may serve a maximum of two (2) consecutive terms as Prime Minister or President'
Reasoning: This wording stops individuals who in the positions of Prime Minister and President from swapping positions after a maximum of two terms have been served
Amendment Proposal
From
The Justices of Thaecia will be re-evaluated through a hearing in the Senate and re-confirmed by the Senate every 6 months. An absolute majority is required to re-confirm a Justice.
To
The Justices of Thaecia will be re-evaluated through a hearing in the Senate and re-confirmed by the Senate every 6 months. 4/5ths of the total number of Senators are required to re-confirm a Justice.
Reason
We don't want one Senator to be able to obstruct all of the Senate Business, absolute majorities are hard to achieve, and that would just delay the Senate.
Personally I am not opposed to government officials serving an unlimited amount of terms, however I do agree with justices having to be reconfirmed. Will only be voting aye to the proposal if my amendment passes, as that's the only important part of the bill for me.
I am opposed to this bill or term limits for Prez and PM so a NAY for me
