Resolution on New Senate Speaker
Voting Thread


Evangelous Dimitriou submitted the Resolution on New Senate Speaker on 19 April 2018. Following the resolution of objections, Evangelous Dimitriou motioned for a vote on 20 April 2018 and Fornoire seconded the motion on 20 April 2018. Discussion on the bill can be found here.

Voting will be open for three days, until 25 April 2018, under the following conditions:

  • Any member may cast one vote, provided that they have a nation in Selene.
  • Members may not attempt to use multiple accounts to cast multiple votes. Attempts to circumvent this rule will lead to the elimination of all offending votes and further disciplinary measures.
  • Votes must be cast by replying to this thread, and they may be Aye, Nay or Abstain. Only Aye and Nay votes will be considered for the purposes of passage or defeat.
  • A majority of 50% + 1 is required for this bill to pass.

Resolution on New Senate Speaker
Resolution on the Appointment of the Speaker of the Senate


Whereas the Senate of the Empire of Selene is organised in a makeshift fashion not arising from the institutions of a constitution.

Whereby the Senate requires some measure of order to be able to fully and actively serve the Empire and it's interests,

Cognizant of the current place of the Emperor as the Acting Speaker of the Senate in all bills brought before the Senate in times past,

Trusting that the election of a new Speaker of the Senate will allow the Emperor additional time to administrate,

Hereby:
  • Appoints Volgorod as the Speaker of the Senate.

  • Encourages the Emperor to anoint Volgorod to a Dukedom for the duration of his term as Speaker of the Senate.

  • Recommends that the Senate pass legislation to formalise the structure of the Senate with all due haste.
Be it hereby enacted by the Senate of the Empire of Selene.

Certification of Vote


Whereas I have verified that the Resolution on New Senate Speaker was properly debated and brought to a vote, where it obtained five votes in favour, zero votes against and zero abstentions;

Whereas the votes in favour represented more than half the number of valid votes cast, therefore meeting the requirement for passage;

Whereas the Senate is sovereign in its prerogative to organise its own business, and its internal rules and resolutions require no assent from the Emperor;

I, Justinian Kalominos, Emperor of Selene and Duke of Byzantium, hereby certify that the Resolution on New Senate Speaker has been properly passed and has now entered into force.

Justinian Kalominos
Emperor of Selene and Duke of Byzantium
