1.1. First Act of the new government “needlessly convoluted”, some say

The National Parliament, during the Constituent Assembly on the 11th, had passed a Containment Act regarding the inner operating of its own institutions and members. It had received criticism from the public sphere (namely newsletters) over creating a needlessly convoluded political system.

The counter-criticism to this sentiment revolves around formalist misconception. Namely, Robert Stenhouse of the IaN Institute, commented on the discourse for NAACN:

"Needlessly convoluded isn't the correct classification, nor is the Act by itself the correct choice for target. I've criticised the Ordinance and am critical of this Act as well but on different grounds. Namely, we've restructured the political system to be very unclear... It's hard to classify Nasphilitae in the typology of political systems. Besides the historical counter-intuitive form of state (Electoral Republican Monarchy) wherein "Republican" insinuated the etymology of the term (Res publica; State matters are conducted in the collective interests of the public). The Ordinance and the Act create a system of power which is syncrethic, mixing elements of Parliamentarism, limited rationalisation for the majority government, simultaneous division of powers in the form of The Plenary Committee and fusion of powers in the form of Parliamentary Supremacy. Adding to this is the to-be-legislated Regional vertical organisation of the state."

1.2. IAD & RAFI Created & Explained

The Containmnt Act created two new institutions.

Independent Agency for Documentation (IAD)
A department of OPAL, tasked with creating publicly available documents of The National Parliament. Head Director, which had to be chosen accordinng to Rules of Merit, is Ayala Moran of the IaN Institute.
Royal Agency for Foreign Information (RAFI)
A department of the HM Cabinet for Foreign Affairs, RAFI is accountable to the Head of State (as well as the Peerage & th Earldoms), serving to transmit official statements and attitudes of the Grand Duchy of Nasphilitae to Cross-Pacifica.

1.3. Criticism: Act unclear regarding motionns of no confidence

Our criticism towards the New Act is related to its lack of clarity regarding motions of no confidence. Namely, the Head of Government can appoint & dismiss Executive Officers (Head of HMs Shadow Government follows the same protocol).

Furthermore, the individual Officers (Committee Heads in case of the Shadow Government) hold individual accountability for their sector, but present their proposals as a collective body. However, if The National Parliament passes a Resolution of Dismissal of on one Officer (Committee Head), then they are dismissed as a collective body.

This makes it unclear on whether The National Parliament can motion a vote of no confidence towards the Head of Government or Head of HMs Shadow Government; as well as whether the above procedure affects them.


2.1. “Systemic causes of the “Liquidity crisis” of Nasphilitae”

A new generation of Systems Theorists, namely Trevor Georgemill (Political Economist graduate, age 23), began discussing Innsbolts period & systemic cause-effect-consequences of previous actions. He has provided a comprehensive scheme of events below:

2.2. Upcoming Agendas related to monetary policy, exchange rate parity

The upcoming Agenda this week, initiated by both the Executive Government and HMs Shadow Government, begin economic reformation by focus on monetary policy. It seems that they follow advice of the Cohens Research Paper which suggests a strong focus on the monetic.

It’s likely to see two opposing bills dicussed in the upcoming week; As the same Agenda was formed by Officer for Economy, Madison Carson (MP of SRP) and by Head Committee of Monetary Affairs, Eda Nifterick (MP of the Opportunity Party).


3.1. Reporter of RAFI: former industrial designer rewarded

The Reporter for RAFI will be the young Derrick Mayviolet, a former industrial designer from Agorport, more widely known for his critical posts on the “Stream” social network. The HM Cabinet for Foreign Affairs claimed that (paraphrasing):

"Three reasons lie behind this choice:
  • Firstly, Mayviolets design of a functional encryption & decryption mechanism, which is being implemented inside the Country for confidential documents.
  • Secondly, his online activities and public notoriety for being sardonically critical of ongoing events in the country.
  • Lastly, one of his online posts openly show his desire for employment into the T.M.C."

  • HM Cabinet for Foreign Affairs, SIGNED: Earl Quinlan Emmerson

    3.2. HM Cabinet agendas: consulate re-opening & “institutes for cross-cultural studies”

    The Head of the HM Cabinet for Foreign Affairs, Earl Quinlan Emmerson, has also noted that the HM Cabinet (which includes the Grand Duke, Head of HMCFA, Head General of the AFN, Chief of Joint Staff of the AFN, Chief Commanders of AFN-RAF AFN-RA abd AFN-RN, the Directorate of the Agency for Documentation and Identification and partially, the Head of Government) that they will begin working on two tasks:

  • Re-opening of Consulate Offices
  • Creation bilateral Institutes for Cross-Cultural Studies within the Consulate Offices
  • To the question of why Consulate Offices are being chosen over Ambassadors, the Head of State & Grand Duke of Nasphilitae (Peer Dawson Ernst), did not give an answer.
