The First Minister is recognized

This would have to be a constitutional amendment, not regular legislation. Also this is a damn silly idea.

Parliament has suffered from a chronic lack of activity, and it needs to be rectified in some way. Amendments are encouraged, and I would be willing to cede my powers over Parliament as First Minister if it would get it done.

Also, in my study of the Fremont Constitution I didn't see any part requiring a set amount of members in Parliament.

Artificially limiting the size of parliament doesn’t affect activity levels one jot. We’ve had many inactive 3 member Parliaments over the years, but we’ve also had the occasional active peaks with 5 or 6 members. No reason to artificially limit those peaks for no possible benefit.

Article I, Section 3
….. The number of members to be chosen shall be one fewer than the number of candidates who shall qualify to appear on the ballot; but neither fewer than three nor more than six members shall be elected.

I agree with ASV here, it's already sort of capped at 3 if there's not enough interest or declared candidates.

I appreciate looking for solutions to bring activity to Fremont again though.

The act is withdrawn. I will accept suggestions for actions to increase activity.
