Mideast Assembly Thread

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Stricter Dog Fighting Policy Bill

Section I: It shall be illegal for any person to attend dog fighting events anywhere the Mideast Region. Anyone who’s caught attending a dog fight will be sentenced to a maximum fine of 600 dollars.
Section II: All fines collected from people breaking this law will be used to sponsor the construction and operation of special dog centres, designed to house and rehabilitate confiscated fight dogs, in co-operation with several animal right’s organisations.

Since there has been no further debate on this bill for over 24 hours, I call for a vote.

AYE.

AYE.

The victims and myself thank the Mideast Assembly for passing this excellent piece of legislation

[Kaine for Senate '18]

While, in theory, the noticeboard is a good idea, I don't think it is necessary.  As has been noted, the Assembly thread is well organized, and easy to navigate.  I think we don't need to add anther thread which will clutter up the board unnecessarily.

[Devilman88]

Maybe, a board for non-Assemblymans, so they can talk about the bills.

That is, again, unnecessary.  Non-Assemblyman are not prevented from posting in this thread, and from discussing the legislation, and from suggesting changes.

[Хahar 🤔]

No extra threads. I like the way this Assembly is set up much better than I do the Northeast's.

Mideast Assembly Noticeboard Act

1. Effective January 1, 2010, there shall be a thread, titled “Mideast Assembly Noticeboard”, in the board Atlas Fantasy Elections.
2. It shall be the responsibility of the Speaker of the Assembly to maintain this thread and keep it up to date.
3. This thread shall be modeled after the Senate Noticeboards in the board Atlas Fantasy Government. It shall include a list of bills currently under debate, including the status of all such bills, a list of bills in the queue, as well as lists showing passed and rejected legislation.
4. All proposed legislation shall be submitted in the Mideast Assembly Noticeboard.

Since there has been no debate on this bill for the last 24 hours, I move to a vote.


Guys, when this bill is dealt with, may I suggest a recess until after Christmas. I think most of us will be busy and have little time for the forum in coming days.

[RIP Robert H Bork]

Aye.

[Devilman88]

Nay on the bill,

Also, I will not be here from the December 28th to January 2nd or 3rd.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Nay.

What's the problem with this? It will definately ease congestion, as many people have no clue what's going on here.

The Assembly is only "well organized, and easy to navigate" to those who check on every 5 minutes to see if there is a new post. For an outside observer, like myself, it is very hard to see what is going on. It's kind of like organized chaos...

Even then, it is not difficult.  One thing, perhaps, would be to do what the Senate threads do, and have the name of the bill and it's current status in the header.

  Abstain


The bill fails.

So shall we recess from 23rd December to 2 January? I won't be here 23-26 and Josh not 28-2, so we probably won't have a full Assembly during that period anyway.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Yes, we might as well recess. 

[Devilman88]

Yes, lets recess for the Holidays

[RIP Robert H Bork]

Well then I shall take a Christmas break also. I will be here a little less from December 24 to January 6.

Aye, ftr.

That was a quick vote! I spend one evening off the Forum......

[Badger]

Yes, we might as well recess. 

Agreed. Do you wish to set a date for reconvening, Mr. Speaker? Better to do so than leaving it open-ended.

FWIW, perhaps reconvening between Xmas and Ney Years? We'll all have some down time after Christmas and plenty of web surfing time in the intervening week I suspect.

It appears the date has been set as January 3, with us in recess from 12/23-1/2.

Cricket chirp.  Cricket chirp.

The Assembly is not in session.
