RZ22 - Sense of the Ziu: early referendum on the Monarchy

Published in Clark #4

Whereas there will be a non-binding referendum on the issue of the monarchy, and

Whereas this is an important issue relating to our identity as a nation, and

Whereas holding this referendum during general election might result in it being snowed under by partisan politics, and

Whereas holding the referendum earlier would also allow party to consider the implications of the result for their political programme, and

Whereas there might be an early referendum already with regards to the EC, and

Whereas an early referendum needs to be authorised by the Seneschal, and

Whereas neither the referendum bill on the monarchy nor the lexhatx specifies any rules for non binding referenda, now therefore

the Ziu requests the pm to authorise an earlier date, coinciding with the early referendum planned for the electoral commission bills, for the referendum on the monarchy as described in 50RZ14, and to issue a PD clarifying the rules of this referendum with regards to balloting and validation and to let these rules be the same as for other referenda on the ballot.
