RZ4 - The Articulate Amendment

Published in Clark #2

Whereas, currently there is alot of tension between the parties.

Whereas, tension leads to anger.

Whereas, anger between parties can lead to battles and hatred. 

Whereas, hatred can lead to suffering, via someone renouncing, which is suffering for all involved. 

Therefore, we propose an extension of the role of the Speaker (Túischac'h) within the Cosa. 

Currently Article XII Section 9 of Organic Law which currently reads :

"The King shall appoint a Member of the Cosâ to serve as Speaker of the Cosâ (Talossan: el Túischac'h), on the advice of the Seneschál for the upcoming term. The Speaker shall preside, direct and maintain order at Living Cosâs in an unbiased fashion. He is considered the honourable President of the Cosâ and shall be awarded all due veneration when serving as such."

Article XII Section 9 shall be replaced by: 

"The King shall appoint a Member of the Cosa to serve as Speaker of the Cosa (Talossan: el Túischac'h), on the advice of a simple majority vote in the Cosa for the upcoming term. The Speaker shall preside, direct and maintain order during Living Cosas, in an unbiased fashion. Otherwise, his function will be to advise Members of Cosa of appropriate decorum. He is considered the honourable President of the Cosâ and shall be awarded all due veneration when serving as such."
