Is now the time for nominating a Speaker?

I forgot, is it the Speaker or the Emperor that introduces the bills?

The Speaker.

I suppose I'll throw my hat into the ring if no one else is interested.  The IDS Legislature needs to run faster and more efficiently, so I would like the opportunity to improve the current system if elected.

Brief announcement: I'm moving my flag bill to the top of the queue, and I'll probably be withdrawing my campaign finance reform bill.  There's probably just not enough support for the latter bill and I really think we should get a new flag ASAP.  Since none of the bills in the queue have other sponsors, I don't think Assembly approval will be necessary, but I'll bring it to a vote if anyone objects.

Speaking of which, I hate to complain, but we need more bills.  I think I've introduced my fair share of legislation, and our legislators should keep the queue full so that debate doesn't die.  I'll whip up some more bills if necessary, but keeping debate alive is a five-person job here.  Sorry.

ALSO, for the love of God people, please vote on these bills when the time is appropriate.

I like PiT's idea.  That we're not enforcing it is a problem, but I think there is a lot of potential to that bill.

Doesn't the Speakership go to the legislator with the longest continuous service if the current Speaker declares absence?

As our Speaker has not won reelection, it appears we must start the process of electing a new one.

Thanks, Small L.  I'll accept your nomination, but I think the Emperor has to officiate this.

Well, I suppose it isn't a requirement, but that's the way it's been done before if my memory is correct.

Anyway, I suppose it doesn't matter.  You and Jack need to swear in before we can open the nomination/declaration period, though.

Fair enough.  I suppose the R&P doesn't mandate that you swear in if you aren't new.

I will run for Speaker.  We can begin voting in a day or so.

Voting is closed.  Scott is elected Speaker 3-0.



I thank the Legislature for entrusting me with this responsibility once again. Smiley

Now that the region has annexed the Canadian provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia, they will have to be incorporated in our districts map.  PiT, if I introduce a bill doing so, may I put it in the executive slot so we can get that out of the way?

Right now, the bill incorporating the new territories is at the top of my queue.

My ascension to the Emperorship has created a vacancy for the Speakership.  I will advise that the Legislature halt debate until a new Speaker can be elected, and that should probably wait until I find someone to appoint to my old seat.
