Quote from: Emergency Government Bill
Emergency Government intends to overcome deadlocks on democracy through absence of legal or legislative authorities.

2. Emergency Government can only be initiated by an elected Delegate.

3. The elected Delegate will cease Emergency Government when the democratically elected legislative branch and the head figure of the judicial branch are established.
4. After the cease of Emergency Government the terms of all branches are reset and have to swear oath accordingly as they were just elected or nominated.
5. All established citizens elected for legislative branch and nominated for judicial branch during Emergency Government will have full recognition as members of Senate and Justice accordingly after the cease of Emergency Government.

I request that my signature in the petition be removed in order to allow a revision of the proposed bill. This is an issue that has to be addressed and we now have the possibility to have a better bill.

For those that signed please remove your signature so the proposal can be revised: http://forum.taijitu.org/civic-center/petition-emergency-government-act/msg141807/#msg141807

Done. That said, it may be too late at this point to un-propose this. It won't prevent future proposals to continue with the current referendum, at least.

Signatures have been removed from the petition. I insist that the issues portrayed in this bill need to be addressed and now we have a good window of opportunity to create a better legislation.
