Honourable members of this august Frenzy,A BILL to AMEND the CAPRINE CODE of the
BOVIC EMPIRE of the NATOPIAN NATION
To assert proper Demesnal administration
Section Sixteen of the Caprine Code is updated accordingly, with blue text added:
4. In the event of the total collapse of a Demesne's government, the Imperial Chancellery will have the responsibility to maintain law and order within that Demesne until such as time as the local population reasserts its right to self-govern.
4.2 In the event of a Demesne's government showing no activity for three consecutive Natopian years, the Imperial Chancellery will have the right to maintain law and order within that Demesne until such time as the Demesne's government shows activity or is dissolved.
4.2 In the event of a Demesne's government showing no activity for six consecutive Natopian years, that government shall be automatically dissolved and the Imperial Chacnellery will have the responsibility to maintain law and order within that Demesne under 4. of this section.
I lay down a Bill before you today which has perhaps the simplest of goals that any Bill has had in recent times - to assert that the different regions of our Empire and properly and actively managed and governed. The Bill before you would allow the Imperial Chancellery to intervene, when necessary, three Natopian years after a local government's failure to do so and will ultimately oblige the Imperial Chancellery to do so if six years have passed since activity was last recorded.
