[Policy Framework] CF for Document Standar

[Zakyyr Angus-Moonoak]

His Royal Majesty has invited representatives of Flaventia and the Elian Lands. He reminds them of the amazingly positive atmosphere in which they together with the Royal Tsardom signed the Common Inter-Demesnial Policy Framework two years ago. In the spirit of making further progress, he proposes for discussion the first Conceptual Framework:

The Conceptual Framework for Document Standardisation
By this Statues and Membership Regulation, the Signatory Demesnes establish among themselves a Conceptual Framework for Document Standardisation, hereinafter called ‘the Conceptual Framework’.

Section 1. The Conceptual Framework sets itself the following objectives:
a) To establish a set of standards, rules and guidelines for official documents issued by or in Signatory Demesnes.
b) To establish a common Document Verification and Acceptance Policy, which shall regulate the verification and acceptance of documents of one Signatory Demesne by another.

Section 2. Document Standards and Standardisation
a) Document Standards are the set of standards, rules and guidelines applicable to official documents issued by or in Signatory Demesnes. Such standards are for each document to:
o Be written on a headed sheet of paper, or on another material used in a Signatory Demesne.
o Be written in an official language of the Signatory Demesne of issue.
o Be human readable, that is the representation of data or information can be naturally read by humans.
o Be dated and, if applicable, signed and/or sealed by the body of issue.
o Be descriptive of its purpose, goals, implications and/or nature.
o Be impossible, or nearly impossible, to falsify, improperly replicate or in any other way be imitated.
b) The Document Standards are applicable to all institutional or other legal entities of the Signatory Demesnes and each is obliged to assert the proper adherence to these standards.
c) Failure to assert the proper adherence to these Document Standards by a Signatory Demesne may be subject to financial and other sanctions, or if repeated, to expulsion from this Conceptual Framework.

Section 3. Document Verification and Acceptance Policy
a) The Document Verification and Acceptance Policy regulates the verification and acceptance of documents of one Signatory Demesne by another, as well as within a Signatory Demesne.
b) Verification of a Standardised Document is the process of asserting the originality, accuracy and validity of such document.
o Verification shall be served by a database populated and maintained by each Signatory Demesne. This database shall be populated with up-to-date data about each Standardised Document issued within a Signatory demesne, and shall be accessed by all Signatory Demesnes.
o Each Signatory Demesne shall be responsible for maintaining the accuracy of the data in its database.
o Access to data in the database by certain institutional and other legal entities may be restricted by the Signatory Demesne owning the database. Data shall always be accessible by all the Demesnal governments of the Signatory Demesnes.
c) Acceptance of a Standardised Document is the act of successful verification of a Standardised Document.
o No institutional or other legal entity of a Signatory Demesne can refuse to accept a Standardised Document if that Standardised Document has successfully passed the verification process.

Section 4. This Conceptual Framework comes into effect upon its ratification by at least one Signatory Demesne of the Common Inter-Demesnial Policy Framework.
