Hey folks, I think it'd be pretty nifty if we drafted a proposal, and submitted it to the WA, just to see how it goes down. Obviously it should be something we care about, but also something that politically would get lots of support. We can even give it a test run on the official NS forums for discussion of WA proposals. I think our proposal should be a Human Rights thing, personally. perhaps something thats in the news these days, the Airline Passengers bill of rights? or something to that effect. thoughts? |

I'm not a WA person, so won't take too much part here. Please please please don't make it a Security Council resolution though. |

I would LOVE a resolution that bans that stupid forum topics on "the person above you" - be it whether you like the person's flag, motto, signature, deodorant or whatever. Condemn them. Now. |

lol but i dont think WA resolutions affect the forum? They're just symbolic, recommendations like the UN. so it can't be anything with any actual consequences. i mean, i could condemn them, but we'd need a target and we'd need to involve ourselves with the security council. Its for another time, in my opinion. |

WA proposal concerning freedom of speech. No region or nation shall be prevented from their freedom of speech and freedom of expression. Its an obvious one for all of us, but it would be good to reaffirm this right. And EA your really getting into this position, its good. About time we have an active delegate. |

A lot of topics have been taken, but there are a few we WA regulars haven't gotten around to yet. You'll find that pretty much all civil and political rights are already guaranteed by a resolution, so don't bother with that. Also, remember that the WA can't form an armed force of any kind whatsoever. Something like, say, a resolution regarding clean drinking water, or the formal status of PMC's in combat would be a good idea at this point. But for the most part we've already taken care of the obvious ones. |

PMC's are a good one. we almost talked about that at a Model UN conference i went to. or, perhaps, we could do something about providing internet to all communities. a resolution to provide high speed internet to all parts of the world, or something. because i think there is an initiative going on, i dont know if its UN supported though. |

A universal internet proposal would probably be shot down. If not for the expense alone, then because of the logistics difficulties, not to mention that I don't think man people would consider the internet a "universal right". |

lets go with the PMC's, then. How about this:

It seems a bit vague to me - how does one agree to a "cap on money' spent without knowing what the cap is? Similarly, if there is to be a restriction on the quantity of troops, what is the limit? |

The percentages are arbitrary, but the best i could come up with without doing further research

Important advice, DON'T create standards, quotas, limits, etc. yourself within the text of the proposal. Instead, become acquainted with the WA legislators best friend: the comittee. Create an aprporiately named WA organization and invest in it the power to make limits and regulations, as well as conduct inspections. That way, you avoid setting arbitrary limits yourself. |

aha! that is a good idea! also, just when this comes up: A comittee would fall under the "MILD" option, right? here are the forms i need to fill out for a WA resolution: Council: General Assembly (Duh) Category: Global Disarmament (I'm suggesting a reduction in military spending, so thats what this one is) Resolution name: (What do you folks think it should be called? Cleverness is always good!) Description: (The Resolution itself) Strength: Mild, Significant, or Strong. This is the only one i'm not sure of. So what do you guys think of THAT? In the meantime, i will be re-drafting my resolution to create a committee. [EDIT] For Reference on the Strength issue, i found this quote on their forums:
