As
stated all People's Party Policies are subject to ratification by
a majority of the people.
Solely
as a basis for discussion we now put forward policy proposals as fundamental
principle's which we hope will be agreed by the majority of the people.
1)
Everyman should have the right to propose policies for debate and
vote.
All
people will be able to propose policies in their local congress.
The
people will initially vote on whether or not to debate all policy
proposals.
If
the majority of the local congress agrees to debate a proposal, said
proposal will be carried forward to debate in the next local congress.
The
proposal will be published in all forms of media, and every deputy
will be required to post their opinion regarding that proposal on
the Internet.
The
proposer of the policy will open the debate. The deputy with the most
support will speak next.
The
debate will then be open to the floor, and the chair will allow all
those wishing to participate to speak.
Following
the debate all present will vote, deputies casting block votes. The
local population will be allowed 24 hours to alter their deputies
vote, following which the result will stand and be carried forward
to the regional congress.
2) Everyman should have the right to vote on every policy.
3) Everyman should have the right to participate in the National Congress.
