THE LORD-CHANCELLOR DEPOSITION ACT
A resolution to regulate and strip the powers of the Lord-Chancellor
AUTHOR: Vista Major, MPDATE: September the 4th, 2015 AD
PREAMBLE
It can be recognized by many that the Lord-Chancellor is a powerful position, held indefinitely by The Silver Bloods. However, his prolonged absences, combined with his great powers, the responsibilities thereof should be transferred.
ARTICLE I:The Lord-Chancellor shall be subjected to the Cabinet and Parliament.ARTICLE II:At any time, the Parliament or the Cabinet can strip some of the Lord-Chancellor's power and transfer it to an appropriate government body, or eliminated it entirely, via Parliament vote.ARTICLE III:However, the stripping of powers can only be done if the Lord-Chancellor has been inactive for at least 14 days.ARTICLE IV:
The Lord-Chancellor is to retain the title of being Head of State and protect the region when possible at all times, and powers relating to that cannot be stripped (unless in the case of an emergency).
ARTICLE V:
The powers of the Lord-Chancellor can be altered, if it will not affect the responsibilities expressed in Article IV.

I hereby endorse this bill. With Silver's numerous periods of inactivity, speedy action may someday be necessary in order to deal with the situation of the Lord-Chancellor.

Shouldn't this be an amendment?

Shouldn't this be an amendment? I do not believe so, but I will have the Chief Justice review it. |

Hello,
I have reviewed the law in regards to the Constitution and this would not be considered an Amendment. The Const. does not clearly define the role of the Lord Chancellor nor his legal status, expect through certain explained powers and authorities, therefore this law does not change anything that the Const. already has put in place it merely adds and or restricts new measures not defined.
It has my signature of approval as it's currently written.
