Emergency Legislation Act
Background:
The current legal system means that it can take a long time for any proposed legislation to take effect. The citizens of Egypt may conisder that on some issues action needs to be taken more quickly than the current legislative process allows.
The Proposal:
A Maximum of three Emergency Acts should be allowed each telling.
In order to begin a ballot for an "Emergency Act" a Demi Pharaoh, [or prior to the first DP election a grandson/granddaughter of a DP] must request an emergency petition from the University of Leadership.
Once this ballot is submitted with 21 or more votes an emergency ballot is triggered.
The Emergency ballot will be started within 24 hours of the petition being submitted.
The emergency ballot will last for 24 hours.
The emergency ballot must gain 2/3 approval in the ballot to pass into law.
If an emergency ballot is successful Pharaoh will endeavour to enact the legislation as soon as is practical.
