This is an area that I'm campaigning on because I firmly believe that our Ministries are not working as well as they could be. During my tenure these past four months as Deputy Director of Public Relations, it has become apparent that things need a bit of fixing. I have not done that much with my position, I have had issues contacting my Director and getting feedback and responses from them, and at many times I was unsure of what I should be doing -- or even what I
CAN do. If elected I intend to fix this issue -- at least to some extent.
Now, to do this I will be overhauling the Ministries we have now almost entirely. Each Ministry we have will get a Mandate -- a written document outlining the goals and purpose of the Ministry, the authorities of each Minister and Deputy Minister, and the division of tasks and responsibilities among the members of each Ministry. Furthermore each of these Mandates would be drafted along with each Minister to ensure they are best suited for the Ministry and that they may be more flexible than they otherwise would be. However I don't expect merely a change such as issuing a written Mandate to each Ministry to be enough, I intend to entirely reorganize each Ministry so that they are better separated. My intention is to roughly have these as the Ministries:
- Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Department of Public Relations) - Same as the current Department of Public Relations but without the World Assembly aspect.
- Ministry of Internal Affairs (Department of Internal Affairs) - They would be responsible for things such as Integration/Immigration and the World Assembly among other things.
- Ministry of Culture (Department of Company Culture) - They would be responsible for organizing events and other cultural activities within the Region -- along with aiding inter-regional activities.
Further each Ministry would -- ideally -- be subdivided further in order to make sure that no singular person -- or people -- has too much on their plate at once. The exact divisions would be up to the Ministers, although I do have rough ideas for such subdivisions. I will admit that who exactly would be in my Cabinet is still being worked on as I have several candidates I am deciding between. Mandates would be reviewed regularly and will expire if they are not, so that the Ministries are not bound by old measures.
Further, this proposal (with more information) will be presented to the Assembly for feedback and review if I am elected
