This shall amend the Assembly Procedure Act to allow for residents to participate in Assembly discussions, with the sensitive ones remaining private.
Section 1. Amendment of the Assembly Procedure Act
(1) Section 2, Legislative Procedures, shall be amended to include:
(9) The Assembly Speaker may determine for discussions to take place privately. The Assembly Speaker may accordingly move discussions to and from the Assembly's private forum under their discretion. However, discussion of treaties or discussions on the removal of those holding appointed or elected positions will begin as private and only viewable to Citizens. Non-citizens may comment during public discussions. All threads at vote shall be visible only to Citizens and be made in view of all Citizens.
(2) Section 2, Legislative Procedures previously read:
(9) The Assembly Speaker will determine which discussions will take place publicly and which will take place privately. All new discussions must be started privately. The Speaker may then accordingly move discussions to and from the Assembly's private forum, except that the Prime Minister may determine whether proposals to enact, amend, or repeal treaties will be public or private. Non-citizens may comment during public discussions. All voting threads and threads discussing treaties or declarations of war shall be visible only to Citizens. All votes must be made in view of the whole Assembly.
