Thankyou. The name is a little deceptive maybe. It hides the true extent of this ammendment.

Re: DT2005-061 - Inactive Party Ammendment
Well you can only close the party if there are no active citizens in it. The Home Office is the responsibly body for the regulation and acquisition of citizenship levels therefore the best for the job. In part the Home Office is responsible for the approval of party applications too.
Its only natural.

I believe that the home office , even if i am for this period in charge of it , should have resposibilities as long as it is not accuses the liberty of the indivinduals

Re: DT2005-061 - Inactive Party Ammendment
Well the whole point is that for this legislation to come into effect the party would have no civil liberties as it would have no active citizens as members!!!

This has been passed by two votes to one by the Dáil. It will now be opened for an 'open' referendum in the Courtyard.
If it passes there it will be given to the President to sign.
