An act to establish the legal and military title of Governor-General, what their duties shall entail, what powers they may have, and when and where the position of Governor General is to be created and used. 

 

INTRODUCTION

 

The title and role of Governor-General shall be a dual role, serving in both the legislative and military capacity. When a state enters a State of Emergency the local government may be suspended by law, and the introduction of the Governor General (G.G) implemented. 

 

SECTION I:

 

To define the legal authorization of the title of Governor General.

 

1. The Governor General is confirmed by His Majesty personally.
2. The Governor General is responsible to His Majesty and his council.
3. The position and title of Governor General may only be created in the case of formal entry into a State of Emergency.

 

SECTION II:

 

To define the role and duties of the Governor General.

 

1. The Governor General in his Majesty’s name, may assert his personal authority over both the Legislative and Military branch of the government in the state in question. 
2. The Governor General may appoint, or renew a Senator’s term should it end during a State of Emergency.
3. The Governor General may suspend offices and duties from those he judges to be disloyal to His Majesty’s Government.
4. The Governor General may revoke titles and lands from those nobles he judges to be disloyal to His Majesty’s Government.
   1. Permanent revocation will be put to question during postwar trials of rebels. 
5. The Governor General may exercise all powers granted to him by the Emergency Resolution Act without legal impunity during or after his tenure. 
6. Once the State of Emergency ends but the suspension of titlage remains. The transition from Governor General to civil governance shall be treated as a Personal Union with a Viceroy reigning over the state. The Viceroy will be nominated by the local authorities and given assent by the Emperor.
