INTRODUCTION

This bill seeks to regulate issues of claiming requisitions that were previously unclaimed for a number of years and placing inconsistent expenditure burdens on the Imperial Treasury, seeking to place a statutory limitation on salary claims.

 

SECTION I: DEFINITIONS

1. “Secretaries” shall be referred to the Ministers of the Crown on the Council of State;

2. “Imperial Treasury” shall be the monetary department of the Imperial Government; 

3. “Monetary claim” shall be a monetary requisition to the Imperial Treasury;

 

SECTION II: 

On Ministry Budget Requisitions

1. Secretaries are obliged to claim salaries for their employees no later than one year after payment was originally due;

   1. Secretaries will be deemed to have made a sufficient monetary claim by way of communicating clearly through the established channels of Treasury requisitions;

2. If Secretaries fail to claim a year’s salaries within two years, the salaries are deemed to have been forfeited and shall not be paid, which applies retroactively;

3. The monetary claim will still be deemed valid if the Secretary requesting money, has submitted such claim, but the Treasury has failed to provide the monetary claim at the date notified by the monetary claim;

4. Secretaries, even after receiving salaries from monetary claims, who consistently fail to pay their employees shall be liable by the House of Commons, for impeachment under charges of negligence towards their responsibilities of their department.

   1. Such must be determined before proceeding towards an impeachment inquiry, such as through a Writ of Summons;

 

SECTION III

On General Backpayment Procedure

1. In pieces of legislation that dictates payment towards a group of people or entity, if said entity fails to create a monetary claim for said payment after no later than one year, this payment will be deemed forfeited, which applies retroactively;

   1. As similar to the aforementioned section, the monetary claim will still be deemed valid if the Treasury has failed to provide the monetary claim at the date notified by the monetary claim.
