VA BIRODEO HERZENAV AG EDLERVIK,

For long, it has been clear to those more perceptive of the Royal Duma that the state of His Majesty's Government has been one of depreciation. Since the transition to Almaris, and the times of Lord Speaker Igor Kort and the Triumvirate, the number of elected seats has reduced from seven (four Tribune, two Royal Aldermen and one Grand Maer) to four (two Royal Aldermen, one Grand Maer, and Military Tribune), yet despite this, while those aforementioned seven had no shortage of eager subjects to fill them, the recent seats, with the exception of Military Tribune, have struggled to even pull the need for proper elections. In the 454 E.S nomination period, run by the now King Georg I, only two subjects ran for Royal Aldermen, filling them by default, while the Grand Maer went unused for the entirety of the term.

 

In the recent nomination period, the same but worse has afflicted the Royal Duma. Only one subject has nominated themselves for the available Royal Aldermen seats, while the Grand Maer once again saw no nominees. This deterioration of interest in the Royal Duma has long been noted, however little has been done by Kings of Yore to mend such an issue, due to more pressing matters throughout their reigns. With the more inward focus of King Georg I, however, the opportunity has now presented itself for the issue to be worked upon. It is due to this development that the Lord Speaker does hereby decree:

 

I. -That the sole nominee for the available Alderman seats, Firress Annette von Theonus, shall be granted one of the available seats to serve as Royal Alderwoman for the entirety of this upcoming term.

II. -That any future interested subjects of either remaining seats may make a petition to the Lord Speaker, detailing their reasoning for wishing to serve in His Majesty’s government, along with any goals they have for their time in the respective position. Gathering signatures from the public is highly encouraged, to show the hopeful member of the Royal Duma holds the support of the Haeseni people.

III. -That the Lord Speaker and His Royal Majesty shall soon begin reforms of His Majesty’s Royal Duma, in order to breathe new life into the institution as well as to properly outline the powers of the members of government.
