Party Introduction
The Democratic Conservative Party is a party dedicated to providing a democratic regional process, which holds the democratic rights of each member nation as number one. The Conservative element is introduced as a way of marking our opposition to any Socialist reforms which are aimed at equality.
Structure and Elections
The DCP is made up of a Council of Chairmen, who's job is to overlook the selection process for elections. Each election will allow for our party to put forward two (can someone correct me if I'm wrong here?) candidates for a position. Members of the party will have to convince the three strong Council that they should be selected. The Council will then vote on their preferred candidate.
Party leadership is contested every three months. Any member can enter, and the rest of the party who are not candidates will have the opportunity to elect their chosen leader. Each leadership candidate will have to put forward their personal manifesto to detail what they would do, should they win the leadership. The party leader is responsible for leading the party in the INURC and setting forward party policy. if 25% of party members agree, an early leadership election will be held.
The Council of Chairmen will hold elections for their positions every four months. Similar to the leadership election, anyone not running for Chairman status can vote. The job of the council is to, as was stated above, select election candidates, as well as recruit new party members and co-ordinate party members in the INURC.
Current Party Stance
Citizenship - No
The party is opposed to Citizenship as it will remove the ability for nations that are active infrequently to adequately become involved. It is more likely that an infrequently active nation will become involved from time to time if they do not have to worry about citizenship.
Interregional Government - No
The party currently takes the line that whilst all efforts must be made to ensure that friendly ties to other regions are retained, it is not within the INU's best interests to allow for an interregional government to become existent. It will only work to lessen even further the strength of smaller and independent voices within the regional Parliament.
Regional Government Structure - Change
We feel that the current structure of government is inadequate to serving the democratic process within the region best. The alternative proposal offered is:
-A Legislature, which is made up of 15% of the population. Elections are held every three months. Every member nation of the region can vote for any other nation, and the top 15% of nations with the most votes enter the INURC.
-From here, a government is formed. The government must have a majority in the INURC. The governments roles are 'Foreign Minister', who oversees recruitment and interregional relations, 'Chancellor', who oversees economic roleplay, 'Justice Secretary', who overlooks rules and enforces them, and then finally 'Prime Minister', who is the executive and who proposes legislation.
-The members of the INURC vote on legislation. If it is passed, it is passed as a law. If it is not, the defeated bill can then be turned into a regional referendum if it has the support of at least one government member.
-If the referendum is passed, it then becomes law, despite its defeat in the INURC.
