I have updated the OP.

The position of Deputy Speaker is vacant—I don't think it's a good idea to have an Officer as Deputy Speaker. Of you're interested in the position, please let me know.

Hey guys, thanks for giving me your vote of confidence in confirming me as speaker. Really looking forward to serving the region in this capacity. I may have been the only choice but rest assured, you made the right one!

I've updated the OP and if anyone is interested in serving as Deputy Speaker please don't hesitate to let me know.

Question: as indicated in the “Speaker and Procedures of the Assembly Act”, the Speaker may “…revise statutes passed by the Assembly to correct typographical or clerical errors or make other non-substantive changes where expedient…” which makes sense and all, but, in that very same act articles 6 and 7 seem flipped. Like, they don’t flow as well due to 6 bringing up what the Deputy Speaker can do while 7 establishes the Deputy Speakership as a role. It’s very backwards.

I guess my question is, does this situation fall under the purview of the Speaker as suggested in article 5 or will the act need an amendment?

I think in this case flipping those two around would be okay since it wouldn't change the meaning of the act or anything. I also don't see it as particularly necessary though.

Also, as per our conversation on discord you are accepted as Deputy Speaker.

I am interested in serving as a Deputy Speaker if there's a vacancy for that position and should the Speaker require one.

Heya Folks
Looking for someone who hasn't been Speaker before to be Deputy Speaker, if you've thought about running for the role now is a great time to tip your toes into the water!

Off of the back of a short conversation on discord a while back with Grim and others, I've amended the titles of treaty threads in the legislation subforum to reflect the regions involved in the treaty (except TRR), where the title did not already reflect the involved region(s).

I have not done this for the Aegis Accords or Partnership for Regional Sovereignty due to their size.
