[RESOLUTION] Resolution on Executive Transparency

The Magisterium
1

This is a topic that may need its own actual law, because executive transparency, as noted in the findings section, is completely up to the Executive. I’m all for a law like this, but until or unless that happens, here we go. You may notice I’m going res crazy. This is not the end. There are two more that may or may not happen, all related to making the Executive more consistent/accountable, at the very least on paper. Things I don’t feel comfortable forcing through law (at least not myself) but do feel comfortable nudging about through res.

Strongly Seconded

I think it’s clear but at the same time vague enough to give place to different platforms where the transparency disclosures can happen. Good

4

I know I didn’t preclude the possibility, but maybe we should consider whether or not we want a Transparency Act of some sort before I just go forward with this.

Since no one’s replying, I will pingpong on discord

I withdraw this bill, or close this topic, or whatever sponsor power I have to end this discussion, as the magisters I spoke to desired some transparency law.
