- Bill: Should an MP resign or lose their seat on Parliament, the following steps will be taken to find a replacement.
(1) MP resigns or is terminated.
(2) SoP releases a Google Form where one can nominate themselves or another player, nominations will be kept anonymous and nominations will only be seen by Parliament. The public will have 24 hours to do this.
(3) Parliament will discuss the nominees and vote on a potential candidate from the nominee pool. This will be done in 12 hours but may be extended by the SoP if necessary.
(4) SoP informs the potential candidate and candidate must agree to the candidacy. If the candidate does not accept, Parliament will head back to Step 3 and repeat the process.
