Repeal: “Preparing For Disasters”
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
Category: Repeal
Resolution: GA#105
Proposed by: Morover
General Assembly Resolution #105 “Preparing for Disasters” (Category: International Security; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The General Assembly,
Acknowledging and appreciating the good intentions of Resolution 105, “Preparing For Disasters,” in its aid to international coordination in the leadup to natural and artificial disasters,
Aware that Resolution 105 does a reasonably good job in achieving its goal,
Concerned, however, at several potentially negative implications reaching beyond the scope of the resolution, such as:
i. Clause two mandating that the World Assembly Disaster Bureau provide “all the help that a nation requests in [inspections mandated],” regardless of the nation’s actual need of help, potentially opening the door for malicious states to drain the funds of the World Assembly General Fund by requesting unnecessary assistance that the Bureau is required to provide,
ii. Clause seven requiring the World Assembly Disaster Bureau to share research regarding technologies used to assist in responding to disasters with all nations, regardless of the nation’s World Assembly member status or any other potential applications of the technology, meaning that any research found by the Bureau that may prove hazardous or otherwise dangerous if in the wrong hands must be shared with all nations, including malicious actors,
iii. Clause eight instructing the World Assembly Disaster Bureau to work with all World Assembly organizations, regardless of relevance or necessity to the overarching goal of the Bureau, which could prove to be burdensome as the network of World Assembly organizations expands,
Believing that, regardless of whatever good Resolution 105 provides, the negative consequences that the language of the resolution allows necessitates repeal,
Hoping that, following the repeal of Resolution 105, a suitable replacement will be promptly passed, ultimately minimizing whatever negative effect will be felt by not having a resolution of this topic on the books,
Hereby repeals Resolution 105, “Preparing For Disasters.”
