Agenda
Regarding the adoption or rejection of proposals, article 9 of the treaty indicates: All proposed Council Regulations, Council Directives, Council Decisions, Council Recommendations, and other kinds of proposed acts and legislation by the Council of Heads of State and Government are adopted by triple two-thirds majority, meaning that the proposal is accepted if the favorable votes by their heads of state or government represent at least two-thirds of the member states, two-thirds of the total population of the member states of the Exumbran Convention, and two-thirds of the non-voluntary financial contributions to the Convention.
% contr. | % pop. | |
Adzhatia | 0.9% | 2.3% |
Chimor | 12.7% | 43.4% |
Dhram Pha | 0.3% | 3.0% |
Harrawi | 1.5% | 3.4% |
Huenan | 23.0% | 12.7% |
Khusqaikama | 2.9% | 3.1% |
Kpwahele & N | 0.0% | 0.1% |
Kronenburg | 58.3% | 31.4% |
New Courland | 0.4% | 0.6% |
This means that no proposal can be accepted without approval of Kronenburg and Chimor (together two thirds in both categories, and both larger than one third in one category). Therefore, any proposal is rejected if:
- Kronenburg votes against,
- Chimor votes against, and/or
- less than 6 countries vote in favour,
and is accepted otherwise.
