Constitution
It is possible for the Senate to grant the High Exorcist the right to vote on the Military Council - doing so would automatically allow the holder of the title to be present throughout the a Military Council session and to speak freely. The Warmage operates in such a way at present. However this would be a substantive change to the working of the Empire, so would require the approval of The Throne.
The Constitutional Scholars wish to point out that if the Synod elect a High Exorcist who has control of a congregation, then the High Exorcist will automatically benefit from the Right of Witness, and cannot then be excluded from a Military Council session.
