Scrutiny
- This motion was ruled by the Constitutional Court to require a constitutional vote - it was duly passed by the Senate and ratified by the Throne.
This motion required ratification by the Senate as it was judged to represent a considerable shift in power from individual nations and their generals to the Imperial Military Council.
In the final process of scrutiny, it was identified that the appointment of the Quartermaster General could fall within the provenance of the Senate rather than the Military Council - due to the appointment method for this Imperial title which allowed for input from both houses. As a result, the motion was ruled unconstitutional - with the recommendation to raise an administrative motion to change the method of appointment of the Quartermaster General - to be by majority vote of the Military Council. If this administrative motion is passed by the Imperail Senate - then the motion will pass into law.
