Title
This act shall be cited as the Initiatives Amendment Act.

Amendments
Section IV. Elections, subsection 5 shall be amended to read as follows:
5. A proposal shall be included in the next regular election if the greater of thirty percent rounded down or six Citizens who voted in the previous election, including the petitioner, sign the petition within seventy-two hours of its creation. The Monarch shall then verify that all signatories to the petition voted in the previous election.

Peers (myself, @Wintermoot, @Aragonn, @Cinciri and @trader) may now vote Aye, Nay, or may Abstain from voting.

While I dislike acts where the act itself fails to distinctly dictate what it is amending (we all can assume it is the Fundamental Laws of Wintreath, but it doesn't really say), I have found precedent in existing amendments where this has happened (see The Judicial Reform Amendment Act as an example). I do however fully support increasing time of petitions.

Aye

I shall remind peers (@Wintermoot, @Aragonn, @Cinciri and @trader) that there are less than 48 hours available on this vote.

Aye

With two votes for and three automatic abstentions, I declare this has PASSED the Storting, and is now pending ratification.
