    Title
    1. This act is to be cited as the Citizenship Requirements Rectification Act

    Amendments
    2. Section 2.1 is amended to read as follows:
    Quote
    Citizens are required to keep the nation which they gained cembership with within the region unless they inform the person (or government agency) empowered to accept or reject citizenship applications in accordance with relevant law of a change in Citizenship Nation, with the new nation they wish to designate as their Citizenship nation. Citizens that have made five posts on the Wintreath forums during the previous calendar month, after their second month of citizenship, are exempted from this requirement.
    3. Section 2.1.2 is repealed
    4. Section 2.1.1 is repealed
    I wrote this act while I was writing the text for another amendment to this act. This mainly fixes an issue that was introduced with the Community Citizenship Amendment Act.

    This is mainly due to how the Community Citizenship Amendment Act modified Section 2.1 (then Section 2.2) of the Citizenship to allow for people to retain citizenship by just making five posts on the forum. This reverts the text back to what it was prior to the amendment, with the addition of the five post alternative requirement, and also removes the specific reference to a Section of this act, replacing it with "in accordance with relevant law".

    The issue itself is that the law required you retain the nation with which you obtained Membership within Wintreath with. Aside from the fact that "membership" is not defined or used elsewhere within the law, it also technically would prohibit the changing of your Citizenship nation, due to the wording.

  • Firstly, you spelled cembership instead of membership in the first line of section 2. Secondly, while the act itself is an obvious amendment to the Citizenship and Demonym Act, you don't actually cite that in the act, meaning this act technically does nothing as it's amending nothing.

    Is that a requirement? I thought the original act had to be stated in the title of the amendment act, at least that's how we've always done it.

    It's more a personal preference kind of thing, I personally would say "2. Section 2.1 of the Citizenship and Demonym Act is amended to read as follows:" then not mention it again as it can be assumed that the same act is where the repeals come in but that's just me. Either way he makes no mention of the act he's amending at all so.
