The Overhusen Appointment Amendment Bill has passed the Underhusen, and is now presented to the Overhusen for review and consideration. Peers may vote Aye, Nay, or Abstain...also, while it's not required, it has been requested that we give our reasoning behind our votes when we make them. Before voting, you may wish to peruse the Underhusen's debate topic, which is here: http://wintreath.com/forums/index.php?topic=623.0

Title
   1. This Bill shall be cited as the Overhusen Appointment Amendment Bill.

Amendment
   2. Article 6 of the Fundamental Laws of Wintreath shall be amended to read as follows:

6. The Monarch shall announce his or her appointments and reappointments to the Overhusen at the conclusion of elections for the Underhusen. The Monarch shall at the same time also appoint a Chairperson of the Overhusen, who shall execute the procedural rules established by the Overhusen. In the event of a vacancy, the Monarch shall have the authority to appoint a new peer to fill the vacancy.

Ahem.

Oh yeah, aye.

Call me slow, but it took me a while to realize what was being amended. 

Aye.

Aye.

Obviously this Amendment has surpassed the requisite 2/3 super-majority to pass. However, the vote will remain open to allow Butterspring to register an official vote if he would like.

This Amendment will now go to vote.

Sorry, was on a trip. That's an aye.
