General Assembly Responsibilities

(5) As the chief representative of the Independent Order to the World Assembly it is the duty and responsibility of the WA Delegate to vote in accordance with the majority opinion of the WA Members on any Resolution presently At Vote before the General Assembly.

(6) This vote shall be determined by the voting tally as noted with the Resolution at vote, accessible via the Details link included with the Resolution At Vote.

(7) The Delegate shall check this tally daily and must change his or her vote to match the majority opinion of Independent WA Members.

Security Council Responsibilities

(9) The Speaker may defer this vote to the majority opinion of Independent WA Members in cases of Commendations and Condemnations with the advice and consent of the Premier. In such cases the WA Delegate shall follow the same procedure used when voting for General Assembly votes to determine the majority opinion of Independent WA Members.

(10) Recognizing the political implications of Liberation proposals a vote of the Senate shall determine the vote cast by the WA Delegate when a Liberation is At Vote before the Security Council. Upon certification by the Speaker the WA Delegate shall be directed to cast his or her vote as determined by the Senate vote.
