There shall be no limit on the total number of Members of Parliament. Each Member of Parliament shall possess one vote and have equal status with all other Members of Parliament. Each Member must be a unique individual; no Member is permitted to maintain any more than one identity in Parliament. All Members of Parliament shall serve for life.

The President shall have the following duties: the President must collect each motion proposed by Members of Parliament and hold them under consideration for Parliament in consecutive order; the President must tally all votes for and against a considered motion and declare the motion passed or rejected as in accordance with this Constitution; the President must maintain civil order in Parliament; the President must, in event of a tied vote in Parliament, provide the tie-breaking vote, but in all other cases refrain from voting; and the President must remain impartial and nonpartisan.
  8.

The President Pro-Tempore shall have all the same duties as the President while acting.
  9. Section III. All Members of Parliament have the right to propose motions to the Parliament. There must be a minimum of one-third of the total Members of Parliament present for a motion to be considered. A motion under consideration by Parliament must receive a simple majority vote of the Members of Parliament present to be passed to the Executives for approval unless otherwise stated. Once a motion is passed, it shall be sent to the Executives to be approved.
  10. Should one Executive approve the motion and the other abstain or also approve, the motion shall be considered ratified and put into effect. Should one or both Executives reject the motion, the vetoing Executive(s) must return a list of corrections and amendments to the motion to Parliament that would result in an approval if adopted. Parliament may then make the given corrections and amendments or pass the motion with a three-fifths majority of Members present, if one Executive vetoed; or with a three-fourths majority of Members present, if both Executives vetoed. If a motion is passed in this manner, the motion is to be considered ratified and put into effect.

The Chancellor shall be elected by simple majority vote of the Members of Parliament from among the several Members. The Vice-Chancellor shall be the candidate with the second-highest number of votes in the same election. The Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor shall serve a term of one week after being elected before the next election for the office of Chancellor is held. Chancellors once elected must relinquish their Member of Parliament powers until their time in office has ended.

  18. Section III. The Chancellor may be removed by Parliament, should the Members obtain a two-thirds majority vote of all Members in favor of removal.
  19. If a Chancellor is removed in this manner, the Vice-Chancellor shall assume the office of Chancellor and serve the remainder of the term before the next election for Chancellor is held as normal.

The Kaiser may reject no more than two nominees in such a manner for the same position in the same nomination process.
  23. The Kaiser may appoint a Viceregent to serve as acting Kaiser while the Kaiser is inactive. The Kaiser may designate a Prince as successor to the Throne.
  24. Section VIII. The Kaiser shall not be removable by vote of Parliament except when he has demonstrated a mental incapacity to serve as Kaiser or when he has remained inactive for more than three days without notifying Parliament in advance. In such an event, the Prince will then ascend to the Throne and become Kaiser. If there is no designated Prince, the Parliament may elect a new Kaiser by a two-thirds majority vote of all Members of Parliament.
  25. The Kaiser may also choose to abdicate his Throne, at which point the same procedure for succession will apply as described above.

Justices appointed from among the Members of Parliament must relinquish their Member of Parliament powers until their time in office has ended.
  29. Section II. Each motion shall, upon ratification, be scrutinized by the Supreme Court as to its accordance with the Constitution, existing ratified motions, and previous rulings by the Court. Each scrutinized motion shall be deliberated upon and then voted on by the five Justices, and a simple majority vote in favor of the motion shall be sufficient to allow the motion to stand ratified. Should a majority of the Justices vote against the motion, the motion shall be rejected. The deliberation and vote by the Justices on any motion must not exceed a period of twenty-four hours; should the Justices fail to reach a decision by then, the motion shall be considered ratified and put into effect.
