Comm Id: Chairman Mal
Fellow Delegates,
The vote on Elder Sephardi's propsal regarding Omega 49 has been tallied. I'd like to again thank Secretary Reynolds for his diligence in recording the vote.
Here are the results:
For the Proposal: 0 Votes
Against the Proposal: 28 Votes
Abstentions: 3
Not Voting!: 18
The "Sephardi Proposal" is defeated.
While I feel that Elder Sephardi and the Brotherhood sincerely wish to maintain good relations with this Council, I must sadly agree with the majority that the time may not be yet right for such sweeping changes in our diplomatic standings with not only the Corsairs, but with those groups who might see this Proposal as a threat to Zoner neutrality for all.
I have received a private message from Elder Sephardi requesting permission to address the Council following its decision, and have agreed to his request. Please stand by for his transmission.
Due to the large number of non-voting Delegates in the last two votes, I would like Secretary Reynolds to review the Archives, with a view to expelling those Delegates who have been "inactive", pursuant to Council policies.
Thank you again, Delegates. I will present our Revised Draft of Council Policies immediately after Elder Sephardi has concluded his transmisson to the Council.
