Priority: High.
Topic: Division of material resources.
The directors of the BMM and the regional Bretonian administrators of the IMG have been welcomed to this channel in order to reach an official settlement on the division of mineral fields within the realm of Bretonia. The intention of these regulations is to minimise friction and conflict between local corporate concerns, respect the commercial rights and claims of involved parties and ensure the unimpaired flow of mineral goods to the public and private markets.
Following a successful conclusion to negotiations, these changes will be submitted as an amendment to the Bretonian legal charter and enforced by all Crown agencies. This alteration will be well published and advertised to ensure subcontractors are not caught unaware by the changes. Following an educational grace period of approximately 2 New London standard weeks, it will become a criminal act to trespass within a claimed mineral field.
The Bretonian government is willing to enshrine in legislation the following claims:
Cambridge:
Dublin:
Leeds:
Omega-3
Upon the initiation of enforcement, contravening miners and transports will be evicted from the respective field and fined a credit sum proportional to the scale of the violation. The exact figure of this fine is entrusted to the handling officer’s discretion. In the case of an officer being unable to attend to a violation, infringements may be reported to the BPA and enforced retroactively. Repeatedly violating a commercial claim / exclusivity order is considered contempt for Bretonian law, and will result in an arrest warrant being issued for the offending vessel’s captain, and docking permissions for Bretonian stations being withdrawn.
It is important to note that commercial claims do not bestow sovereign ownership of territory, which is the sole right of the Bretonian Crown. All territory either sold, leased or claimed is considered to be temporarily devolved from this font of authority. A successful commercial claim merely signifies that the Bretonian courts recognise the legitimacy of exclusive use by a party or organisation.

We hope both parties will find the above agreeable.
