==Australia Nova Romana Association==
Australia Nova Romana (ANR) is the name given to the association in Australia that represents the Nova Roma Oceania chapter and subsidiary in the region. It is presently an unincorporated association by Australian legal definition.

To meet our obligations under the Australasian Living History Federation (ALHF) and to satisfy the local state law requirements for a not-for-profit (planned), ANR now maintains official association rules. These rules are designed to only be the basic bare-minimum framework required under local law, simply describing how we already do business as Nova Roma provincially, adapted to the legislation of Nova Roma and paying credence to the authority of the Nova Roma senate.

*[http://www.novaroma.org/vici/images/ANR_Rules_-_Incorporated_Association-2022-02-15.pdf ANR Association Official Rules, Feb 2022]

To learn more about how we locally handle personal data, please see the ANR [https://austnovaroma.wixsite.com/provincia-australia/privacy-policy privacy policy].

===Australasian Living History Federation===
ANR now provides public liability insurance to citizens resident in Australia. The Australasian Living History Federation (ALHF) recognizes ANR as an association within Australia. Unfortunately, citizens resident in the New Zealand cannot yet benefit from this membership. For a small fee (approximately $25 AUD) induvial citizens may become members of ALHF through ANR and be permitted to conduct public activities with liability coverage and be authorized under Australian law to carry authentic Roman weapons and artifacts, such as a gladius, hasta-tipped vexilla, fasces etc. Citizens can also be authorized to conduct public displays and religious sacrifices utilizing fires or fire sources.

Citizens can apply for membership with ALHF at any time by contacting the [mailto:australia.novaroma@outlook.com provincial praetorium].

*[http://www.novaroma.org/vici/images/ANR_-_Authenticity_Rules_2022-02-15.pdf ANR Authenticity Rules]

[[Image:ALHF (Australia) logo.jpg|left|link=https://www.alhf.org.au/index.html]] 

===Request for Event or Activity===
Citizens can now plan with, and have their public events endorsed by, ANR (the governor and his staff) to have their event covered by ALHF supplied insurances. Citizens should lodge the following application to the praetorium to host an event:

*[http://www.novaroma.org/vici/images/Australia_Nova_Romana_Application_for_Activity_or_Event.pdf Provincia Australia - Request for Event or Activity Approval] (Word version is available, contact the [mailto:australia.novaroma@outlook.com praetorium])

Citizens and Nova Roma municipalities in Provincia Australia should use this application if hosting an event or activity:

:a. in public, for the public or on public property;
:b. that uses any form of weapon (real or perceived);
:c. that will use any fire or open flame;

:e. that includes any actions considered risky or dangerous;
:f. when 10 or more members are planned to attend;
:g. where there is doubt about the safety of attending members;
:h. where the organisers deem liability coverage is necessary.

===Municipality Documentation & Reporting===
Formal documentation and registration of [[Municipalities (Nova Roma)|municipalities]] are managed in accordance with ''[[Provincia_Australia_-_Praetorium_(Nova_Roma)#Edictum_73.05_-_Edictum_Provinciale_de_Albis_Vicorum_Municipiorumque|Edictum 73.05 - Edictum provinciale de albis vicorum municipiorumque]]''.

II. I am pleased to see Nova Roma continuing to connect with Roman-themed groups throughout Australia. It is with pleasure once more that I have the opportunity to declare a new partnership with Legio IV Urbana of the Mare Nostrvm association. Pursuant to the memorandum of understanding, signed pr. Id. Sext. ‡ P. Aurelio C. Flavio cos. ‡ MMDCCLXXVIII a.u.c., Legio IV of the city of Brisbane, Queensland, is hereby recognised as an Allied Military Reenactment Unit of the exercitus populi Novi Romani quiritium, in accordance with the lex Aurelia de legionibus.

I hereby appoint Nova Roman citizen, D Arminius Brutus as the commander of the legio, as praefectus legionis, Rank III official in accordance with article III.A.7.d.ii of the Lex Arria de censu civium aestimando, praefectus legionis IV Urbana Australia.

He will provide updates and reporting to the governor on events and activities.

IV. I am particularly drawn to this group for their depictions of the ancient Roman Republic era. A small but active group, they are led by a long-time Nova Roman citizen who is passionate about all things ancient Rome. As the local representative of Nova Roma, I look forward to our joint partnership into the future and sharing in the living-history and revivalism of ancient Rome.

V. The authority for such appointment and decree emanates from the lex Aurelia de legionibus and will remain in effect until either party retracts the memorandum signed by all parties which outlines the specific application of this lex.

I encourage citizens to contact Legatus Gaius Sempronius on any provincial matters.

These awards are considered an ‘Award for Nova Roma achievement’ as permissible to be granted by governors under III.F.3 of the lex Arria de censu civium aestimando. Provincial citizens can be recognised for any of the following awards:

:A. Civis Provincialis Hujus Anni (Provincial Citizen of the Year) – The premier award of the year, citizens are nominated by a vote of the Consilium Provinciae.

''Edict for the foundation of the Australian Twitch channel''

I. In my capacity as Legatus Pro Praetore Australiae bestowed upon me by the Senate under Senatus consultum ultimum de rectoribus provinciarum, with the authority granted to me under Lex Vedia Provincialis, I may proclaim those edicta (edicts) necessary to engage in those tasks which advance the mission and function of Nova Roma.

II. I hereby formalise and sanction the “Australia Nova Romana” Twitch channel (http://www.twitch.tv/austnovaroma). This channel will be a broadcast channel dedicated to all things Roman for, and within, Provincia Australia. To be managed through the Consilium Provinciae, all provincial and global Nova Roma citizens are invited to not only watch the live streams, but to host their own Roman related segment through this channel on Roman topic(s) of their choosing.

III. “Twitch” is a video live streaming service operated by Twitch Interactive, a subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc. Introduced in June 2011, the site primarily focuses on video game live streaming, including broadcasts of esports competitions, in addition to music broadcasts, creative content, and more recently, "in real life" streams. Content on the site can be viewed either live or via video on demand. As of February 2020, it had 3 million broadcasters monthly and 15 million daily active users, with 1.4 million average concurrent users.

IV. It is intended that, upon obtaining ‘Twitch Affiliate’ status, the channel is to be offered to the Senate of Nova Roma so that the Republic would benefit from subscription funding that is received via this channel. Through negotiations, and if then sanctioned by higher magistrates or the Senate body, I, as the current channel owner will convert the accounts as necessary to relinquish control for the benefit of the Republic. Control would then be ultimately governed by the Praetors like other Nova Roma forums, unless otherwise determined by the Senate.

V. Potential streamers wishing to contribute programming to this Roman channel may do so by verifying available timeslots on this calendar: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0?cid=Nmk3YnVxbnRwMHVrbjByNmh1dHE0aWRha29AZ3JvdXAuY2FsZW5kYXIuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbQ. They should then send an email to the ''[mailto:australia.novaroma@outlook.com praetorium]'' with their concept and preferred time to broadcast. The Consilium Provinciae will provide assistance as necessary.

II. In order to maintain efficient oversight of Governor sanctioned vici and Senate sanctioned municipia within Provincia Australia, I hereby issue this edict.

II. As has been the custom in Nova Roma for years, provinces often adopt their own identifying flag or banner to represent their part of the Republic. I am pleased to formally announce and declare the Provincial Flag for Provincia Australia. It shall be adopted as the brand and logo for Nova Roma in Oceaniae.

III. It shall use the same colours as the Nova Roma flag; featuring Australia and New Zealand on a red background, with a golden S.P.Q.R. centered within a simple wreath. Above the central images shall read the words 'Nova Roma', with 'Australia' written underneath. It shall adopt the same aspect ratios as the Nova Roma flag when flown or used together. The design is intended to look similar to the Nova Roma flag and that of similar existing provincial designs including Italia, Gallia and Brasilia.

IV. The Provincial flag will always remain subordinate to the Nova Roma flag. When both are flown together, the Nova Roma flag takes precedence and shall be flown first from the left, with the provincial flag to the right. If in a moving parade or event, the Nova Roma flag should always lead. Where possible, the Nova Roma flag or vexillum must also be paraded if the Provincial flag is to be present for an event.

I.

Aurelius Ingeniarius.

II. D. Aurelius Ingeniarius started to develop an active local community of Nova Roma within Australia with promising success, entering contact with various Roman cultural organizations with the potential of alliance. As proconsul with supervising authority, I applaud and recognize the efforts of D. Aurelius. The governor of Australia, M. Claudius Nero legatus pro praetore is unfortunately incapacitated to conduct the necessary guiding and directing work and oversight, as he is located in a different geographical area, and as he is busy with other obligations and is currently unable to conduct fast and effective leadership, therefore I intervene with my imperium maius possessed over Australia and give the necessary authorizations to D. Aurelius Ingeniarius in order to build an active province of Nova Roma.

III. I hereby appoint citizen D. Aurelius Ingeniarius as my legatus in Australia, with the full title legatus proconsulis Cn.

He has the special mandate to recruit citizens, recruit cooperating reenactment groups, and to establish a living and working community of Nova Romans in Australia.

IV. In addition to the previous office, I hereby appoint D. Aurelius Ingeniarius as the vice-governor of Provincia Australia, with the title praefectus provinciae Australiae administrandae. In this capacity, he reports to governor M. Nero legatus pro praetore Australiae, and secondarily, to me as his shared supervisor. His task is to govern Australia in lieu of the incapacitated governor, unless and until the governor becomes actively governing or instructs him otherwise. In case of need, I reserve the right to intervene, but intend not to, unless absolutely needed.

V. Oath of office is required, this edict takes effect immediately.

__TOC__

==Introduction==

I. Under the authority of section V.F. of the Constitution of Nova Roma, the senate hereby consolidates and enacts the following decree to define its own internal procedures.

II. The enactment of this decree provides revised senate rules which are necessitated to consolidate a series of past decrees. With the growth and modification of senate rules overtime, there is now conflicting legislation and even previously rescinded decrees being inadvertently reenacted. The following senatus consulta, are now considered lapsed and superseded, as are all others preceding them:

:A. Senatus consultum de ratione senatus MMDCCLIX, 6 August 2006

:B. Senatus consultum de ratione senatus MMDCCLXV, 31 January 2012

:C. Senatus consultum de senatu habendo, 29 May 2019

:D. Senatus consultum de sententia in propria persona dicenda, 30 Dec 2023

:E. Senatus consultum de senatu habendo M. Cotta C. Petronio coss, 30 Dec 2024

* Presiding magistrate: The consul, praetor, tribune or the princeps senatus who intends to issue, or issues, or issued the “call to convene”. This term is only ever used in connection with a “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. The presiding magistrate that issued the call to convene must also issue the “call to order”, the “call to vote”, the “call to close” and any “call to recess”. The duties, honors, powers, limits and obligations of any member of the Senate who is a “presiding magistrate” shall be limited to only those as specified in this Senatus consultum.

==III. PRESIDING MAGISTRATE==

:1. The Tribune must clearly state in the call to convene the subject that he/she seeks advice on together with any relevant sections of the legal code that is the subject of advice sought, or which the Tribune will reference in any way during the formal meeting of the Senate in session. Any failure to comply with III.C.1 above shall be deemed to be an automatic termination of the call to convene and deemed contempt of the Senate.

:3. The Tribune must not deviate from, alter, or add to, the content of the call to convene at any time and any deviation, alteration or addition shall be deemed to be illegal and an automatic termination of the formal meeting of the Senate in session and deemed contempt of the Senate. The only item(s) that the Tribune shall present to the Senate during the voting period is/are that one/those contained within the call to convene.

:4. In any formal meeting of the Senate in session where a Tribune is the presiding magistrate, no Senatus Consultum Ultimum can be enacted and any such attempt to do so shall be deemed to be contempt of the Senate. The only lawfully permitted content of any draft Senatus Consultum put to the vote during such a session is in the form of advice and the content must state: “The advice of the Senate of Nova Roma is as follows”. Such a Senatus Consultum must also state at the end of the advice “This advice is non-binding and is not, and shall not be interpreted as, a direction, order or command of the Senate of Nova Roma.”

:5. A Tribune who is the presiding magistrate must not recess a formal meeting of the Senate in session, except for the reasons specified at XIII.A.<ref>Article III.C.5, disregard “except for the reasons specified at XIII.A.”.</ref>
:6. A Tribune who is the presiding magistrate must not put to the vote a draft Senatus consultum as at III.C.4 the content of which seeks to interpret, define or offer advice on this Senatus consultum or any part of it thereof. Any such act shall be deemed to be contempt of the Senate.

E. The presiding magistrate may require, by means of a call for order, a member of the Senate, or other magistrate, to cease his/her posting, but that requirement must only be when such posting:

:1. Violates XII.E.

:2. Is not concerned with any item on the agenda currently under debate.

:3. Causes a disruption in the proceedings of the formal meeting of the Senate in session and/or the business of the Senate, and/or the period of the session.

:If the member of the Senate, or other magistrate, fails and/or refuses to comply with the direction of the presiding magistrate to cease posting in the call for order, and where such posts continue to violate any or all of the sections III.E.1 to III.E.3 inclusive, then that member of the Senate, or other magistrate, may have his/her posting rights set to a moderated status requiring approval of posts, but only where such continued posting if unchecked, in the opinion of the presiding magistrate and the princeps senatus, would result in extreme disruption to and/or abandonment of, the session. Where a member of the Senate is placed on moderation that shall also be deemed contempt of the Senate. Ratification of such moderated status is required by the means specified at IX.A.2 during the next formal meeting of the Senate in session. Should such ratification not occur within 60 days from the date of suspension, then that moderated status is deemed cancelled and the princeps senatus or in his/her absence the Censors, shall ensure that the member of the Senate subject to such moderated status has his/her membership of the Senate list reinstated. Additionally if any other magistrate fails and/or refuses to comply with the direction of the presiding magistrate in the call for order to cease posting, then that other magistrate may be removed from the Senate list by the princeps senatus.

:4. Only the presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus may approve a post from a member of the Senate on moderated status.

:5. Such a post at III.E.4 must not be rejected in lieu of approval, except in cases of a clear and obvious breach of XII.E or such a post deleted after approval. Such a post must be left pending approval.

:6. Such a post pending approval must be approved and released for publication to the Senate list as soon as is reasonably practicable after the call to close has been posted. The definition of “reasonably practicable” is as defined by the princeps senatus.

:7. Such an approval at III.E.6 does not imply approval of the contents and does not indemnify the member of the Senate from any consequences arising from the content. The presiding magistrate or princeps senatus approving such a post are indemnified from any sanction that may be applied under the provisions of this Senatus Consultum if such a post is found to constitute contempt of the Senate, or any other provision that results in a sanction being applied.

:8. The exception to the approval of such a post at III.E.7 shall be in circumstances where there is a clear and obvious breach of XII.E, in which case the post must be rejected and a post made to the Senate list stating the name of the poster and the fact that the post had been rejected for a breach of XII.E. In justifying such rejection no part of the rejected post shall be quoted verbatim, but may be summarized in a manner that does not breach XII.E. Verbatim reposting shall be a breach of XII.E.

:9. No indemnification at III.E.8 exists if quoted verbatim or the summary at breaches XII.E, but the member of the Senate on moderated status who originally authored the post shall not himself/herself be subject to a sanction based on either the verbatim quote or the summary. The responsibility in such a case for a breach of XII.E rests solely with the approver of the post.

==Convening the senate==

III. A lawful formal meeting of the Senate requires a single presiding magistrate. As per the constitution, the following magistrates may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate:

:A. A consul may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate for any purpose.

:B. A praetor may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate for any purpose.

:C. A tribune may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate only to ask the Senate's advice on matters within their scope as defined under law.

:D. The princeps senatus may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate if the consuls and praetors are unavailable to conduct business and an urgent matter requires a session of the Senate.

IV. Among the magistrates, the right to convene a formal meeting of the Senate is determined by who "holds the rods", a state of affairs deriving from the right to the fasces. Traditionally, the senior consul, or the consul elected with most centuries, or in the case of a tie, the older of the two, shall “hold the rods” first in the January of the next year following his/her election. Conventionally, the period of time in which one possess the rods is monthly or otherwise by mutual agreement between the consuls (or praetors). A suffect consul shall “hold the rods” as and when his/her predecessor would have held them had he/she remained in office. A colleague who does not hold the rods may commence a formal meeting of the Senate when a magistrate is unavailable. In accordance with the lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda IV.G.1, any magistrate or any officer can be declared unavailable if they were demonstrably informed that they were invited to make a decision or action, but they are still unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted and fully informed:

:A. Should both consuls be unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted a praetor, or if otherwise collegially granted by both consuls, a praetor has the right to convene a formal meeting of the Senate. A praetor may also convene a formal meeting of the Senate if granted by just one consul if the other consul remains unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted by either his or her consular colleague or by the requesting praetor. Should there be disagreement between the praetors as to who may convene the Senate in this instant, the senior praetor, or the praetor elected with most centuries, or in the case of a tie, the older of the two, shall convene the Senate.

:B. Should there be an urgent issue requiring the attention of the Senate, the princeps senatus may issue a call to convene a formal meeting should both consuls and praetors be unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted and fully informed.

:C. A tribune may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate only after having notified the consuls and confirming that the consuls themselves do not intend to call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate within 72-hours. Should both consuls be unresponsive for 72-hours after having been notified by a tribune, or if otherwise collegially acknowldged by both consuls, a tribune may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate. A tribune may also convene a formal meeting of the Senate if acknowledged by just one consul if the other consul remains unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted by either his or her consular colleague or by the notifying tribune.

V. In order to commence a lawful formal meeting of the Senate, the presiding magistrate must issue a "Call to Convene". A Call to Convene must adhere to the following:

:A. A Call to Convene must be a post by the presiding magistrate sent to the "Senate list" stating his/her intent to "call the Senate to order". This post commences the process to initiate a formal meeting of the Senate in session. The presiding magistrate may also send the call to convene post to any other list at his/her discretion. In cases of discrepancy of content between the call to convene post made to the Senate list and one or more call to convene post(s) made to any other list, the call to convene post to the Senate list shall be considered the definitive and only legal call to convene.

:B. An initial agenda must be included in the call to convene detailing the items to be discussed. Substantive details are not required, but may be included by the presiding magistrate. Sufficient detail must be included such that members of the Senate can reasonably be expected to understand the general nature of the topic of each agenda item. The definition of "reasonably expected" is as defined by the princeps senatus.

:C. The call to convene post must specify the time and date when the Senate will be called to order, the times and dates of the commencement and end of the debate period, and times and dates of the of the commencement and end of the voting period. The presiding magistrate of the session may leave the end dates of the debate period, voting period and the end of the session unspecified if he or she cannot clearly predict the length of time necessary for those procedures. If there is more than one item on the agenda, none of these items can have an individual times/dates of commencement/end of debate applied to them. Debate on all items on the agenda is to be simultaneous during the debate period. Therefore, the presiding magistrate must observe the following consecutive sequence of events, as declared in the call to convene, in the below order during a formal meeting of the Senate:

::i. Call to convene

::ii. Call to order

:iii.. Call to vote

:iv. Call to close

VI. If after the call to convene is posted, but before the call to order is issued, the presiding magistrate wishes to cancel that formal meeting of the Senate, then he/she must do so by way of a post to the Senate list, with a subject heading "Formal meeting of the Senate in session cancelled", stating in the body of the post the reason(s) for such cancellation.

VII. A presiding magistrate must ensure that a formal meeting of the Senate, established by the call to convene, does not extend into a period when his or her colleague is considered to hold the rods. A presiding magistrate may first obtaining permission from his or her colleague prior to issuing the call to convene, or if the overlap occurs as a result of changes in the session, then the presiding magistrate must obtain the permission from his or her colleague fast as is reasonably practicable. If his/her colleague refuses permission, then the presiding magistrate shall either:

:A. Shorten any period of the session, but not below that permitted as a minimum by this decree. The exception is if the vote period is already underway when the overlap is identified, then the vote period shall continue regardless of the fact that it extends into the period the colleague of the presiding magistrate who holds the rods.

:B. Issue the call to close on no later than the last day he or she holds the rods.

==Calling the Senate to order==

A. The presiding magistrate must post the call to order to commence the formal meeting of the Senate in session and must present to the Senate one or more matters on the agenda for debate.

B. The presiding magistrate may introduce items to the agenda other than those listed in the call to convene. These maybe his/her items or he/she may accept items from a member of the Senate or another magistrate.

C. Any new item(s) to the agenda may be included at any time between when the call to convene is issued and the commencement of the voting period. If its inclusion on the agenda occurs after the call to order, then 96 hours must be allowed for debate on that new item, with that 96 hours commencing from the time and date of its inclusion on the agenda. The debate period will need to be increased after such an inclusion after the call to order, but such increase is subject to the permitted maximum number of hours for debate at VI.A.4.a and if the inclusion of the item would exceed that permitted maximum, then the item shall not be included.

==VI. DEBATE, REPORTING, PROXY AND CLOSE==

A. After the call to order, members of the Senate may offer their opinions on any item on the agenda presented by the presiding magistrate in the call to order by means of a post to the Senate list.

:1. The debate shall include members of the Senate and any other magistrate.

:2. There shall be no limit on the text length of such opinions.

:3. The presiding magistrate may at his/her discretion extend the period of debate, and may shorten it, but a reduction in the debate period must never reduce the number of hours allotted for debate from the number specified in the call to convene.

:4. The number of hours allocated by the presiding magistrate to the debate period must always be between a minimum of 96 hours, or the number of hours set in the call to convene whichever is greater, and a maximum of 288 hours.

::a. Amendments to the debate period at the time of, or after the call to order, shall never result in the debate period exceeding 288 hours.

::b. The addition of the number of hours of debate at IV.G.3 and the number of hours of debate at IV.G.4 must never exceed the maximum of 288 hours.

B. In addition to the provisions of the [[Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum (Nova Roma)|Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum]], the Tribunes may, at their discretion collectively or individually, keep the citizens informed as to the progress and content of the debate period. The format for informing the citizens between these periods must be as follows:

:1. Full verbatim transcripts of any/all post(s) of any member of the Senate or other magistrate made to the Senate list during the formal meeting of the Senate that the Tribune is reporting on.

:2. Partial transcripts of any/all post(s) of any member of the Senate or other magistrate made to the Senate list during the formal meeting of the Senate that the Tribune is reporting on, with a summation of the parts of that post not recorded as verbatim transcript.

:3. A summation of any/all post(s) of any member of the Senate or other magistrate made to the Senate list during the formal meeting of the Senate that the Tribune is reporting on.

:4. Any mix of VI.B.1, VI.B.2) or VI.B.3 above during the formal meeting of the Senate in session that the Tribune is reporting on. Such a mix is at the discretion of the Tribune reporting.

C. The right of reporting at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4 inclusive is a privilege the Senate grants to the Tribunes in addition to those rights under the Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum.<ref>“Senate sessions shall be reported to the Nova Roman people in the forum by the president of the session. This reporting shall be made no later than within 24 hours after the closing of the session. The tribunes of the plebs may also publish, but are not obliged to publish, their own report of the session to the people, including as many details as they think necessary, as long as they observe the laws that define the tribunes' reporting activity.”</ref>
:1. Any departure from, or abuse of, the process at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4 inclusive, including but not limited to, inaccurate or false reporting of verbatim transcripts and/or grossly inaccurate summations may, at the discretion of the Consuls, lead to a revocation of the privileges granted, at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4 inclusive, to the Tribune responsible, for a period of time at the discretion of the princeps senatus.

:2. The presiding officer may not alter, suspend or cancel the right of reporting at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4 inclusive, except under the conditions and terms of this Senatus Consultum.

D. If an agenda item concerns an item which is the presiding magistrate determines is of a confidential nature, he/she may:

:1. Declare the Senate in closed session for that item.

:2. Declare that the Senate seal is active and in effect for that item.
:Declaration that the Senate seal is active automatically invokes closed session for that item. Such a determination by the presiding officer to invoke closed session and/or Senate seal requires the consent of the princeps senatus. Only if the princeps senatus does not inform the presiding magistrate about his or her disagreement, the senate is deemed not to be in closed session and/or Senate seal is not invoked. Otherwise, the consent of the princeps senatus is always deemed granted.

:In respect of reporting the business of the Senate under the Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum, or under the right of reporting at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4, where the Senate seal is active in respect of an agenda item, the Tribunes shall report only “A confidential item was discussed”. Reporting such an agenda item using any other text, by way of description, explanation or other purpose, will constitute contempt of the Senate.

E. Debate is only to be conducted by posts to the Senate list. The requirements of IV.G.1 apply throughout the debate period. Each member of the Senate:

:1. Shall be able to post an opinion on any active agenda item that the presiding magistrate has put to the Senate to debate. Such a right to post shall be for a minimum of 96 hours and a maximum number of hours as defined in the agenda as presented to the Senate during the call to order, or as defined by the most recent amendment by the presiding magistrate to that maximum number of hours for debate.

:2. Shall not commence, or continue, debate on an item that has been withdrawn by the presiding magistrate.

:3. Shall be assumed to have abrogated his/her right to post an opinion as at VI.E.1 if he/she has failed to post at the expiry of the maximum number of hours for debate. Such a failure shall not be considered a waiver of the right to vote.

3. The definition of “reasonably practicable” is as defined by the princeps senatus.

F. The presiding magistrate may not delegate or share his role or functions, or part thereof, at any time, but may permit another member of the Senate to introduce an item on the agenda and post his/her opinion on it.

* Formal meeting of the Senate in session / session: The period of time between the time and date of the “call to convene” and the time and date of the “call to close” of a session of the Senate. This period of time is the only time that the “business of the Senate” can be addressed by way of Senatus consultum or Senatus consultum ultimum.

T he presiding magistrate may also depart from the time schedule given in the call to convene or call to order as long as there no senator raises an objection against the changed timing.

B. A call to order cannot be made until 24 hours have elapsed after the call to convene was issued.

G. The length of the debate period specified for all the items on the agenda, within the call to convene, must be a minimum of 96 hours.

:1.

:2. The exception to IV.G.1 is a cultus or religio item(s) described at XIII.B, which must be placed first on the agenda. Where there is more than one such items then debate on them must comply with the conditions at IV.G.1.<ref>Article IV.G.2, disregard “described at XIII.B”.</ref>
:3. Where there are more than one such cultus or religio XIII.B items at IV.G.2, they must be allocated, as a block of items, a minimum of 96 hours of debate, and the end time and date of the debate period on such block of cultus or religio XIII.B items must be specified in the agenda.<ref>Article IV.G.3, disregard “XIII.B” in both instances it appears.</ref>
:4. All other civil agenda items must then be allocated, as a block of items, a separate minimum of 96 hours that must follow the items specified at IV.G.2 and debate on such civil items must comply with the conditions at IV.G.1. The end time and date of the debate period on such block of XIII.B civil items must be specified.<ref>Article IV.G.4, disregard “XIII.B civil”.</ref>
H. A call to convene must be made by only one presiding magistrate, who must not act jointly with any other member(s) of the Senate, whether any such other(s) are defined as a presiding magistrate or not.

==I. DEFINITIONS==

The definitions below shall be the only meaning applicable to their usage in this Senatus consultum. Any requirement(s), limit(s) or other condition(s) specified within a definition shall have the full legal force of this Senatus Consultum attached to it and therefore compliance with such a requirement(s), limit(s) or other condition(s) shall be mandatory. The absence of a definition in this section shall not be construed as any lack of full legal force of the word or phrase in question. Other sections of this Senatus consultum may also provide definitions for words or phrases not included in this section. Inclusion of quotation marks around a word or phrase and its highlighting in bold type in section I of this Senatus consultum is only for ease of reference to indicate that such a word or phrase is included in section I of this Senatus consultum and no additional or lesser legal force shall be construed from that. Exclusion of quotation marks around a word or phrase and any highlighting in bold type in any section of this Senatus consultum shall not construe any additional or lesser legal force arising from that exclusion, nor shall it be construed that such a word or phrase has a different meaning or definition from an identical occurrence of it in section I of this Senatus consultum.

* Active agenda item: An item on the agenda that has not been withdrawn.

* Agenda: The list of items that are initially proposed for debate during a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” contained within the “call to convene”, and which may subsequently amended according to the terms of this Senatus consultum.

* Arbitrate: With or without invitation by all, or by any, of the parties to a dispute or disagreement, make an authoritative decision to resolve such a dispute or disagreement, and to have the authority to compel all the parties to accept and/or comply with that result. Such a resolve shall be a final and absolute result not subject to any appeal.

* Another magistrate / other magistrate: A magistrate, not being a “member of the senate”, who has been specifically permitted by the “presiding magistrate” to address the Senate during a “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. This definition includes a curule aedile, a plebeian aedile, a quaestor, any other person elected by one of the comitia, a governor of a Nova Roman province, a provincial magistrate of first to fourth rank, a magistrate of an oppidum or municipium and any person appointed by the Senate to their position. This definition does not include a scribe and accensus, who shall not be permitted to join the “Senate list” unless he/she is also, in addition to that position of scribe or accensus already a “member of the Senate”. The invitation to such “another magistrate” is for one “formal meeting of the Senate in session” only. Such a magistrate is bound by all the restrictions in relation to posting, conduct, and confidentiality within this Senatus Consultum. There must be a clearly established and pressing need for such “other magistrate” to have access to the “Senate list” during the session and the “presiding magistrate” shall explain that need in his/her “call to order”. If in the opinion of the princeps senatus there has been a flagrant abuse of this right of invitation with no such need established, or there was no reason for the need stated in the “call to order”, then such behaviour on the part of the “presiding magistrate” shall be deemed to be “contempt of the Senate”. For the purposes of posting to the “Senate list” during the “debate period”, this “other magistrate” must first obtain either specific permission for each such post, or a standing right of posting for any time during the “debate period”. The standing right applies only to that one “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. The choice between specific permission and standing right is at the discretion of the “presiding magistrate”.

* Business of the Senate: The functions, fulfilment of the purposes of and compliance with the lawful duties of the Senate, such functions, purposes and duties being as defined within the “legal code”. Also this includes the management and operation of the “Senate list”.

He/she may attach such directions in the body of the post as are necessary in his/her opinion to prevent such a violation. Such directions shall not include a stated or implied sanction. The presiding magistrate may issue as many calls for order as he/she deems necessary in relation to any occurrence of such a type of posting, until it is clear that the risk of a violation of III.E has, in his/her opinion, ceased. Should such a call for order not be complied with then it may be deemed to be contempt of the Senate at the discretion of the presiding magistrate.

* Call to close: A post by the presiding magistrate sent to the “Senate list” stating that the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” has concluded. The presiding magistrate may include comments in the “call to close”. The “call to close” must have no other function than notifying the Senate of the close of session.

* Call to order / called to order / call the Senate to order: A post of the presiding magistrate during the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” indicating that Senate is in session. This shall be issued either at or after the time and date when the session first commences as defined in the “call to convene”, or following the expiration of a recess of the “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. No “business of the Senate” shall be conducted until the “call to order” has been posted. The most recent periods of time allocated to debate and/or voting shall continue to decrease after the time and date of the “call to order”, as specified in the “call to convene”, or after the expiration of a period of recess in the “call to recess”, whether the “call to order” is posted or not. The “call to order” shall also include the most recent “agenda”.

* Call to recess: A post by the “presiding magistrate” sent to the “Senate list” stating his/her intent to recess the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” until a time and date as specified in that post. The most recent periods of time allocated to debate and/or voting shall cease to decrease after the “call to recess” is posted and no “business of the Senate” that requires a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” shall be conducted until the expiration of the period of recess and the “call to order” is posted.

* Call to vote: A post by the presiding magistrate on the “Senate list” that initiates the “voting period”. No “voting posts” shall be posted until the “call to vote” is posted.

* Closed session: A discussion on an “active agenda” item of a confidential nature that automatically invokes the requirement of the tribunes to confer with the Senate as under the requirements of I.B.4 and II.B.6.e of the [[Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum (Nova Roma)|Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum]]. This requirement shall exist and survive regardless of any superseding, alteration or repeal of, the above sections of/the entire Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum.

* Management of Senate business: The administration of the functions, fulfilment of the purposes of and compliance with the lawful duties of the Senate, such functions, purposes and duties being as defined within the “legal code”. The princeps senatus may avail himself/herself of this definition for the purpose of, and reason for, issuing a “call to convene”, when those other magistrates defined as a “presiding magistrate”, excluding those that are Tribunes due to their having only limited legal scope of purpose in respect of a “call to convene”, are unavailable due to any occurrence of a singular, or multiple combination, of loss of senatorial status, death, resignation from the Senate, renunciation of citizenship, or a “disappearance of more than 30 days”,

* Member(s) of the Senate: Any person appointed to the Senate under III. [[Lex Popillia senatoria (Nova Roma)|Lex Popillia senatoria]] and any person having the right of ius sententiae dicendae under IV. Lex Popillia senatoria, and any person holding the office of a Nova Roman Tribune. All such persons must also be both a current citizen of Nova Roma and be recorded by the Censors as holding assidui status, by virtue of having paid the annual Nova Roman tax. For the purposes of posting to the “Senate list” during the debate period, a Tribune, who is not also a voting member of the Senate, must first obtain either specific permission for each such post, or a standing right of posting for any time during the debate period. The standing right applies only to that one “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. The choice between specific permission and standing right is at the discretion of the “presiding magistrate”. A Tribune who is also a “voting member of the Senate” may post without specific permission or standing right.

* Period of the session: The “debate period” or “voting period”

* Prohibited day: Any day that the [[Decretum Pontificum de Calendario Perpetuo (Nova Roma)|Decretum Pontificum de Calendario Perpetuo]] decrees as dies nefastus publicus or dies fasti publici or ater dies. It is prohibited and illegal for a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” to take place on any such day.

* Restricted day: Any day that the Decretum pontificum de calendario perpetuo decrees as: dies nefasti, annotated as (N), or dies endotercisi, annotated as (EN), quando rex comitiavit fas annotated as (QRCF), or quando stercus delatum fas, (QSTDF or QSDF), or is indicated as religiosus is deemed to be dies nefasti for the purpose of a determining if a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” can be conducted on a particular day.

* Rule of session: A temporary rule that shall have accorded to it the full force and legal authority of this Senatus consultum, as though it was specifically enshrined within this Senatus consultum, which is enacted solely for the purpose of resolving an issue that is not specifically covered by this Senatus consultum and where such a rule does not conflict or alter or constrain the application of any part of this Senatus consultum. Such a rule shall only be enacted, and only have force and legal authority, for the duration of the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” in which it was created and issued. The consuls and praetors or any presiding officer of a session of the Senate, except the tribuni plebis, can issue the "rule of session," but the princeps senatus shall have the right to overrule those and have the final decision on the matter." A “rule of session” shall not, where a similar issue arises again, be binding by way of precedent upon the presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus, his/her successor, or a person delegated under the terms of this Senatus consultum to act as presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus, but instead shall be considered advice only. A record must be kept in the file section of the Senate list of all such rules issued, indicating the post number, time and date of enactment, content and the name of the presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus enacting such a rule. Such rules may form the basis of subsequent amendments to this Senatus consultum. The expiration of the full force and legal authority of a “rule of session” due to the close of the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” in which it was enacted shall not remove the full force and legal authority that “rule of session” had during that “formal meeting of the Senate in session”.

* Sanction: A lawful penalty and/or consequence of an act that is unlawful, illegal.

* Senate list: The electronic meeting place where a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” is held. Currently this is: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SenatusRomanus/
:No other electronic meeting place shall be used for “formal meetings of the Senate in session”, though informal Senate discussion shall be held in such a place. Membership and/or participation in any other place or list, or using any other medium, that is used for informal Senate discussion is discretionary and must not be mandatory for a “member of the Senate”. Informal Senate discussion shall only take place on the Senate list when a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” is not in progress.

* Senate seal: A condition where all “members of the Senate” and any “other magistrate” are bound by confidentially and shall not report, or discuss, in any way with any other person(s) other than those who are “members of the Senate”, or any “other magistrate” who was present during such discussion, by any medium or means including but not limited to, regular mail, email, posting to lists or message boards, texting, telephone conversations, or in person conversations, the existence, nature and details of the “closed session” agenda item. The “presiding magistrate” invoking the “Senate seal” may specify a time period for which the “Senate seal “is in effect, but in the absence of such the time period is deemed to be in perpetuity or until released from the “Senate seal” conditions by that, or any subsequent, “presiding magistrate”. Such a release must be by means of the “presiding magistrate” releasing the “Senate seal” posting that decision to the “Senate list”. All “members of the Senate” are bound by the invocation of the “Senate seal”, whether they were present for the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” or not when the “Senate seal” was invoked.

* Senator: Person currently included in the Album senatorum

* Simple Majority: A “simple majority” is defined as the number of affirmative votes plus the number of negative votes, divided by two, with one added to that result. Abstentions are not counted when determining this number. An equivalent result may be obtained by directly comparing the numbers of affirmative and negative votes, again ignoring abstentions; if the number of affirmative votes exceeds (not merely equals) the number of negative votes, the item has succeeded, and the Senate has voted in favour of the item.

* Terms of Service / ToS: The contents of the general Terms of Service (ToS) of Groups.io is located here: https://groups.io/static/tos.

* Unfavourable: In the context of the auspices, a result that indicates a reason to delay a proposed “formal meeting of the Senate in session”, based on observations made by the person taking the auspices and where such observations are subject to rules of interpretation enacted by the Collegium augurum.

* Unlawful / illegal: A state of affairs or act in not in accordance with the requirements of the “legal code” and/or contradicting a requirement of the “legal code”, and thus a state of affairs or act not permitted under the “legal code”. A person is not required to comply or obey with the intent or consequences of such a state of affairs or act

* Voting member(s) of the Senate: Any person appointed to the Senate under III. Lex Popillia senatoria and any person having the right of ius sententiae dicendae under IV.A or IV.C Lex Popillia senatoria, excluding at IV.C Lex Popillia senatoria a Tribune, and any person holding the office of Tribune who is also a person appointed to the Senate under III. Lex Popillia senatoria, or any person holding the office of Tribune who also holds a right to vote in the Senate granted by the Lex Popillia. A Tribune not being a Senator or who does not also hold a right to vote in the Senate granted by the Lex Popillia senatoria cannot vote in the Senate, and shall not be defined as a “voting member of the Senate”, as prohibited from doing so by IV.A Lex Popillia senatoria and/or by this definition of “voting member of the Senate, by right granted to the Senate under V.F of the Constitution of Nova Roma. A “voting member of the Senate” shall have the right to post to the “Senate list” without asking prior permission to do so, unless he/she is subject to a lawful sanction, lawfully imposed under any section of this Senatus consultum concerning such sanction(s).

* Voting period / period of voting: The period of time in a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” during which the “voting members of the Senate” cast their votes. That period must be no less than 48 hours in length and no greater than 96 hours in length. No debate shall take place during this period, except as permitted under VII.G.7.

* Voting posts: The posts made by “voting members of the Senate” by which mechanism those members register a vote according to the requirements of VII.G on items presented to the vote.

* Withdrawal / withdrawn: Removing an item from the agenda of a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” and thus removing the right of a “member of the Senate” or “other magistrate” to post further on that item after the time and date of removal, and removing the right of a “voting member of the Senate” to vote on that item.

==II. INFORMAL SENATE DISCUSSION==<ref>"When there are no censors in office, all procedural decisions assigned to the censors shall be made by the consuls."</ref>
A. Any member of the Senate may, at his/her discretion, when a formal meeting of the Senate in session is not being held, introduce any topic for discussion by sharing it with the rest of the Senate by means of posting to the Senate list.

B. No call to convene, call to order, or call to close is required to start or end an informal Senate discussion. A vote may not take place nor any Senatus Consultum or Senatus Consultum Ultimum be enacted during informal Senate discussion.

C. Members of the Senate remain bound by the requirements of XII.E. Moderation of posting rights shall not occur during informal Senate discussion, unless in the opinion of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors, that such discussion has resulted in a violation of XII.E, in which case the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors, must:<ref>Article II.C, disregard the sentence parts “Members of the Senate remain bound by the requirements of XII.E.” and “of XII.E” in the next sentence.</ref>
:1. Post a requirement to the Senate list for the member of the Senate who, in his/her or their opinion, violated XII.E to cease posting. A period of time maybe requested, but not imposed, during which the member of the Senate should desist from posting. At the expiration of such time, which must be no greater than 4 hours, the member of the Senate can post freely without further sanction, provided he/she does not further violate XII.E.<ref>Article II.C.1, change the section “violated XII.E” to “posted a violation,”. In the next sentence, change “does not further violate XII.E.” to “does not post further violations”.</ref>
:2. Should that member of the Senate fail and/or refuse to comply with the direction to cease posting and continue posting in a manner that in the opinion of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors has, or is likely to, lead to a breach of XII.E, then that member of the Senate may have his/her posting rights set to a moderated status requiring approval of posts.<ref>In article II.C.2, replace the sentence part “or is likely to, lead to a breach of XII.E” with “leads to further breaches”.</ref>
:3. Such moderated status at II.C.2 must last no longer than 24 hours and at the expiration of that period the moderated status must be removed.

:4. Should the period of moderated status at II.C.2 still be in force after a call to order is posted, then that moderated status must be immediately removed to allow the member of the Senate to participate in the session.

:5. Moderated status removed as at II.C.4 prior to its expiration will not be re-imposed for the remaining balance of the 24 hours after the call to close is posted, unless the member of the Senate continued, in the opinion of the princeps senatus, to violate XII.E during the formal meeting of the Senate in session.<ref>Article II.C.5, change the section “to violate XII.E” to “to continue violations”.</ref>
:6. The re-imposition of the remaining balance at II.C.5 is not affected by the removal of any moderated status imposed during the formal meeting of the Senate in session.

:7. If a member of the Senate commits numerous violations in separate posts before moderation of posting rights is imposed, the period of moderation shall still be no longer than 24 hours.

:8. Repeated violations of XII.E resulting in a combined total of 72 hours of moderated status in any five day consecutive period may result, notwithstanding II.C.3 and II.C.7, in moderated status being continuously imposed until the next call to order of the next formal meeting of the Senate in session. An imposition of this continuous moderation is at the discretion of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors. At such a call to order the moderated status must be removed. After the call to close, the decision whether to re-impose moderated status is at the discretion of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors and may be based on the behaviour / posts of that moderated member of the Senate during the formal meeting of the Senate in session. Removal of continuous moderated status before any set maximum number of hours is at the discretion of the princeps senatus.<ref>Article II.C.8, disregard “of XII.E”.</ref>
:9. Moderated status imposed at II.C.8 for the first time in any 365 day period must in no cases last longer than a maximum of 720 hours, excluding the total periods of time between the call to order and the call to close of any formal meetings of the Senate in session during that first occurrence of continuous moderation.

:10. Moderated status imposed at II.C.8 for the second time in any 365 day period must in no cases last longer than a maximum of 2160 hours, excluding the total periods of time between the call to order and the call to close of any formal meetings of the Senate in session during that first occurrence of continuous moderation.

:11. Moderated status imposed at II.C.8 for the third time in any 365 day period shall result in continuous moderation with no limit, the removal of which is at the discretion of the princeps senatus.

:12. If after release from such a third time of moderation at II.C.8, the member of the Senate is subject to a further period of moderation of any length, whether imposed during an informal Senate discussion period or during session, within 6 months since the date of release from the third time of moderation at II.C.8, the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors, may impose continuous moderation with no limit during informal Senate discussion periods. Removal of such continuous moderation is at the discretion of the princeps senatus.

:13. Regardless of the length of moderated status, either set or until removal, this moderated status only applies to informal Senate discussion periods. Any member of the Senate so moderated must be released temporarily from that moderated status for the time between the call to order and the call to close of any formal meetings of the Senate in session.

:14. A member of the Senate subject to moderation imposed during informal Senate discussion periods is still bound by the requirements on members of the Senate during formal meetings of the Senate in session, and no such moderation can exonerate or indemnify him/her from further sanctions that may be imposed on him/her as a result of any violations of behaviour during formal meetings of the Senate in session.

:15. Hours of moderation imposed during session do not subtract from, or add to, any total of moderated hours a member of the Senate is subject to during informal Senate discussion periods.

:16. Release from a period of moderation imposed during informal Senate discussion periods, either by the expiration of the period of moderation or by decision of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors, does not imply or result in the alteration, suspension or termination of any sanctions imposed as a result of behavioural infractions during formal meetings of the Senate in session.

D. No person other than a member of the Senate shall participate in informal Senate discussion, nor shall be added to the Senate list during such a period.

E. During informal Senate discussion a Tribune(s) must not be subject to any requirement to obtain permission from any member of the Senate prior to posting to the Senate list, nor must any other conditions, other than those applicable to all members of the Senate as specified within this Senatus Consultum, be imposed or applied to a Tribune(s).

F. The rights of reporting at VI.B.1 to VI.B.4 inclusive do not apply to informal Senate discussion periods and such reporting during these periods is forbidden.

==VII. VOTING PERIOD==

A. After the minimum of 96 hours of debate on an agenda has elapsed, that item is eligible to be put to the vote. The call to vote must specify all those items that, having first been subject to the minimum of 96 hours, are to be put to the vote in one vote period during that formal meeting of the Senate in session. Multiple vote periods, whether overlapping or consecutive, are illegal except as allowed for at XVI.P and XVI.Q.<ref>Article VII.A, disregard the part “except as allowed for at XVI.P and XVI.Q.”</ref>
B. The presiding magistrate may present none, any or all of the items on the initial agenda, or which were added to the agenda subsequently, to a vote. The agenda presented to the Senate cannot be altered once the voting period has commenced. If the vote required for an agenda item to be passed is not calculated on a simple majority, then the presiding magistrate shall indicate the majority required against that specific item contained in the agenda items submitted to the vote.

C. The presiding magistrate may at his/her discretion extend the period of voting, but may not shorten it, from the period specified in the call to convene. The period of voting may only be extended to a maximum of 96 hours. If the presiding officer issues no post to the Senate list indicating that he/she is extending the voting period, then the length of time of that period shall be the period specified in the call to convene the Senate. Once the voting period has commenced no alteration to its length, either shorter or greater, shall be considered legal and the period shall remain unchanged from that length of the voting period last posted to the Senate prior to the voting period commencing.

D. Voting shall only be conducted on the Senate list by means of voting members of the Senate posting to the Senate list. The subject line of that post must identify that it is a vote and may include which votingmember of the Senate it is from.

E. Matters being voted on shall be decided by majority vote unless mandated otherwise.

F. Should the voting period elapse, any voting member of the Senate that has yet to vote shall be assumed to have abrogated his/her right to vote.

G. On items that are presented for to the senate during the voting period for approval, a voting member of the Senate may either vote or abstain from voting as follows:

:1. An AFFIRMATIVE vote is registered by a voting member of the Senate stating in his/her post "YES", "ITA CENSEO", or another clearly synonymous phrase of support in respect of an agenda item.

:2. A NEGATIVE vote is registered by a voting member of the Senate stating in his/her post "NO", "DISSENTIO", or another clearly synonymous phrase of opposition in respect of an agenda item.

:3. An ABSTENTION is expressed with a voting member of the Senate’s stating in his/her post "ABSTINEO", "I ABSTAIN" or another clearly synonymous phrase of abstention in respect of an agenda item. Abstentions are not considered to be votes, and are not counted when calculating the number required for a majority. Abstentions do not diminish the number of Senators considered present when determining whether a quorum is achieved.

:4. VII.G.7.1 to VII.G.7.3 inclusive may include supporting comments to explain the reason why the voting member of the Senate cast his vote in manner he/she did. There shall be no limit on the text length of such comments.

:5. Except where otherwise stated, a Senatus consultum or Senatus consultum ultimum is passed and enacted when the number of affirmative votes (as described above) equals or exceeds the number required for a "simple majority".

:6. The voting period may begin at sunrise in Rome on the first day of the voting period and may end at sunset in Rome on the last day of the voting period, or may be set to sunrise and sunset in the time zone in which the presiding magistrate is resident.

:7. During the voting period members of the Senate must not continue discussion on the agenda items put to the vote. In cases of exceptional urgency a member of the Senate may request permission, by private email, and not on the Senate list, from the presiding magistrate to bring a new item to the attention of the Senate. This shall be treated as an item for information and discussion only and must not be included in the items to be voted upon.

:8. Any agenda item presented to the Senate for the vote must be in one of the following categories:

::a. Draft Senatus Consultum

::b. Draft Senatus Consultum Ultimum

:9. All positions and/or offices that the Senate is authorized by the legal code to appoint persons to must:

==VIII. RECESS AND CLOSE OF SESSION==

A. Once the voting period has elapsed the presiding magistrate shall calculate and post to the Senate list no later than 48 hours after the expiration of that period, the results of the vote by referring to the voting posts and calculating the results for each item voted upon.

B. After the official result of the vote is posted, the presiding magistrate must post a call to close within 24 hours of that official result being determined, and if he/she fails to do so then the session immediately that 24 hours period has expired shall automatically be deemed to be closed.

C. For the purposes of I.B.4 and II.B.6.e of the Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum the method of conferring with the Senate shall be delegated to the presiding magistrate of the formal meeting of the Senate in session where the item of a confidential nature in question is being/was discussed.

:1. The decision of the presiding magistrate as to what details of the discussion and/or comments and/or voting should be released to the citizens is deemed to be a decision of the whole Senate.

:2. Such a decision VIII.J.1 shall be binding on the Tribunes for the purposes of I.B.4 and II.B.6.e of the Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum, as to what to report to the citizens concerning the item of a confidential nature in question.

D. The presiding magistrate may issue the call to recess a formal meeting of the Senate in session for a period of time between 24 hours and 144 hours. If after 144 hours have elapsed the presiding magistrate of that recessed session has not called the Senate to order and recommenced the session, then that session is deemed closed. The presiding magistrate may not issue the call to recess during the voting period.

E. The presiding magistrate may issue the call to close at any time, except during the voting period.

==IX. CONTEMPT OF THE SENATE==

Any member of the Senate or other magistrate who disregards the invocation of closed session conditions or disregards the invocation of the Senate seal, such disregard being determined by the president of the session or, ultimately, by the princeps senatus, or disrespects and insults the Senate, the presiding magistrate, the princeps senatus, another senator, or commits an act deemed in this senatus consultum to be contempt of the Senate, shall be automatically found in contempt of the Senate. In respect of a matter of contempt of the Senate, the presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus shall issue a warning publicly on the mailing list of the Senate, and if the individual does not amend his or her action that caused the contempt of the Senate, the presiding magistrate may suspend the speaking rights of the individual (Senate mailing list posting rights), may remove them from the session (removing them from the Senate mailing list), which disciplinary actions both constitute a suspension of the voting right of the individual). The length of these disciplinary actions shall be decided by the princeps senatus, and may not be shorter than 3 days and longer than 3 months. The contempt of the Senate may only be established with the expressed consent of the princeps senatus, but the decision of removing an individual from the session or the Senate mailing list may only be made by the presiding magistrate. The Senate may also declare an action to be contempt of the Senate, or may override declaration of the princeps senatus regarding an issue about contempt of the Senate in a senatus consultum.

==X. THE PRINCEPS SENATUS==

A. The princeps senatus must be the most respected and highest ranking censorial and consular patrician senator who holds the longest, continuous and uninterrupted record of membership of the Senate. When the censors select the princeps senatus during the lectio senatus, they may select someone who does not meet all these criteria if, and only if, they provide a justification for such a decision. Senatorial rank is determined by the ranking of the auctoritas of the highest office held by the senator. Within each rank group, the ones who held the office more than once are higher ranking. Among those who held the same office the same number of times, those held it earlier are higher ranking. Among senators of the same rank, older individuals are higher ranking.

B. The princeps senatus shall have the following honors, powers, limits and obligations.

:1. To be the final authority to determine if the procedures of this Senatus Consultum have been violated by any member of the Senate either in the manner of application of, or in the failure to comply with, such procedures, whether through negligence or a deliberate act.

:2. To be the final authority on what is acceptable conduct to be expected from members of the Senate, both during informal Senate discussion and formal meetings of the Senate in session.

:3. To be the final authority on determining the meaning of any part of this Senatus Consultum where such meaning is unclear to any member of the Senate, and/or to arbitrate in any dispute between members of the Senate over such meaning. The princeps senatus has the ultimate authority on approving, rejecting, or creating, a rule of session.

C. If the princeps senatus is unavailable, the princeps iuventutis shall exercise his or her duties. If the princeps iuventutis is not a senator, he or she shall be temporarily invited to the Senate mailing list and allowed to speak in the Senate, or to preside in session, when needed, but without the right to vote. If the princeps iuventutis is unavailable, the president of the session shall decide in all questions.

==XI. QUORUM==

A. The quorum for the Senate of Nova Roma is only required for formal meeting of the Senate in session.

B. The quorum is calculated and based on only voting members of the Senate.

C. The required quorum must be achieved at the time the call to order is posted.

D. If the quorum is not achieved then the call to order cannot be posted and no formal meeting of the Senate in session can legally be held. Any formal meeting of the Senate in session that is held where the quorum is not achieved is illegal and no Senatus consultum or Senatus consultum ultimum passed during such an illegal session shall have any legal force or validity.

E. A voting member of the Senate is deemed present at the time the call to order is posted if that member has not posted to the Senate list that he/she will be absent, using the process at VI.F.

F. Once the quorum is established as being present at the time the call to order is posted, no challenges by any member of the Senate to establish if it is present subsequently shall be legal or permitted. Such challenges if made shall be an extreme disruption to a formal meeting of the Senate in session, as defined at III.E.3.

G. Any member of the Senate present at the time the call to order is posted, by virtue of not having posted his/her absence at VI.F, may state that he/she is leaving the formal meeting of the Senate in session, but for the purposes of the quorum he/she is deemed to still be present during the remainder of the session conducted in his/her absence.

H. Any calculation of the results of the voting stage shall treat the vote of any member of the Senate leaving after the call order, as defined at XI.G, as an abstention vote as defined at VII.G.3.

I. The quorum required must be 2/3rds (two thirds) of the total number of voting members of the Senate, where fractions are rounded up to the next nearest whole number. For example if there are 22 voting members of the Senate, 2/3rds is 14.666 recurring. Therefore the quorum would be 15 voting members of the Senate, who would have to present immediately before the call to order.

J. Those voting members of the Senate who have identified themselves as absent under the process at VI.F will be counted as being present during a formal meeting of the Senate in session that occurs during that period of absence for the purposes of the calculation of the quorum if they have assigned the grant of a proxy vote under the process at VI.F. If they have not assigned a proxy vote then they will be counted as absent.

K. The presiding magistrate must make the calculation of whether the quorum has been achieved. The call to order must not be made until the calculation is made and the quorum established as being achieved as defined at XI.I. The presiding magistrate must immediately before the call to order post is made follow the steps below in consecutive order:

:1. Count the number of voting members of the Senate who have identified themselves as absent, under the process at VI.F.

:2. Calculate the quorum as under XI.I.

:3. Subtract the number at XI.K.1 from the total number of voting members of the Senate.

:4. If the result of the subtraction at XI.K.3 is greater than the quorum as at XI.I, then the quorum has been achieved and the call to order may be posted and the formal meeting of the Senate in session can proceed.

:5. If the result of the subtraction at XI.K.3 is less than the quorum as at XI.I, then the quorum has not been achieved and the call to order must not be posted and the formal meeting of the Senate in session cannot proceed.

L. Where the quorum is achieved and the call to order made, the presiding magistrate shall include in the call to order post the statement “The quorum is achieved”. The presiding magistrate must also include in the call to order post the calculations made at XI.K.1 to XI.K.3 inclusive.

M. Where the quorum is not achieved, the presiding magistrate shall post to the Senate list a post with a subject heading “Formal meeting of the Senate in session cancelled”. This post must include, within the body of the post, the statement “The quorum is not achieved”. The presiding magistrate shall also include in the body of the post the calculations made at XI.K.1 to XI.K.3 inclusive.

==XII. THE SENATE LIST==

A. The owner of the Senate mailing list, the internet version of the curia, shall be the legal owner of the mailing list. The owner owns it on behalf of Nova Roma and is obliged to obey the presiding magistrates of the Senate under penalty of law.

B. The moderators shall be the consuls and praetors. Moderators shall have the same admin rights as the owner except the deletion of the mailing list and modification of the archives.

==XIII. CALENDAR AND RELIGIOUS MATTERS==

No session of the Senate may be held without taking the auspices before with favorable result and without an opening and closing ceremony of the religio Romana; any senatus consultum enacted without this procedural step shall be invalid. The Senate follows the directions of the Collegium Pontificum on religious and calendar matters.

==XIV. ANNOTATION AND STYLE==

A. The use of (s) in this Senatus consultum indicates that the singular occurrence of the word may also be read as the plural of that word. Absence of such (s) shall not necessarily imply that the plural cannot be inferred.

B. Where not stated otherwise, as at XIV.C, the use of a combination of letters, Roman numerals, Arabic numerals, such as XXX.A.1.a.i, is a reference to a corresponding section of this Senatus consultum.

C. Similar types of combination at XIV.B can also be used to indicate a corresponding section of either the Constitution of Nova Roma or a named lex.

D. The use of a descriptive title to describe sections of this Senatus consultum is only to assist in providing a brief general description of the contents in that section. Such a title does not form part of the reference method described at XIV.B.

E. The use of italics is for ease of reference only and no extra meaning shall be construed from such use.

Relatio de corpore regularum senatus perpetuo (Nova Roma)

2026-02-25T20:28:15Z

Decimus Aurelius Ingeniarius: Establishing.

''A senatorial decree concerning the permanent body of the rules of the Senate.''


__TOC__

==Introduction==

I. Under the authority of section V.F. of the Constitution of Nova Roma, the senate hereby consolidates and enacts the following decree to define its own internal procedures.

II. The enactment of this decree provides revised senate rules which are necessitated to consolidate a series of past decrees. With the growth and modification of senate rules overtime, there is now conflicting legislation and even previously rescinded decrees being inadvertently reenacted. The following senatus consulta, are now considered lapsed and superseded, as are all others preceding them:

:A. Senatus consultum de ratione senatus MMDCCLIX, 6 August 2006

:B. Senatus consultum de ratione senatus MMDCCLXV, 31 January 2012

:C. Senatus consultum de senatu habendo, 29 May 2019

:D. Senatus consultum de sententia in propria persona dicenda, 30 Dec 2023

:E. Senatus consultum de senatu habendo M. Cotta C. Petronio coss, 30 Dec 2024

* Presiding magistrate: The consul, praetor, tribune or the princeps senatus who intends to issue, or issues, or issued the “call to convene”. This term is only ever used in connection with a “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. The presiding magistrate that issued the call to convene must also issue the “call to order”, the “call to vote”, the “call to close” and any “call to recess”. The duties, honors, powers, limits and obligations of any member of the Senate who is a “presiding magistrate” shall be limited to only those as specified in this Senatus consultum.

==III. PRESIDING MAGISTRATE==

:1. The Tribune must clearly state in the call to convene the subject that he/she seeks advice on together with any relevant sections of the legal code that is the subject of advice sought, or which the Tribune will reference in any way during the formal meeting of the Senate in session. Any failure to comply with III.C.1 above shall be deemed to be an automatic termination of the call to convene and deemed contempt of the Senate.

:3. The Tribune must not deviate from, alter, or add to, the content of the call to convene at any time and any deviation, alteration or addition shall be deemed to be illegal and an automatic termination of the formal meeting of the Senate in session and deemed contempt of the Senate. The only item(s) that the Tribune shall present to the Senate during the voting period is/are that one/those contained within the call to convene.

:4. In any formal meeting of the Senate in session where a Tribune is the presiding magistrate, no Senatus Consultum Ultimum can be enacted and any such attempt to do so shall be deemed to be contempt of the Senate. The only lawfully permitted content of any draft Senatus Consultum put to the vote during such a session is in the form of advice and the content must state: “The advice of the Senate of Nova Roma is as follows”. Such a Senatus Consultum must also state at the end of the advice “This advice is non-binding and is not, and shall not be interpreted as, a direction, order or command of the Senate of Nova Roma.”

:5. A Tribune who is the presiding magistrate must not recess a formal meeting of the Senate in session, except for the reasons specified at XIII.A.<ref>Article III.C.5, disregard “except for the reasons specified at XIII.A.”.</ref>
:6. A Tribune who is the presiding magistrate must not put to the vote a draft Senatus consultum as at III.C.4 the content of which seeks to interpret, define or offer advice on this Senatus consultum or any part of it thereof. Any such act shall be deemed to be contempt of the Senate.

E. The presiding magistrate may require, by means of a call for order, a member of the Senate, or other magistrate, to cease his/her posting, but that requirement must only be when such posting:

:1. Violates XII.E.

:2. Is not concerned with any item on the agenda currently under debate.

:3. Causes a disruption in the proceedings of the formal meeting of the Senate in session and/or the business of the Senate, and/or the period of the session.

:If the member of the Senate, or other magistrate, fails and/or refuses to comply with the direction of the presiding magistrate to cease posting in the call for order, and where such posts continue to violate any or all of the sections III.E.1 to III.E.3 inclusive, then that member of the Senate, or other magistrate, may have his/her posting rights set to a moderated status requiring approval of posts, but only where such continued posting if unchecked, in the opinion of the presiding magistrate and the princeps senatus, would result in extreme disruption to and/or abandonment of, the session. Where a member of the Senate is placed on moderation that shall also be deemed contempt of the Senate. Ratification of such moderated status is required by the means specified at IX.A.2 during the next formal meeting of the Senate in session. Should such ratification not occur within 60 days from the date of suspension, then that moderated status is deemed cancelled and the princeps senatus or in his/her absence the Censors, shall ensure that the member of the Senate subject to such moderated status has his/her membership of the Senate list reinstated. Additionally if any other magistrate fails and/or refuses to comply with the direction of the presiding magistrate in the call for order to cease posting, then that other magistrate may be removed from the Senate list by the princeps senatus.

:4. Only the presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus may approve a post from a member of the Senate on moderated status.

:5. Such a post at III.E.4 must not be rejected in lieu of approval, except in cases of a clear and obvious breach of XII.E or such a post deleted after approval. Such a post must be left pending approval.

:6. Such a post pending approval must be approved and released for publication to the Senate list as soon as is reasonably practicable after the call to close has been posted. The definition of “reasonably practicable” is as defined by the princeps senatus.

:7. Such an approval at III.E.6 does not imply approval of the contents and does not indemnify the member of the Senate from any consequences arising from the content. The presiding magistrate or princeps senatus approving such a post are indemnified from any sanction that may be applied under the provisions of this Senatus Consultum if such a post is found to constitute contempt of the Senate, or any other provision that results in a sanction being applied.

:8. The exception to the approval of such a post at III.E.7 shall be in circumstances where there is a clear and obvious breach of XII.E, in which case the post must be rejected and a post made to the Senate list stating the name of the poster and the fact that the post had been rejected for a breach of XII.E. In justifying such rejection no part of the rejected post shall be quoted verbatim, but may be summarized in a manner that does not breach XII.E. Verbatim reposting shall be a breach of XII.E.

:9. No indemnification at III.E.8 exists if quoted verbatim or the summary at breaches XII.E, but the member of the Senate on moderated status who originally authored the post shall not himself/herself be subject to a sanction based on either the verbatim quote or the summary. The responsibility in such a case for a breach of XII.E rests solely with the approver of the post.

F. The presiding magistrate may not delegate or share his role or functions, or part thereof, at any time, but may permit another member of the Senate to introduce an item on the agenda and post his/her opinion on it.

G. The presiding magistrate must observe the following consecutive sequence of events in the below order during a formal meeting of the Senate in session:

:1. Call to convene

:2. Call to order

:3. Call to vote

:4. Call to close

As an exception to the above consecutive sequence, the call to order must also be issued after the expiration of the period of time specified in a call to recess.

H. A Consul, or if both Consuls are unavailable a Praetor, who is presiding magistrate must ensure that a formal meeting of the Senate in session does not extend into a period when his/her colleague holds the rods:

:1. Without first obtaining permission from his/her colleague prior to issuing the call to convene,

:2. Or if the overlap occurs during the session then the presiding magistrate must obtain the permission from his/her colleague fast as is reasonably practicable.

:3. The definition of “reasonably practicable” is as defined by the princeps senatus.

:4. If his/her colleague refuses permission, at III.H.1 or III.H.2 then the presiding magistrate shall either:

::a. Shorten any period of the session, but not below that permitted as a minimum by this Senatus Consultum, to prevent or correct any such extension, or

::b. Issue the call to close on no later than the last day he/she holds the rods, provided that last day is one that the Senate is permitted to hold a session on subject to that last day not being one prohibited by XIII.A.<ref>Article III.H.4.b, change the section “XIII.A.” to “any calendar day”.</ref>
:5. If the extension occurs as a result of proposing to increase the vote period and the vote period has not commenced, the length of vote period automatically remain as it was prior to the increase.

:6. If the vote period is already underway when the extension is identified and brought to the attention of the Senate, or is not brought to the attention of the Senate, then the vote period shall continue regardless of the fact that it extends into the period the colleague of the presiding magistrate holds the rods.

==Convening the senate==

III. A lawful formal meeting of the Senate requires a single presiding magistrate. As per the constitution, the following magistrates may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate:

:A. A consul may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate for any purpose.

:B. A praetor may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate for any purpose.

:C. A tribune may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate only to ask the Senate's advice on matters within their scope as defined under law.

:D. The princeps senatus may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate if the consuls and praetors are unavailable to conduct business and an urgent matter requires a session of the Senate.

IV. Among the magistrates, the right to convene a formal meeting of the Senate is determined by who "holds the rods", a state of affairs deriving from the right to the fasces. Traditionally, the senior consul, or the consul elected with most centuries, or in the case of a tie, the older of the two, shall “hold the rods” first in the January of the next year following his/her election. Conventionally, the period of time in which one possess the rods is monthly or otherwise by mutual agreement between the consuls (or praetors). A suffect consul shall “hold the rods” as and when his/her predecessor would have held them had he/she remained in office. A colleague who does not hold the rods may commence a formal meeting of the Senate when a magistrate is unavailable. In accordance with the lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda IV.G.1, any magistrate or any officer can be declared unavailable if they were demonstrably informed that they were invited to make a decision or action, but they are still unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted and fully informed:

:A. Should both consuls be unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted a praetor, or if otherwise collegially granted by both consuls, a praetor has the right to convene a formal meeting of the Senate. A praetor may also convene a formal meeting of the Senate if granted by just one consul if the other consul remains unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted by either his or her consular colleague or by the requesting praetor. Should there be disagreement between the praetors as to who may convene the Senate in this instant, the senior praetor, or the praetor elected with most centuries, or in the case of a tie, the older of the two, shall convene the Senate.

:B. Should there be an urgent issue requiring the attention of the Senate, the princeps senatus may issue a call to convene a formal meeting should both consuls and praetors be unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted and fully informed.

:C. A tribune may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate only after having notified the consuls and confirming that the consuls themselves do not intend to call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate within 72-hours. Should both consuls be unresponsive for 72-hours after having been notified by a tribune, or if otherwise collegially acknowldged by both consuls, a tribune may issue a call to convene a formal meeting of the Senate. A tribune may also convene a formal meeting of the Senate if acknowledged by just one consul if the other consul remains unresponsive 72-hours after having been contacted by either his or her consular colleague or by the notifying tribune.

V. In order to commence a lawful formal meeting of the Senate, the presiding magistrate must issue a "Call to Convene". A Call to Convene must adhere to the following:

:A. A Call to Convene must be a post by the presiding magistrate sent to the "Senate list" stating his/her intent to "call the Senate to order". This post commences the process to initiate a formal meeting of the Senate in session. The presiding magistrate may also send the call to convene post to any other list at his/her discretion. In cases of discrepancy of content between the call to convene post made to the Senate list and one or more call to convene post(s) made to any other list, the call to convene post to the Senate list shall be considered the definitive and only legal call to convene.

:B. An initial agenda must be included in the call to convene detailing the items to be discussed. Substantive details are not required, but may be included by the presiding magistrate. Sufficient detail must be included such that members of the Senate can reasonably be expected to understand the general nature of the topic of each agenda item. The definition of "reasonably expected" is as defined by the princeps senatus.

:C. The call to convene post must specify the time and date when the Senate will be called to order, the times and dates of the commencement and end of the debate period, and times and dates of the of the commencement and end of the voting period. The presiding magistrate of the session may leave the end dates of the debate period, voting period and the end of the session unspecified if he or she cannot clearly predict the length of time necessary for those procedures. If there is more than one item on the agenda, none of these items can have an individual times/dates of commencement/end of debate applied to them. Debate on all items on the agenda is to be simultaneous during the debate period.

* Formal meeting of the Senate in session / session: The period of time between the time and date of the “call to convene” and the time and date of the “call to close” of a session of the Senate. This period of time is the only time that the “business of the Senate” can be addressed by way of Senatus consultum or Senatus consultum ultimum.

T he presiding magistrate may also depart from the time schedule given in the call to convene or call to order as long as there no senator raises an objection against the changed timing.

B. A call to order cannot be made until 24 hours have elapsed after the call to convene was issued.

G. The length of the debate period specified for all the items on the agenda, within the call to convene, must be a minimum of 96 hours.

:1.

:2. The exception to IV.G.1 is a cultus or religio item(s) described at XIII.B, which must be placed first on the agenda. Where there is more than one such items then debate on them must comply with the conditions at IV.G.1.<ref>Article IV.G.2, disregard “described at XIII.B”.</ref>
:3. Where there are more than one such cultus or religio XIII.B items at IV.G.2, they must be allocated, as a block of items, a minimum of 96 hours of debate, and the end time and date of the debate period on such block of cultus or religio XIII.B items must be specified in the agenda.<ref>Article IV.G.3, disregard “XIII.B” in both instances it appears.</ref>
:4. All other civil agenda items must then be allocated, as a block of items, a separate minimum of 96 hours that must follow the items specified at IV.G.2 and debate on such civil items must comply with the conditions at IV.G.1. The end time and date of the debate period on such block of XIII.B civil items must be specified.<ref>Article IV.G.4, disregard “XIII.B civil”.</ref>
H. A call to convene must be made by only one presiding magistrate, who must not act jointly with any other member(s) of the Senate, whether any such other(s) are defined as a presiding magistrate or not.

I. If after the call to convene is posted, but before the call to order is issued, the presiding magistrate wishes to cancel that formal meeting of the Senate in session, then he/she must do so by way of a post to the Senate list, with a subject heading “Formal meeting of the Senate in session cancelled”, stating in the body of the post the reason(s) for such cancellation.

==I. DEFINITIONS==

The definitions below shall be the only meaning applicable to their usage in this Senatus consultum. Any requirement(s), limit(s) or other condition(s) specified within a definition shall have the full legal force of this Senatus Consultum attached to it and therefore compliance with such a requirement(s), limit(s) or other condition(s) shall be mandatory. The absence of a definition in this section shall not be construed as any lack of full legal force of the word or phrase in question. Other sections of this Senatus consultum may also provide definitions for words or phrases not included in this section. Inclusion of quotation marks around a word or phrase and its highlighting in bold type in section I of this Senatus consultum is only for ease of reference to indicate that such a word or phrase is included in section I of this Senatus consultum and no additional or lesser legal force shall be construed from that. Exclusion of quotation marks around a word or phrase and any highlighting in bold type in any section of this Senatus consultum shall not construe any additional or lesser legal force arising from that exclusion, nor shall it be construed that such a word or phrase has a different meaning or definition from an identical occurrence of it in section I of this Senatus consultum.

* Active agenda item: An item on the agenda that has not been withdrawn.

* Agenda: The list of items that are initially proposed for debate during a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” contained within the “call to convene”, and which may subsequently amended according to the terms of this Senatus consultum.

* Arbitrate: With or without invitation by all, or by any, of the parties to a dispute or disagreement, make an authoritative decision to resolve such a dispute or disagreement, and to have the authority to compel all the parties to accept and/or comply with that result. Such a resolve shall be a final and absolute result not subject to any appeal.

* Another magistrate / other magistrate: A magistrate, not being a “member of the senate”, who has been specifically permitted by the “presiding magistrate” to address the Senate during a “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. This definition includes a curule aedile, a plebeian aedile, a quaestor, any other person elected by one of the comitia, a governor of a Nova Roman province, a provincial magistrate of first to fourth rank, a magistrate of an oppidum or municipium and any person appointed by the Senate to their position. This definition does not include a scribe and accensus, who shall not be permitted to join the “Senate list” unless he/she is also, in addition to that position of scribe or accensus already a “member of the Senate”. The invitation to such “another magistrate” is for one “formal meeting of the Senate in session” only. Such a magistrate is bound by all the restrictions in relation to posting, conduct, and confidentiality within this Senatus Consultum. There must be a clearly established and pressing need for such “other magistrate” to have access to the “Senate list” during the session and the “presiding magistrate” shall explain that need in his/her “call to order”. If in the opinion of the princeps senatus there has been a flagrant abuse of this right of invitation with no such need established, or there was no reason for the need stated in the “call to order”, then such behaviour on the part of the “presiding magistrate” shall be deemed to be “contempt of the Senate”. For the purposes of posting to the “Senate list” during the “debate period”, this “other magistrate” must first obtain either specific permission for each such post, or a standing right of posting for any time during the “debate period”. The standing right applies only to that one “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. The choice between specific permission and standing right is at the discretion of the “presiding magistrate”.

* Business of the Senate: The functions, fulfilment of the purposes of and compliance with the lawful duties of the Senate, such functions, purposes and duties being as defined within the “legal code”. Also this includes the management and operation of the “Senate list”.

He/she may attach such directions in the body of the post as are necessary in his/her opinion to prevent such a violation. Such directions shall not include a stated or implied sanction. The presiding magistrate may issue as many calls for order as he/she deems necessary in relation to any occurrence of such a type of posting, until it is clear that the risk of a violation of III.E has, in his/her opinion, ceased. Should such a call for order not be complied with then it may be deemed to be contempt of the Senate at the discretion of the presiding magistrate.

* Call to close: A post by the presiding magistrate sent to the “Senate list” stating that the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” has concluded. The presiding magistrate may include comments in the “call to close”. The “call to close” must have no other function than notifying the Senate of the close of session. After the “call to close” is posted no further business of the Senate that requires a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” shall be conducted without the issue of a new “call to convene”.

* Call to order / called to order / call the Senate to order: A post of the presiding magistrate during the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” indicating that Senate is in session. This shall be issued either at or after the time and date when the session first commences as defined in the “call to convene”, or following the expiration of a recess of the “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. No “business of the Senate” shall be conducted until the “call to order” has been posted. The most recent periods of time allocated to debate and/or voting shall continue to decrease after the time and date of the “call to order”, as specified in the “call to convene”, or after the expiration of a period of recess in the “call to recess”, whether the “call to order” is posted or not. The “call to order” shall also include the most recent “agenda”.

* Call to recess: A post by the “presiding magistrate” sent to the “Senate list” stating his/her intent to recess the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” until a time and date as specified in that post. The most recent periods of time allocated to debate and/or voting shall cease to decrease after the “call to recess” is posted and no “business of the Senate” that requires a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” shall be conducted until the expiration of the period of recess and the “call to order” is posted.

* Call to vote: A post by the presiding magistrate on the “Senate list” that initiates the “voting period”. No “voting posts” shall be posted until the “call to vote” is posted.

* Closed session: A discussion on an “active agenda” item of a confidential nature that automatically invokes the requirement of the tribunes to confer with the Senate as under the requirements of I.B.4 and II.B.6.e of the [[Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum (Nova Roma)|Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum]]. This requirement shall exist and survive regardless of any superseding, alteration or repeal of, the above sections of/the entire Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum.

* Management of Senate business: The administration of the functions, fulfilment of the purposes of and compliance with the lawful duties of the Senate, such functions, purposes and duties being as defined within the “legal code”. The princeps senatus may avail himself/herself of this definition for the purpose of, and reason for, issuing a “call to convene”, when those other magistrates defined as a “presiding magistrate”, excluding those that are Tribunes due to their having only limited legal scope of purpose in respect of a “call to convene”, are unavailable due to any occurrence of a singular, or multiple combination, of loss of senatorial status, death, resignation from the Senate, renunciation of citizenship, or a “disappearance of more than 30 days”,

* Member(s) of the Senate: Any person appointed to the Senate under III. [[Lex Popillia senatoria (Nova Roma)|Lex Popillia senatoria]] and any person having the right of ius sententiae dicendae under IV.

All such persons must also be both a current citizen of Nova Roma and be recorded by the Censors as holding assidui status, by virtue of having paid the annual Nova Roman tax. For the purposes of posting to the “Senate list” during the debate period, a Tribune, who is not also a voting member of the Senate, must first obtain either specific permission for each such post, or a standing right of posting for any time during the debate period. The standing right applies only to that one “formal meeting of the Senate in session”. The choice between specific permission and standing right is at the discretion of the “presiding magistrate”. A Tribune who is also a “voting member of the Senate” may post without specific permission or standing right.

* Period of the session: The “debate period” or “voting period”

* Prohibited day: Any day that the [[Decretum Pontificum de Calendario Perpetuo (Nova Roma)|Decretum Pontificum de Calendario Perpetuo]] decrees as dies nefastus publicus or dies fasti publici or ater dies. It is prohibited and illegal for a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” to take place on any such day.

* Restricted day: Any day that the Decretum pontificum de calendario perpetuo decrees as: dies nefasti, annotated as (N), or dies endotercisi, annotated as (EN), quando rex comitiavit fas annotated as (QRCF), or quando stercus delatum fas, (QSTDF or QSDF), or is indicated as religiosus is deemed to be dies nefasti for the purpose of a determining if a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” can be conducted on a particular day.

* Rule of session: A temporary rule that shall have accorded to it the full force and legal authority of this Senatus consultum, as though it was specifically enshrined within this Senatus consultum, which is enacted solely for the purpose of resolving an issue that is not specifically covered by this Senatus consultum and where such a rule does not conflict or alter or constrain the application of any part of this Senatus consultum. Such a rule shall only be enacted, and only have force and legal authority, for the duration of the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” in which it was created and issued. The consuls and praetors or any presiding officer of a session of the Senate, except the tribuni plebis, can issue the "rule of session," but the princeps senatus shall have the right to overrule those and have the final decision on the matter." A “rule of session” shall not, where a similar issue arises again, be binding by way of precedent upon the presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus, his/her successor, or a person delegated under the terms of this Senatus consultum to act as presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus, but instead shall be considered advice only. A record must be kept in the file section of the Senate list of all such rules issued, indicating the post number, time and date of enactment, content and the name of the presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus enacting such a rule. Such rules may form the basis of subsequent amendments to this Senatus consultum. The expiration of the full force and legal authority of a “rule of session” due to the close of the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” in which it was enacted shall not remove the full force and legal authority that “rule of session” had during that “formal meeting of the Senate in session”.

* Sanction: A lawful penalty and/or consequence of an act that is unlawful, illegal.

* Senate list: The electronic meeting place where a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” is held. Currently this is: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SenatusRomanus/

Membership and/or participation in any other place or list, or using any other medium, that is used for informal Senate discussion is discretionary and must not be mandatory for a “member of the Senate”. Informal Senate discussion shall only take place on the Senate list when a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” is not in progress.

* Senate seal: A condition where all “members of the Senate” and any “other magistrate” are bound by confidentially and shall not report, or discuss, in any way with any other person(s) other than those who are “members of the Senate”, or any “other magistrate” who was present during such discussion, by any medium or means including but not limited to, regular mail, email, posting to lists or message boards, texting, telephone conversations, or in person conversations, the existence, nature and details of the “closed session” agenda item. The “presiding magistrate” invoking the “Senate seal” may specify a time period for which the “Senate seal “is in effect, but in the absence of such the time period is deemed to be in perpetuity or until released from the “Senate seal” conditions by that, or any subsequent, “presiding magistrate”. Such a release must be by means of the “presiding magistrate” releasing the “Senate seal” posting that decision to the “Senate list”. All “members of the Senate” are bound by the invocation of the “Senate seal”, whether they were present for the “formal meeting of the Senate in session” or not when the “Senate seal” was invoked.

* Senator: Person currently included in the Album senatorum

* Simple Majority: A “simple majority” is defined as the number of affirmative votes plus the number of negative votes, divided by two, with one added to that result. Abstentions are not counted when determining this number. An equivalent result may be obtained by directly comparing the numbers of affirmative and negative votes, again ignoring abstentions; if the number of affirmative votes exceeds (not merely equals) the number of negative votes, the item has succeeded, and the Senate has voted in favour of the item.

* Terms of Service / ToS: The contents of the general Terms of Service (ToS) of Groups.io is located here: https://groups.io/static/tos.

* Unfavourable: In the context of the auspices, a result that indicates a reason to delay a proposed “formal meeting of the Senate in session”, based on observations made by the person taking the auspices and where such observations are subject to rules of interpretation enacted by the Collegium augurum.

Lex Popillia senatoria and any person having the right of ius sententiae dicendae under IV.A or IV.C Lex Popillia senatoria, excluding at IV.C Lex Popillia senatoria a Tribune, and any person holding the office of Tribune who is also a person appointed to the Senate under III. Lex Popillia senatoria, or any person holding the office of Tribune who also holds a right to vote in the Senate granted by the Lex Popillia. A Tribune not being a Senator or who does not also hold a right to vote in the Senate granted by the Lex Popillia senatoria cannot vote in the Senate, and shall not be defined as a “voting member of the Senate”, as prohibited from doing so by IV.A Lex Popillia senatoria and/or by this definition of “voting member of the Senate, by right granted to the Senate under V.F of the Constitution of Nova Roma. A “voting member of the Senate” shall have the right to post to the “Senate list” without asking prior permission to do so, unless he/she is subject to a lawful sanction, lawfully imposed under any section of this Senatus consultum concerning such sanction(s).

* Voting period / period of voting: The period of time in a “formal meeting of the Senate in session” during which the “voting members of the Senate” cast their votes. That period must be no less than 48 hours in length and no greater than 96 hours in length. No debate shall take place during this period, except as permitted under VII.G.7.

* Voting posts: The posts made by “voting members of the Senate” by which mechanism those members register a vote according to the requirements of VII.G on items presented to the vote.

==II. INFORMAL SENATE DISCUSSION==<ref>"When there are no censors in office, all procedural decisions assigned to the censors shall be made by the consuls."</ref>
A. Any member of the Senate may, at his/her discretion, when a formal meeting of the Senate in session is not being held, introduce any topic for discussion by sharing it with the rest of the Senate by means of posting to the Senate list.

B. No call to convene, call to order, or call to close is required to start or end an informal Senate discussion. A vote may not take place nor any Senatus Consultum or Senatus Consultum Ultimum be enacted during informal Senate discussion.

C. Members of the Senate remain bound by the requirements of XII.E. Moderation of posting rights shall not occur during informal Senate discussion, unless in the opinion of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors, that such discussion has resulted in a violation of XII.E, in which case the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors, must:<ref>Article II.C, disregard the sentence parts “Members of the Senate remain bound by the requirements of XII.E.” and “of XII.E” in the next sentence.</ref>
:1. Post a requirement to the Senate list for the member of the Senate who, in his/her or their opinion, violated XII.E to cease posting. A period of time maybe requested, but not imposed, during which the member of the Senate should desist from posting. At the expiration of such time, which must be no greater than 4 hours, the member of the Senate can post freely without further sanction, provided he/she does not further violate XII.E.<ref>Article II.C.1, change the section “violated XII.E” to “posted a violation,”. In the next sentence, change “does not further violate XII.E.” to “does not post further violations”.</ref>
:2. Should that member of the Senate fail and/or refuse to comply with the direction to cease posting and continue posting in a manner that in the opinion of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors has, or is likely to, lead to a breach of XII.E, then that member of the Senate may have his/her posting rights set to a moderated status requiring approval of posts.<ref>In article II.C.2, replace the sentence part “or is likely to, lead to a breach of XII.E” with “leads to further breaches”.</ref>
:3. Such moderated status at II.C.2 must last no longer than 24 hours and at the expiration of that period the moderated status must be removed.

:4. Should the period of moderated status at II.C.2 still be in force after a call to order is posted, then that moderated status must be immediately removed to allow the member of the Senate to participate in the session.

:5. Moderated status removed as at II.C.4 prior to its expiration will not be re-imposed for the remaining balance of the 24 hours after the call to close is posted, unless the member of the Senate continued, in the opinion of the princeps senatus, to violate XII.E during the formal meeting of the Senate in session.<ref>Article II.C.5, change the section “to violate XII.E” to “to continue violations”.</ref>
:6. The re-imposition of the remaining balance at II.C.5 is not affected by the removal of any moderated status imposed during the formal meeting of the Senate in session.

:7. If a member of the Senate commits numerous violations in separate posts before moderation of posting rights is imposed, the period of moderation shall still be no longer than 24 hours.

:8. Repeated violations of XII.E resulting in a combined total of 72 hours of moderated status in any five day consecutive period may result, notwithstanding II.C.3 and II.C.7, in moderated status being continuously imposed until the next call to order of the next formal meeting of the Senate in session. An imposition of this continuous moderation is at the discretion of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors. At such a call to order the moderated status must be removed. After the call to close, the decision whether to re-impose moderated status is at the discretion of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors and may be based on the behaviour / posts of that moderated member of the Senate during the formal meeting of the Senate in session. Removal of continuous moderated status before any set maximum number of hours is at the discretion of the princeps senatus.<ref>Article II.C.8, disregard “of XII.E”.</ref>
:9. Moderated status imposed at II.C.8 for the first time in any 365 day period must in no cases last longer than a maximum of 720 hours, excluding the total periods of time between the call to order and the call to close of any formal meetings of the Senate in session during that first occurrence of continuous moderation.

:10. Moderated status imposed at II.C.8 for the second time in any 365 day period must in no cases last longer than a maximum of 2160 hours, excluding the total periods of time between the call to order and the call to close of any formal meetings of the Senate in session during that first occurrence of continuous moderation.

:11. Moderated status imposed at II.C.8 for the third time in any 365 day period shall result in continuous moderation with no limit, the removal of which is at the discretion of the princeps senatus.

:12. If after release from such a third time of moderation at II.C.8, the member of the Senate is subject to a further period of moderation of any length, whether imposed during an informal Senate discussion period or during session, within 6 months since the date of release from the third time of moderation at II.C.8, the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors, may impose continuous moderation with no limit during informal Senate discussion periods. Removal of such continuous moderation is at the discretion of the princeps senatus.

:13. Regardless of the length of moderated status, either set or until removal, this moderated status only applies to informal Senate discussion periods. Any member of the Senate so moderated must be released temporarily from that moderated status for the time between the call to order and the call to close of any formal meetings of the Senate in session.

:14. A member of the Senate subject to moderation imposed during informal Senate discussion periods is still bound by the requirements on members of the Senate during formal meetings of the Senate in session, and no such moderation can exonerate or indemnify him/her from further sanctions that may be imposed on him/her as a result of any violations of behaviour during formal meetings of the Senate in session.

:15. Hours of moderation imposed during session do not subtract from, or add to, any total of moderated hours a member of the Senate is subject to during informal Senate discussion periods.

:16. Release from a period of moderation imposed during informal Senate discussion periods, either by the expiration of the period of moderation or by decision of the princeps senatus, or in his/her absence the Censors, does not imply or result in the alteration, suspension or termination of any sanctions imposed as a result of behavioural infractions during formal meetings of the Senate in session.

D. No person other than a member of the Senate shall participate in informal Senate discussion, nor shall be added to the Senate list during such a period.

E. During informal Senate discussion a Tribune(s) must not be subject to any requirement to obtain permission from any member of the Senate prior to posting to the Senate list, nor must any other conditions, other than those applicable to all members of the Senate as specified within this Senatus Consultum, be imposed or applied to a Tribune(s).

F. The rights of reporting at VI.B.1 to VI.B.4 inclusive do not apply to informal Senate discussion periods and such reporting during these periods is forbidden.

==V. PRESENTING AGENDA ITEMS TO THE SENATE==

A. The presiding magistrate must post the call to order to commence the formal meeting of the Senate in session and must present to the Senate one or more matters on the agenda for debate.

B. The presiding magistrate may introduce items to the agenda other than those listed in the call to convene. These maybe his/her items or he/she may accept items from a member of the Senate or another magistrate.

C. Any new item(s) to the agenda may be included at any time between when the call to convene is issued and the commencement of the voting period. If its inclusion on the agenda occurs after the call to order, then 96 hours must be allowed for debate on that new item, with that 96 hours commencing from the time and date of its inclusion on the agenda. The debate period will need to be increased after such an inclusion after the call to order, but such increase is subject to the permitted maximum number of hours for debate at VI.A.4.a and if the inclusion of the item would exceed that permitted maximum, then the item shall not be included.

==VI. DEBATE, REPORTING, PROXY AND CLOSE==

A. After the call to order, members of the Senate may offer their opinions on any item on the agenda presented by the presiding magistrate in the call to order by means of a post to the Senate list.

:1. The debate shall include members of the Senate and any other magistrate.

:2. There shall be no limit on the text length of such opinions.

:3. The presiding magistrate may at his/her discretion extend the period of debate, and may shorten it, but a reduction in the debate period must never reduce the number of hours allotted for debate from the number specified in the call to convene.

:4. The number of hours allocated by the presiding magistrate to the debate period must always be between a minimum of 96 hours, or the number of hours set in the call to convene whichever is greater, and a maximum of 288 hours.

::a. Amendments to the debate period at the time of, or after the call to order, shall never result in the debate period exceeding 288 hours.

::b. The addition of the number of hours of debate at IV.G.3 and the number of hours of debate at IV.G.4 must never exceed the maximum of 288 hours.

B. In addition to the provisions of the [[Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum (Nova Roma)|Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum]], the Tribunes may, at their discretion collectively or individually, keep the citizens informed as to the progress and content of the debate period. The format for informing the citizens between these periods must be as follows:

:1. Full verbatim transcripts of any/all post(s) of any member of the Senate or other magistrate made to the Senate list during the formal meeting of the Senate that the Tribune is reporting on.

:2. Partial transcripts of any/all post(s) of any member of the Senate or other magistrate made to the Senate list during the formal meeting of the Senate that the Tribune is reporting on, with a summation of the parts of that post not recorded as verbatim transcript.

:3. A summation of any/all post(s) of any member of the Senate or other magistrate made to the Senate list during the formal meeting of the Senate that the Tribune is reporting on.

:4. Any mix of VI.B.1, VI.B.2) or VI.B.3 above during the formal meeting of the Senate in session that the Tribune is reporting on. Such a mix is at the discretion of the Tribune reporting.

C. The right of reporting at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4 inclusive is a privilege the Senate grants to the Tribunes in addition to those rights under the Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum.<ref>“Senate sessions shall be reported to the Nova Roman people in the forum by the president of the session. This reporting shall be made no later than within 24 hours after the closing of the session. The tribunes of the plebs may also publish, but are not obliged to publish, their own report of the session to the people, including as many details as they think necessary, as long as they observe the laws that define the tribunes' reporting activity.”</ref>
:1. Any departure from, or abuse of, the process at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4 inclusive, including but not limited to, inaccurate or false reporting of verbatim transcripts and/or grossly inaccurate summations may, at the discretion of the Consuls, lead to a revocation of the privileges granted, at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4 inclusive, to the Tribune responsible, for a period of time at the discretion of the princeps senatus.

:2. The presiding officer may not alter, suspend or cancel the right of reporting at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4 inclusive, except under the conditions and terms of this Senatus Consultum.

D. If an agenda item concerns an item which is the presiding magistrate determines is of a confidential nature, he/she may:

:1. Declare the Senate in closed session for that item.

:2. Declare that the Senate seal is active and in effect for that item.
:Declaration that the Senate seal is active automatically invokes closed session for that item. Such a determination by the presiding officer to invoke closed session and/or Senate seal requires the consent of the princeps senatus. Only if the princeps senatus does not inform the presiding magistrate about his or her disagreement, the senate is deemed not to be in closed session and/or Senate seal is not invoked. Otherwise, the consent of the princeps senatus is always deemed granted.

:In respect of reporting the business of the Senate under the Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum, or under the right of reporting at VI.B.1 to V1.B.4, where the Senate seal is active in respect of an agenda item, the Tribunes shall report only “A confidential item was discussed”. Reporting such an agenda item using any other text, by way of description, explanation or other purpose, will constitute contempt of the Senate.

E. Debate is only to be conducted by posts to the Senate list. The requirements of IV.G.1 apply throughout the debate period. Each member of the Senate:

:1. Shall be able to post an opinion on any active agenda item that the presiding magistrate has put to the Senate to debate. Such a right to post shall be for a minimum of 96 hours and a maximum number of hours as defined in the agenda as presented to the Senate during the call to order, or as defined by the most recent amendment by the presiding magistrate to that maximum number of hours for debate.

:2. Shall not commence, or continue, debate on an item that has been withdrawn by the presiding magistrate.

:3. Shall be assumed to have abrogated his/her right to post an opinion as at VI.E.1 if he/she has failed to post at the expiry of the maximum number of hours for debate. Such a failure shall not be considered a waiver of the right to vote.

F. Any voting member of the Senate who will be unable to vote during a formal meeting of the Senate in session, may between the time and date of the call to convene the Senate up to the call to vote give his proxy vote to another voting member of the Senate. In order for such a grant of a proxy vote to be considered valid and legal the voting member of the Senate who will be unable to vote must:

:1. Send a post to the Senate list. This must be at least 24 hours before the time and date of the call to order, such time and date as specified in the call to convene. This post must state the reason he/she is unable to have access to the Senate list at the time and date of the voting stage, such time and date as specified in the call to convene.

:2. Specify whom his/her proxy is granted to. The person receiving the grant of his/her proxy vote must be a voting member of the Senate.

:3. Specify any directions on how he/she wishes his/her proxy vote used in respect of the agenda items known at the time of his posting at VI.F.1. This is discretionary and there is no obligation to specify any directions, but if none are specified the voting member of the Senate receiving the grant of the proxy vote is entitled to vote how he/she wishes using the proxy vote. If directions are included they must be followed and any deviation from them will render the vote on the agenda item(s) subject of the deviation invalid, and counted as an abstention.

:4. The presiding magistrate for the formal meeting of the Senate in session for which a grant of a proxy vote is made has no power to alter, impede, refuse or terminate such a grant in any way.

:5. If a member of the Senate will be absent and unable to attend any known or future meetings of the due to any reason for a known period of time, he/she may issue a standing grant of a proxy vote to one or more members of the Senate. The process to be followed for such a standing grant to be considered legal is:

::a. The process at VI.F.1 must be complied with.

::b. In the post to the Senate list the voting member of the Senate shall grant his/her proxy to either:

:::i. One voting member of the Senate for the whole period of absence.

:::ii. Two or more voting members of the Senate for specified time, giving the start and end dates of such a grant.

:::iii. Two or more voting members of the Senate with no specific start and end dates for the grant to each of them, but by ranking them in order of precedence, numbering them (1) onwards, (1) being the highest in ranking. If there is a formal meeting of the Senate in session during the period of the grant of the proxy, the presiding magistrate for that session shall post to the Senate list requiring all those on the absent voting member of the Senate’s proxy list, to identify themselves as present. He shall then assign the proxy to the highest ranked choice present.

::c. That absent voting member can specify directions, as at VI.F.3, for any known agenda for a formal meeting of the Senate in session that call to convene the Senate has been issued for prior to the posting of his/her standing proxy grant and which falls within the period of the grant at either VI.F.5.b.i to VI.F.5.b.iii inclusive. Any such directions issued, apply to all recipients of the grant of the proxy and they are bound as under VI.F.3 to follow such directions. Failure to do so shall be dealt with as at VI.F.3.

::d. If no such call at VI.F.5.iii has been issued then the recipient(s) of the grant of the proxy is entitled to vote how he/she wishes using the proxy vote.

==VII. VOTING PERIOD==

A. After the minimum of 96 hours of debate on an agenda has elapsed, that item is eligible to be put to the vote. The call to vote must specify all those items that, having first been subject to the minimum of 96 hours, are to be put to the vote in one vote period during that formal meeting of the Senate in session. Multiple vote periods, whether overlapping or consecutive, are illegal except as allowed for at XVI.P and XVI.Q.<ref>Article VII.A, disregard the part “except as allowed for at XVI.P and XVI.Q.”</ref>
B. The presiding magistrate may present none, any or all of the items on the initial agenda, or which were added to the agenda subsequently, to a vote. The agenda presented to the Senate cannot be altered once the voting period has commenced. If the vote required for an agenda item to be passed is not calculated on a simple majority, then the presiding magistrate shall indicate the majority required against that specific item contained in the agenda items submitted to the vote.

C. The presiding magistrate may at his/her discretion extend the period of voting, but may not shorten it, from the period specified in the call to convene. The period of voting may only be extended to a maximum of 96 hours. If the presiding officer issues no post to the Senate list indicating that he/she is extending the voting period, then the length of time of that period shall be the period specified in the call to convene the Senate. Once the voting period has commenced no alteration to its length, either shorter or greater, shall be considered legal and the period shall remain unchanged from that length of the voting period last posted to the Senate prior to the voting period commencing.

D. Voting shall only be conducted on the Senate list by means of voting members of the Senate posting to the Senate list. The subject line of that post must identify that it is a vote and may include which votingmember of the Senate it is from.

:3. An ABSTENTION is expressed with a voting member of the Senate’s stating in his/her post "ABSTINEO", "I ABSTAIN" or another clearly synonymous phrase of abstention in respect of an agenda item. Abstentions are not considered to be votes, and are not counted when calculating the number required for a majority. Abstentions do not diminish the number of Senators considered present when determining whether a quorum is achieved.

:4. VII.G.7.1 to VII.G.7.3 inclusive may include supporting comments to explain the reason why the voting member of the Senate cast his vote in manner he/she did. There shall be no limit on the text length of such comments.

:5. Except where otherwise stated, a Senatus consultum or Senatus consultum ultimum is passed and enacted when the number of affirmative votes (as described above) equals or exceeds the number required for a "simple majority".

:6. The voting period may begin at sunrise in Rome on the first day of the voting period and may end at sunset in Rome on the last day of the voting period, or may be set to sunrise and sunset in the time zone in which the presiding magistrate is resident.

:7. During the voting period members of the Senate must not continue discussion on the agenda items put to the vote. In cases of exceptional urgency a member of the Senate may request permission, by private email, and not on the Senate list, from the presiding magistrate to bring a new item to the attention of the Senate. This shall be treated as an item for information and discussion only and must not be included in the items to be voted upon.

:8. Any agenda item presented to the Senate for the vote must be in one of the following categories:

::a. Draft Senatus Consultum

::b. Draft Senatus Consultum Ultimum

:9. All positions and/or offices that the Senate is authorized by the legal code to appoint persons to must:

==VIII. RECESS AND CLOSE OF SESSION==

A. Once the voting period has elapsed the presiding magistrate shall calculate and post to the Senate list no later than 48 hours after the expiration of that period, the results of the vote by referring to the voting posts and calculating the results for each item voted upon.

B. After the official result of the vote is posted, the presiding magistrate must post a call to close within 24 hours of that official result being determined, and if he/she fails to do so then the session immediately that 24 hours period has expired shall automatically be deemed to be closed.

C. For the purposes of I.B.4 and II.B.6.e of the Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum the method of conferring with the Senate shall be delegated to the presiding magistrate of the formal meeting of the Senate in session where the item of a confidential nature in question is being/was discussed.

:1. The decision of the presiding magistrate as to what details of the discussion and/or comments and/or voting should be released to the citizens is deemed to be a decision of the whole Senate.

:2. Such a decision VIII.J.1 shall be binding on the Tribunes for the purposes of I.B.4 and II.B.6.e of the Lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum, as to what to report to the citizens concerning the item of a confidential nature in question.

D. The presiding magistrate may issue the call to recess a formal meeting of the Senate in session for a period of time between 24 hours and 144 hours. If after 144 hours have elapsed the presiding magistrate of that recessed session has not called the Senate to order and recommenced the session, then that session is deemed closed. The presiding magistrate may not issue the call to recess during the voting period.

E. The presiding magistrate may issue the call to close at any time, except during the voting period.

==IX. CONTEMPT OF THE SENATE==

Any member of the Senate or other magistrate who disregards the invocation of closed session conditions or disregards the invocation of the Senate seal, such disregard being determined by the president of the session or, ultimately, by the princeps senatus, or disrespects and insults the Senate, the presiding magistrate, the princeps senatus, another senator, or commits an act deemed in this senatus consultum to be contempt of the Senate, shall be automatically found in contempt of the Senate. In respect of a matter of contempt of the Senate, the presiding magistrate or the princeps senatus shall issue a warning publicly on the mailing list of the Senate, and if the individual does not amend his or her action that caused the contempt of the Senate, the presiding magistrate may suspend the speaking rights of the individual (Senate mailing list posting rights), may remove them from the session (removing them from the Senate mailing list), which disciplinary actions both constitute a suspension of the voting right of the individual). The length of these disciplinary actions shall be decided by the princeps senatus, and may not be shorter than 3 days and longer than 3 months. The contempt of the Senate may only be established with the expressed consent of the princeps senatus, but the decision of removing an individual from the session or the Senate mailing list may only be made by the presiding magistrate. The Senate may also declare an action to be contempt of the Senate, or may override declaration of the princeps senatus regarding an issue about contempt of the Senate in a senatus consultum.

==X. THE PRINCEPS SENATUS==

A. The princeps senatus must be the most respected and highest ranking censorial and consular patrician senator who holds the longest, continuous and uninterrupted record of membership of the Senate. When the censors select the princeps senatus during the lectio senatus, they may select someone who does not meet all these criteria if, and only if, they provide a justification for such a decision. Senatorial rank is determined by the ranking of the auctoritas of the highest office held by the senator. Within each rank group, the ones who held the office more than once are higher ranking. Among those who held the same office the same number of times, those held it earlier are higher ranking. Among senators of the same rank, older individuals are higher ranking.

B. The princeps senatus shall have the following honors, powers, limits and obligations.

:1. To be the final authority to determine if the procedures of this Senatus Consultum have been violated by any member of the Senate either in the manner of application of, or in the failure to comply with, such procedures, whether through negligence or a deliberate act.

:2. To be the final authority on what is acceptable conduct to be expected from members of the Senate, both during informal Senate discussion and formal meetings of the Senate in session.

:3. To be the final authority on determining the meaning of any part of this Senatus Consultum where such meaning is unclear to any member of the Senate, and/or to arbitrate in any dispute between members of the Senate over such meaning. The princeps senatus has the ultimate authority on approving, rejecting, or creating, a rule of session.

C. If the princeps senatus is unavailable, the princeps iuventutis shall exercise his or her duties. If the princeps iuventutis is not a senator, he or she shall be temporarily invited to the Senate mailing list and allowed to speak in the Senate, or to preside in session, when needed, but without the right to vote. If the princeps iuventutis is unavailable, the president of the session shall decide in all questions.

==XI. QUORUM==

A. The quorum for the Senate of Nova Roma is only required for formal meeting of the Senate in session.

B. The quorum is calculated and based on only voting members of the Senate.

C. The required quorum must be achieved at the time the call to order is posted.

D. If the quorum is not achieved then the call to order cannot be posted and no formal meeting of the Senate in session can legally be held. Any formal meeting of the Senate in session that is held where the quorum is not achieved is illegal and no Senatus consultum or Senatus consultum ultimum passed during such an illegal session shall have any legal force or validity.

E. A voting member of the Senate is deemed present at the time the call to order is posted if that member has not posted to the Senate list that he/she will be absent, using the process at VI.F.

F. Once the quorum is established as being present at the time the call to order is posted, no challenges by any member of the Senate to establish if it is present subsequently shall be legal or permitted. Such challenges if made shall be an extreme disruption to a formal meeting of the Senate in session, as defined at III.E.3.

G. Any member of the Senate present at the time the call to order is posted, by virtue of not having posted his/her absence at VI.F, may state that he/she is leaving the formal meeting of the Senate in session, but for the purposes of the quorum he/she is deemed to still be present during the remainder of the session conducted in his/her absence.

H. Any calculation of the results of the voting stage shall treat the vote of any member of the Senate leaving after the call order, as defined at XI.G, as an abstention vote as defined at VII.G.3.

I. The quorum required must be 2/3rds (two thirds) of the total number of voting members of the Senate, where fractions are rounded up to the next nearest whole number. For example if there are 22 voting members of the Senate, 2/3rds is 14.666 recurring. Therefore the quorum would be 15 voting members of the Senate, who would have to present immediately before the call to order.

J. Those voting members of the Senate who have identified themselves as absent under the process at VI.F will be counted as being present during a formal meeting of the Senate in session that occurs during that period of absence for the purposes of the calculation of the quorum if they have assigned the grant of a proxy vote under the process at VI.F. If they have not assigned a proxy vote then they will be counted as absent.

K. The presiding magistrate must make the calculation of whether the quorum has been achieved. The call to order must not be made until the calculation is made and the quorum established as being achieved as defined at XI.I. The presiding magistrate must immediately before the call to order post is made follow the steps below in consecutive order:

:1. Count the number of voting members of the Senate who have identified themselves as absent, under the process at VI.F.

:2. Calculate the quorum as under XI.I.

:3. Subtract the number at XI.K.1 from the total number of voting members of the Senate.

:4. If the result of the subtraction at XI.K.3 is greater than the quorum as at XI.I, then the quorum has been achieved and the call to order may be posted and the formal meeting of the Senate in session can proceed.

:5. If the result of the subtraction at XI.K.3 is less than the quorum as at XI.I, then the quorum has not been achieved and the call to order must not be posted and the formal meeting of the Senate in session cannot proceed.

L. Where the quorum is achieved and the call to order made, the presiding magistrate shall include in the call to order post the statement “The quorum is achieved”. The presiding magistrate must also include in the call to order post the calculations made at XI.K.1 to XI.K.3 inclusive.

M. Where the quorum is not achieved, the presiding magistrate shall post to the Senate list a post with a subject heading “Formal meeting of the Senate in session cancelled”. This post must include, within the body of the post, the statement “The quorum is not achieved”. The presiding magistrate shall also include in the body of the post the calculations made at XI.K.1 to XI.K.3 inclusive.

==XII. THE SENATE LIST==

A. The owner of the Senate mailing list, the internet version of the curia, shall be the legal owner of the mailing list. The owner owns it on behalf of Nova Roma and is obliged to obey the presiding magistrates of the Senate under penalty of law.

B. The moderators shall be the consuls and praetors. Moderators shall have the same admin rights as the owner except the deletion of the mailing list and modification of the archives.

==XIII. CALENDAR AND RELIGIOUS MATTERS==

No session of the Senate may be held without taking the auspices before with favorable result and without an opening and closing ceremony of the religio Romana; any senatus consultum enacted without this procedural step shall be invalid. The Senate follows the directions of the Collegium Pontificum on religious and calendar matters.

==XIV. ANNOTATION AND STYLE==

A. The use of (s) in this Senatus consultum indicates that the singular occurrence of the word may also be read as the plural of that word. Absence of such (s) shall not necessarily imply that the plural cannot be inferred.

B. Where not stated otherwise, as at XIV.C, the use of a combination of letters, Roman numerals, Arabic numerals, such as XXX.A.1.a.i, is a reference to a corresponding section of this Senatus consultum.

C. Similar types of combination at XIV.B can also be used to indicate a corresponding section of either the Constitution of Nova Roma or a named lex.

D. The use of a descriptive title to describe sections of this Senatus consultum is only to assist in providing a brief general description of the contents in that section. Such a title does not form part of the reference method described at XIV.B.

E. The use of italics is for ease of reference only and no extra meaning shall be construed from such use.

Relatio de officio comitiis administrandis constituendo (Nova Roma)

2026-02-21T14:35:13Z

Decimus Aurelius Ingeniarius: Updates

''A senatorial decree concerning the establishment of an office for administering the elections.''

I. The appointment or selection of election officials has had a varied history in Nova Roma. In the very early days, they formed part of the vigintisexviri. In recent years they have been manually selected by presiding magistrates, often last-minute. It has proven somewhat difficult to guarantee consistency in policy, election official performance, as well as introducing new citizens to the electoral process. Often the burden of training has consistently fallen to citizens already incumbered. There is potential for a better managed process and an unbiased management of our elections and provide a more lucrative agency specializing in election administration.

II. With this decree, the senate hereby creates a new office, the Officium rerum comitialium (Office of electoral affairs). This office falls under the purview of the senate but is answerable to all magistrates who may call the various comitia (consules, praetores and tribuni plebes). Heading this office will be a senate-appointed commissioner, the Praepositus Rerum Comitialium (Head of electoral affairs), who will have the ultimate responsibility for carrying-out the function of the office. Only the senate may appoint or replace the praepositus rerum comitialium. The senate may also instigate new policy, via a senatus consultum, that the office must incorporate, citing this decree.

III. The primary objectives of the Officium rerum comitialium are as follows:

:A. Raise, train and sustain election officials; namely rogatores, diribitores, and custodes.

:B. Support and manage the voting infrastructure used in the various Nova Roma comitia.

:C. Support the maintenance of the official voting roles of the tribes and centuries.

:D. Provide support to magistrates through the deployment of election officials and subject matter experts.

:E. Provide education to citizens on the voting process.

IV. The first task of the Praepositus rerum comitialium is to publish a charter managing the policy, process and procedures of the office, the training it provides, and how the office is to achieve the objectives of article III. The first version of this charter is to be published and signed by the praepositus no later than the pr. Kal. Quint. (30 June). The charter is to be published to a new department page on the NR Wiki, which will also list details about the office. The praepositus may recruit any number of subject matter experts to the office to support him or her in forming the office and producing the charter. These office members are to be listed on the new department page in the NR Wiki. The senate stipulates the following minimum policy regulations that must be included in the charter:

:A. Concerning a chapter about recruiting or raising new election officials:

::i. Those seeking to apply as an election official apply directly to the office by a means determined by the office.

::ii. To apply, citizens must have held the cives optimo iure for at least 6 months, and be assiduus.

::iii. To apply, citizens must have uploaded a true, unaltered image, to their Album Civium profile and must sit a short video interview with the praepositus.

:B. Concerning a chapter about training election officials:

::i. Newly inducted election officials may only be appointed as an observator in the first instance, to watch and learn from a live vote counting process, the duration to be determined by the office but it must last at least one comitia session as a minimum.

::ii. All election officials are to be able to access standard operating procures, produced by the office, on the vote counting and reporting process, to be included in the charter either as a chapter or as an annex.

::iii. With the duration to be determined by the office, a citizen must first serve as an observator, before being permitted to serve as a diribitor, before being permitted to serve as a rogator, before being permitted to serve as a custos.

::iv. One prerequisite for an official to be promoted or appointed to custos is that the member must of also been elected as a magistrate previously and must have held the cives optimo iure for at least 4 years.

::v. One prerequisite for an official to be promoted or appointed to rogator is that the member must have held the cives optimo iure for at least 3 years.

::vi. All promotions or appointments to a higher tier of election official must have the consent of the member and the member must sit and pass a board chaired by the praepositus, including at least one other election official of the level the member is promoting to, and an optional external magistrate at the invite of the praepositus.

:C. Concerning a chapter about sustaining (managing) election officials:

::i. A role of eligible election officials and their type of office is to be published to the office Nova Roma Wiki page.

::ii. With sufficient numbers, as determined by the office, election officials are to designated into either a primary or reserve tier, whereby primary members are "on-call" to manage voting in any comitia that arises during their designated period while serving in this tier, the latter acts as a back-up should a primary member be unable to support a current comitia session.

::iii. The period of rotation in which an election official occupies the primary tier or reserve tier is to be, at a minimum one month and a maximum of one year, ultimately determined by the office.

Relatio de officio comitiis administrandis constituendo (Nova Roma)

2026-02-20T19:04:32Z

Decimus Aurelius Ingeniarius: Starting page

''A senatorial decree concerning the establishment of an office for administering the elections.''

I. The appointment or selection of election officials has had a varied history in Nova Roma. In the very early days, they formed part of the vigintisexviri. In recent years they have been manually selected by presiding magistrates, often last-minute. It has proven somewhat difficult to guarantee consistency in policy, election official performance, as well as introducing new citizens to the electoral process. Often the burden of training has consistently fallen to citizens already incumbered. There is potential for a better managed process and an unbiased management of our elections and provide a more lucrative agency specializing in election administration.

II. With this decree, the senate hereby creates a new office, the Officium rerum comitialium (Office of electoral affairs). This office falls under the purview of the senate but is answerable to all magistrates who may call the various comitia (consules, praetores and tribuni plebes). Heading this office will be a senate-appointed commissioner, the Praepositus Rerum Comitialium (Head of electoral affairs), who will have the ultimate responsibility for carrying-out the function of the office. Only the senate may appoint or replace the praepositus rerum comitialium. The senate may also instigate new policy, via a senatus consultum, that the office must incorporate, citing this decree.

III. The primary objectives of the Officium rerum comitialium are as follows:

:A. Raise, train and sustain election officials; namely rogatores, diribitores, and custodes.

:B. Support and manage the voting infrastructure used in the various Nova Roma comitia.

:C. Support the maintenance of the official voting roles of the tribes and centuries.

:D. Provide support to magistrates through the deployment of election officials and subject matter experts.

:E. Provide education to citizens on the voting process.

IV. The first task of the Praepositus rerum comitialium is to publish a charter managing the policy, process and procedures of the office, the training it provides, and how the office is to achieve the objectives of article III. The first version of this charter is to be published and signed by the praepositus no later than the pr. Kal. Quint. (30 June). The charter is to be published to a new department page on the NR Wiki, which will also list details about the office. The praepositus may recruit any number of subject matter experts to the office to support him or her in forming the office and producing the charter. These office members are to be listed on the new department page in the NR Wiki. The senate stipulates the following minimum policy regulations that must be included in the charter:

:A. Concerning the chapter about recruiting or raising new election officials:

::i. Those seeking to apply as an election official apply directly to the office by a means determined by the office.

::ii. To apply, citizens must have held the cives optimo iure for at least 6 months, and be assiduus.

::iii. To apply, citizens must have uploaded a true, unaltered image, to their Album Civium profile and must sit a short video interview with the praepositus.

:B. Concerning the chapter about training election officials:

::i. Newly inducted election officials may only be appointed as an observer in the first instance, to watch and learn from a live vote counting process, the duration to be determined by the office but it must last at least one comitia session as a minimum.

::ii. All election officials are to be able to access standard operating procures, produced by the office, on the vote counting and reporting process, to be included in the charter either as a chapter or as an annex.

::iii. With the duration to be determined by the office, a citizen must first serve as an observer, before being permitted to serve as a diribitor, before being permitted to serve as a rogator, before being permitted to serve as a custos.

:C. Concerning the chapter about sustaining (managing) election officials:

::i. A role of eligible election officials and their type of office is to be published to the office Nova Roma Wiki page.

::ii. With sufficient numbers, as determined by the office, election officials are to designated into either a primary or reserve tier, whereby primary members are "on-call" to manage voting in any comitia that arises during their designated period while serving in this tier, the latter acts as a back-up should a primary member be unable to support a current comitia session.

::iii. The period of rotation in which an election official occupies the primary tier or reserve tier is to be, at a minimum one month and a maximum of one year, ultimately determined by the office.

::iv. Election officials are awarded census points according to law, provided they have served in at last one comitia session in any 12-month period.

::v. Election officials can only be awarded census points once in any 12-month period, even if they serve as a different type of election official across multiple comitia.

::vi. The Nova Roman Wiki page for the office must keep a complete record of all comitia that any given election official has served in, and in what capacity.

:D. Concerning the chapter about voting infrastructure:

::i. The current approved voting infrastructure is a Gmail service, to be used for all future comitia, that accepts either email votes from citizens or a Google form or forms for citizens to lodge their votes.

::ii. New voting infrastructure proposed by the office must be approved by the praepositus and then submitted as a formal request to the senate for approval via senatus consultum.

::iii. The voting infrastructure must be able to keep voting records for a minimum of five years.

::iv. The voting infrastructure must be able to be accessed and audited by the Officium rei informaticae.

:E. Concerning the chapter about support and maintenance of the official voting roles of the tribes and centuries:

::i. The office is to take on management of the live roles of tribes and centuries of Nova Roma, but are not permitted to edit those roles.

::ii. The office must be able to enable constant access to the roles by the Officum Censorium who are the only ones permitted to edit the roles.

::iii. The rogator duties must specify procedures (not necessarily in this chapter) to have them cross verify live voter roles with the Album Civium and work with the Officum Censorium on any identified discrepancies.

:F. Concerning the chapter about providing support to magistrates:

::ii. Magistrates are no longer required to specify the election officials in any pronouncement of a comitia.

::iii. Should there be permitted variations as to the senate-approved way voting or votes are submitted, the options should be presented to any hosting magistrate for them to decide.

:G. Concerning the chapter about provide education to citizens on the voting process:

These are referred to generally as [[Municipalities (Nova Roma)|municipalities]] (in Latin: ''civitas oppidana, res publica oppidana'', ''municipalitas''). Different types and sizes of municipalities will go by different names. Although citizens can always meet casually without a formal municipal construct, local groups must meet stringent and authentic measures to be formally recognized as a ''municipalitas'' to gain the privileges and recognition associated with such groups.

*A formal constitution (''constitutio'') is required to be submitted to the [[Law Revision Committee of Classicists and Latinists]] before any magistrate can establish the municipality.

However, those paying the taxes receive various privileges, including the right to be elected or appointed into offices and priesthoods, enhanced voting rights, access to services from Nova Roma that are not offered to non-paying members. Nova Roma optional taxes are very low. The taxes are made up of two components; the ''tributum capitis'' ($9 USD) and the ''tributum militare'' ($6 USD). For the standard citizen this equates to a $15USD payment in order to maintain your rank and status. You are invited to donate any higher amount over this minimum, as much as you intend to give to our cause ($50USD per citizen would be ideal). At certain higher donation thresholds, you will gain prestige and further Roman benefits as a ''treasury tribune equestrian'' ($45USD) or an ''eques equo privato'' ($135USD).
| style="text-align:left; font-size:10pt;" | If you hold a membership in a recognized [[Roman Reenactment Army of Nova Roma|Nova Roman legionary reenactment group]], as a civilian or military reenactor, then the required tax only requires the tributum capitis ($9 USD).

==Introduction==

===Welcome to the Employment and Opportunities Office (EOO) of the Res publica===

An excellent way to absorb the ''[[Nova Romanitas|Romanitas]]'' and education about ancient Rome that Nova Roma provides is to volunteer in our society! The best way to learn is by "doing". Nova Roma does not just "happen to you" - you need to actively participate and interact with fellow citizens. The various voluntary employment and interactive opportunities are accessible to all citizens globally and can boost your understanding of Nova Roma and ancient Roman governance and civic life.

Whether you are a new citizen looking to learn about Nova Roman society or a long-time citizen hoping to grow your status and Roman career, there is a wide variety of opportunities suitable for all citizens.

This office was established under [[Edicta_MMDCCLXXVIII#Edictum_Praetorium_de_Officio_Implicationis_et_Opportunitatis_Condendo|Edictum Praetorium de Officio Implicationis et Opportunitatis Condendo]]. The role of this office is to collate, manage and advertise all available employment positions and engagement opportunities across Nova Roma, for all Nova Roman citizens. The office will work with all magistrates and officials to list positions and appointments that citizens can volunteer for and support the Nova Roman society.

*Priesthood applicants have real time to devote toward advancing the worship of their chosen deity both within Nova Roma and in the outside world. This involves being available for public correspondence concerning the worship of the God or Goddess they serve, assisting others in their personal worship, working to reconstruct rites, prayers and other religious liturgy related to their deity, being available for public rites sponsored by Nova Roma, and ideally, organizing public rites/temples on their own as well.

Relatio de exemptione temporaria a relatione rationum publicarum hoc anno (Nova Roma)

2026-02-19T21:34:53Z

Decimus Aurelius Ingeniarius: starting page.

''A senatorial decree concerning a temporary exemption from the reporting of public accounts this year.''

I. This decree excuses the current curator aerarii from presenting the annual report as required by the senatus consultum de relatione rationum publicarum. This only applies for this year. The senatus consultum de relatione rationum publicarum otherwise remains in force.

II. This exemption is granted noting:

:A. the basic report of accounts provided under the first agenda item of the last senate session in January of this year;

:B. the limited access the current curator aerarii has to Nova Roma's live accounts, as so reported to the consuls; and

:C. the pending change of curator aerarii scheduled to be proposed this year.

III. Should a new curator aerarii be appointed, the new incumbent is to produce a preliminary report by Kal. Sext. (1 August) with the following elements:

:A. specifying the amounts of all accounts;

:B. confirming their physical access, as well as the physical access of all quaestores aerarii, as required by law;

:C. Identifying all legislation that effects the scope of their role and those that work in the;

:D. Providing account details of all accounts to enable citizens to pay into those accounts; and

:E. A list of all pages the curator should monitor and help manage on the NR Wiki, including but not limited to "Aerarium Publicum (Nova Roma)", "Curator aerarii (Nova Roma)", and "Current tax rates".

Decimus Aurelius Ingeniarius: moved Relatio consultum de curatore aerarii creando (Nova Roma) to Relatio de curatore aerarii creando (Nova Roma): Fixing link.

''A senatorial decree concerning the appointment of a curator of the treasury.''

I. Senator and imperator Publius Porcius Licinus has served as curator aerarii for many years. To support the future interests of P. Porcius and allow a distribution of corporate knowledge across Nova Roma, the senate is honorably releasing P. Porcius from the position of curator aerarii. The senate and the people of Nova Roma thank him for his loyal service.

II. The senate hereby appoints senator Publius Aurelius Barbatus as the new curator aerarii.

III. An exchange and handover period of three (3) nundinae is set from the enactment of this decree to enable transition of ownership of accounts and support other administration necessary for the handover of this role.

Rogatio Aurelia de ampliatione et exercitio iuris edicendi (Nova Roma)

2026-02-19T20:48:13Z

Decimus Aurelius Ingeniarius: Establishing

''The Aurelian law concerning the expansion and exercise of the right of issuing edicts''

I. It has become apparent that certain minor officers, outside the offices of the magistratus ordinarii, have a need for a mechanism to declare official actions or appointments within their departments. As it currently stands, the lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda (the constitution) only specifies very specific officers to hold the ius edicendi, the right to issue edicta. Those are:

:A. The censores, consules, praetores, aediles and tribuni plebi of the magistratus ordinarii (article IV.A.);

:B. The magistratus extraordinarii (article IV.B.);

:B. The praefectus rei publicae administrandae (article IV.A.6.d.); and

:C. Governors (article III.A.1 and article V.C.2)

II. Nova Roma is unique in that we require the ius edicendi to appoint apparitores and other formal appointments across Nova Roma. There is a long history of magistrates using the ius edicendi to appoint citizens to a myriad of roles, as stipulated in the lex Vedia apparitoria. This becomes poignant as we also use the respective edicta as the initiation and record for the application of census points as well as formally marking performance in yearly apparitor evaluations. As a predominately digital society, we also need a way for all magistrates and key officers to formally record their decision making within their scope of work or department. Edicta provide traceability and transparency of work. Nova Roma has already taken the liberty for various magistrates to post edicta beyond what was done in ancient Rome, to the benefit of our society. This lex capitalizes on this precedence to provide clarity to government and the understanding of all government operations.

III. This lex defines additional officers and appointments who are now granted the ius edicendi, how the ius edicendi is granted, and clarifies how the ius intercessione applies in these new cases. The following appointments are hereby granted the ius edicendi, enabling them to appoint apparitores, call the various comitia if already permitted under law, as well as to mark decisions within their remit as defined by law:

:A. Curator rei informaticae (as defined under article I.C.6 of the lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda)

:B. Curator aerarii (as defined under article I.C.6 of the lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda)

:C. Curio Maximus (as defined under article III of the lex Arria de veteribus tribubus et curiis)

:D. Vigintisexviri (as defined under article IV.A.8 of the lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda and the lex Lucilia de vigintiviris)

:E. Tribuni militum comitiati (as defined under the lex Lucilia de tribunis militum comitiatis)

:F. State commissioners, that are not appointed to lead military institutions or departments (as defined under article IV.D. of the lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda)

IV. The issue of any edicta must comply with the lex Vedia de ratione edictorum, lex Arria de edictis, lex Cornelia de linguis publicis, and any senatus consulta or edicta applicable to the posting of edicta.

V. The use of ius intercessionis against actions announced under edictum must comply with the order of precedence as specified in the lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda, and conditions set by the lex Salvia de intercessione and any senatus consulta or edicta applicable to the use of intercessio. To clarify who may cast intercessio against other officers defined in this lex:

:A. Curator rei informaticae only holds the ius intercessionis against the quattuorviri rerum curandarum and the tribuni militum comitiati only in matters pertaining to their actions attributed to the digital infrastructure of Nova Roma. As the curator rei informaticae is a senate appointment, no other magsitrates or officers can use the ius intercessionis against the curator rei informaticae.

:B. Curator aerarii only holds the ius intercessionis against the tresviri monetales only in matters pertaining to their actions attributed to the management or storage of Nova Roma funds and currency. As the curator aerarii is a senate appointment, no other magsitrates or officers can use the ius intercessionis against the curator aerarii.

:C. Curio Maximus does not hold any powers of the ius intercessionis. The Collegium Pontificum remains the only authority able to overrule the curio maximus.

:D. Vigintisexviri only hold the ius intercessionis against their fellow magistrates within their sub-elected offices (i.e. the triumviri capitales only possess the ius intercessionis against another of the triumviri capitales). The following conditions apply to the use of the ius intercessionis against the Vigintisexviri:

::i. Only the consuls and praetors may use the ius intercessionis against the decemviri stlitibus iudicandis for actions permitted under law.

::ii. All officers of the magistratus ordinarii and magistratus extraordinarii may use the ius intercessionis against the triumviri capitales.

::iii. The quattuorviri rerum curandarum are subject to the ius intercessionis of all officers of the magistratus ordinarii and magistratus extraordinarii, including the curator rei informaticae.

::iv. The tresviri monetales are subject to the ius intercessionis of all officers of the magistratus ordinarii and magistratus extraordinarii, including the curator aerarii.

:E. The tribuni militum comitiati only hold the ius intercessionis against their fellow tribuni militum comitiati. Only the consuls and praetors may use the ius intercessionis against tribuni militum comitiati.

:F. State commissioners, not already defined elsewhere, do not hold any powers of the ius intercessionis. If senate appointed, no other magsitrates or officers can use the ius intercessionis against the appointment. If created by a magistrate, those magistrates and any higher authority are assumed to hold powers of the ius intercessionis against this appointment.

V. Acknowledging the historical exception of the lex Lucilia de vigintiviris, there shall be no other means to grant the ius edicendi under law. Should the people deem a variation on which officers and appointments are granted the ius edicendi, it shall be done so by modifying or repealing this lex.

Decimus Aurelius Ingeniarius: final draft

''A senatorial decree concerning the permanent system of provincial evaluation''

I. In the latter part of the year {{2020}} the senate instituted the first comprehensive legislation on provincial evaluations and a system of assessment for the ongoing efficacy of provincial administration. Both leading up to this original legislation, and certainly many times after, new legislation has either duplicated, altered or added to the foundational provincial evaluation system. Whether incidentally or with intent, the increasing list of decrees, as well as the long list of demands for irregular reporting has created a legal quagmire. This burden is subsequently shouldered by the governors and has become increasingly difficult to deduce current requirements with efficiency.

II. This decree intends to redefine all provincial evaluation requirements into a single and perpetual decree. With this senatus consultum, all past senatus consulta pertaining to provincial reporting and provincial evaluations are considered lapsed an no longer in effect. It is important to stipulate that, by the enactment of this decree, all past requirements and assessments of provinces, since the passing of the senatus consultum de provinciis ordinandis of the {{Oct 7}} {{2020}} (7 Oct 2020), are considered effective, on record and active, up to their inclusion or modification in this decree. All past evaluations to date remain extant.

III. Drawing from the now lapsed senatus consultum de provinciis ordinandis, senatus consultum de relatione provinciali requirenda, and senatus consultum de relationibus praesidum provinciarum, the senate intends to motivate citizens globally with clear objectives to gain recognition as a province of Nova Roma. In this spirit, the senate has taken steps to maintain a more consistent provincial system by dissolving those provinces which don't satisfy set criteria for provincial status. However, provinces can be created (or restablished) at any time in the future if the provincial community produces the required level of activity.

IV. '''Defining a province'''. As a standard definition, the "provincia" is considered a country-level administrative unit of Nova Roma based on an active and functioning community of Nova Roman citizens of that country. A province shall serve as the organized collectivity of citizens within a macronational country. However, there are two exceptions or variations:

:A. Given the vast variation in size that exists across countries, the senate should always consider the total area, ease of travel across the country in question, as well as the existing density of citizens. It may be warranted to reduce the provincial administrative borders to a smaller size, ideally following internal state boarders or regional boundaries.

:B. More than one macronational country may make up a province if they share the same language and cultural characteristics, or the Nova Roman communities in these countries are closely cooperating with each other.

V. '''Conditions required for a province.''' The establishment, or reestablishment of a province can only be achieved by the demonstration on set standards. A province is the demonstration of active community life for a considerable time which satisfies the senate that a noteworthy Nova Roman community exists in any given country or sub region. A Nova Roman community within a country or territory may be defined as a province if:

:A. there are at least 15 Nova Roman citizens in the country (or territory) to become a province,

:B there are at least one or more functioning (minimum 15 messages or posts per month, by at least 5 different citizens) online communication forums with 15 registered/subscribed resident participants,

:C there are at least two gatherings of five (5) resident Nova Roman citizens in a calendar year,

:D. there is at least one officially recognized partnership established under law between Nova Roma and a Roman (or Roman themed or ancient) reenactment or living-history group in the region, and

:E. there is at least one local candidate for governor.

VI. '''Establishing a province.''' The senate remains the only authority that can establish a province. A Nova Roman community, who meets the above conditions, is to select a representative to forward a petition for a province to the Officium Consulare. The petition is to include the formal request and evidence of the country or territory meeting the set requirements. The Officium Consulare or the senate is forbidden to accept any petition that does not satisfy the requirements. The senate may refuse petitions but any such refusal must contain a detailed justification and recommendations to achieve provincial status. The consuls are obligated to bring petitions before the senate for consideration if all requirements are met.

VII. '''Provincial reporting.''' Provinces are evaluated on a 12-month cycle, from Kal. Feb. (1 February) to the following Kal. Feb. (1 February) each year. Governors are responsible for producing a provincial report to the Officium Consulare no later than Kal. Mar. (1 March) each year for the most recent reporting period. Reports are considered public and should be accessible by all citizens after being submitted. As they are public, no personal identifying information (PII) is to be included in the report. The report is to primarily focus on how the province meets the ongoing requirements as at article V, but with the following additions:

:A. Complimentary to article V.A., the report is to include the number of active and total citizens. The governor may engage the Officium Censorium to supplement this information.

:B. Complimentary to article V.B., the report is to include the web address of the main internet forum of the province, and any additional provincial forums accessible online. Concerning the reporting of activity in these forums, the information should include:

::i. Monthly average number of messages in the main provincial forum. If there is more than one provincial forum, the number of messages can be added up for the purpose of the report, but the amounts shall be given separately, as well.

::ii. Average number of Nova Roman citizens posting per month. If there are more than one provincial forum, the average of the number of Nova Roman citizens who post per month can be added up for the purpose of the report, but the amounts shall be given separately, as well.

::iii. Total number of members (citizens and peregrini combined) in the provincial forum. If there are more than one provincial forum, the number of members can be added up for the purpose of the report, but the amounts shall be given separately, as well.

:C. Complimentary to article V.C., the report is to include the number of those real life gatherings in the reported period in which at least five citizens of the province participated. Additional information about the type of event and any information about those citizens who attended are welcome, for auditing purposes. Any other general events held should also be reported on.

:D. Complimentary to article V.D., the report is to include information about the reenactment groups that officially cooperate with the province (friend, allied, or fully Nova Roman legions; allied or fully Nova Roman gladiatorial groups). Other type of partnerships should be listed here, as well.

:E. Complimentary to article V.E., the report is to include the names of all willing candidates for the governorship. A brief summary as to their suitability and experience should also be included.

:F. As an optional inclusion, the report may specify a request or petition for exemption from article V.C. for any given period. This can be justified if there was a curfew, natural disaster or a similar restrictive period that impacted the province for a noteworthy period of time.

:G. As an optional inclusion, the report may add any additional information the governor deems necessary, as well as recommendation future policies to the senate, the opinion of the citizens, requests, complaints and everything that the provincial citizens or the provincial government would wish to communicate to the senate. These elements will not serve as a basis for any annual evaluation.

:H. The report may take on any style or layout, provided English is used in the report and it is legible by the Officium Consulare and senate. Acceptable format include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF or simple text files.

VIII. '''Evaluating a province.''' Reports are accepted and reviewed by the Officium Consulare. They are processed and published by necessary parties including the Officum rei Informaticae to enact the reporting outcomes. A vote by the senate is not required to process provincial evaluations. Where the consuls have doubts as to the content of a provincial report, they may take a provincial report to the senate for voting. The consuls may issue an edict, or the senate may issue a senatus consultum, to direct any one quaestor to undertake an investigation of a province to determine the accuracy of any submitted report. Investigations may last no longer than one month. Governors must comply with all requests for additional information and any provincial forums must be accessible by the quaestor or any senator who wants to check the veracity of the reported data. The following automatic outcomes, based on reporting, are as follows:

:A. If a province doesn't meet any of the requirements at article V., the status of the province shall be marked as "abandoned". A province which satisfies only article V.A. shall also be marked as "abandoned". If a province does satisfy article V.A, it must also satisfy article V.B. at the same time, otherwise it shall be classified as "abandoned".

:B. Commensurate with article VIII.A., if a province doesn't meet all the requirements at article V., its status shall be marked as "unsatisfactory". However, if the province failed to satisfy only article V.B., while there were more than two gatherings of at least 5 citizens in that year in the province as per article V.C., this failure shall be ignored.

:C. If a province meets all the requirements at article V., it shall be marked as "active".

:D. If a province significantly exceeds all the requirements at article V., or if it exceeds only the requirements at article V.A., C, and D. but by 300%, it shall be marked as "excellent". Significantly exceeding the requirements is understood the following way:

::i. (V.A.) it has at least 20 citizens; (V.B.) an online forum with at least 20 messages per month, by 5 different citizens, with 20 resident participants; (V.C.) at least three gatherings of five resident citizens in a year; (V.D) partnerships with at least two Roman reenactment groups; and (V.E) at least two candidates for governor;

::ii. or (V.A) it has at least 45 citizens; (V.C) at least six gatherings of five resident citizens in a year; (V.D.) partnerships with at least two Roman reenactment groups.

:E. If the submitted report fails to adequately answer any of the elements at article V., those missed points in the evaluation of the province shall be considered as "zero" or "none". If there is no report submitted at all, the evaluation will be considered as if all answers were "zero" or "none", thus resulting in an a classification of "abandoned" for that period.

IX. '''Province Inactivity'''. Provinces which do not meet standards over the set periods are automatically dissolved. There shall be, however, no impediment for the local citizens to petition for the re-establishment of the province, or for the senate to incorporate this dissolved territory into another existing province. In time of catastrophes or incapacitating emergencies (e.g. a national or international catastrophe spanning many months, quarantine, pandemic, war) within a province or in many provinces, the senate may depart from the usual requirements and consequences of the evaluation described in this article, for the afflicted provinces. In order to do it validly, the senate must issue a senatus consultum, invoking this article, with a detailed reasoning about why it chose not to adhere to the requirements for evaluation, what the waived or simplified article V. requirements are, or what the new temporary evaluation rules are. Reporting and evaluation shall still be conducted, but under the temporary measures. These temporary evaluation rules expire immediately after the evaluation. The conditions for a province to be dissolved are as follows:

:A. A province which is evaluated as "abandoned" for two consecutive years, shall be, at the second time of receiving this mark, automatically dissolved without the need of any further decision by the senate. This dissolution is effective from the due date of Kal. Mar (1 March), irrespective of processing time, and has the full force of law and it cannot be overridden. This severe measure is intended as a motivating tool for the members of every Nova Roman province that they should maintain a minimum activity in order that their province can exist. The loss of a province, just like in ancient Roman times, shall be the real consequence of failing to maintain the functions of the state and society. It symbolizes the loss of the ancient Roman provinces in times of attack or evacuation of the Roman armies and civic institutions. This shall not be considered a dissolution of the province by the senate, but it shall be considered a loss of this province due to abandonment or functional failure: a natural (factual, "historical") cause of loss.

:B. A province which is evaluated exclusively and only as "unsatisfactory" or "abandoned" variously within five consecutive years, shall be, at the fifth time of receiving either of these mark during these five consecutive years, shall be treated in the same way as described in article IX.A.

X. '''Effects of this decree.''' This decree does not affect, or intend to affect, the appointment or removal of governors by the senate. Although this decree automates reporting, processing and assessment without direct senate intervention, it does not prohibit the senate from discussing and presenting provincial reports or assessment outcomes. For example, the senate may pass ad hoc exceptions or provide temporary easements as per article IX. It also does not restrict any subsequent legislation that might separately aid or bolster provincial performance. This decree does not prohibit the senate from changing the requirements for provincial reporting and assessment in the future, but it does express the intent that this decree should be repealed and replaced, not added to or modified.

A province shall serve as the organized collectivity of citizens within a macronational country. However, there are two exceptions or variations:

:A. Given the vast variation in size that exists across countries, the senate should always consider the total area, ease of travel across the country in question, as well as the existing density of citizens. It may be warranted to reduce the provincial administrative borders to a smaller size, ideally following internal state boarders or regional boundaries.

:B. More than one macronational country may make up a province if they share the same language and cultural characteristics, or the Nova Roman communities in these countries are closely cooperating with each other.

V. '''Conditions required for a province.''' The establishment, or reestablishment of a province can only be achieved by the demonstration on set standards. A province is the demonstration of active community life for a considerable time which satisfies the senate that a noteworthy Nova Roman community exists in any given country or sub region. A Nova Roman community within a country or territory may be defined as a province if:

:A. there are at least 15 Nova Roman citizens in the country (or territory) to become a province,

:B there are at least one or more functioning (minimum 15 messages or posts per month, by at least 5 different citizens) online communication forums with 15 registered/subscribed resident participants,

:C there are at least two gatherings of 5 resident Nova Roman citizens in a calendar year,

:D. there is at least one officially recognized partnership established under law between Nova Roma and a Roman (or Roman themed or ancient) reenactment or living-history group in the region, and

:E. there is at least one local candidate for governor.

VI. '''Establishing a province.''' The senate remains the only authority that can establish a province. A Nova Roman community, who meets the above conditions, is to select a representative to forward a petition for a province to the office of the consuls. The petition is to include the formal request and evidence of the country or territory meeting the set requirements. The senate is forbidden to accept any petition that does not satisfy the requirements. The senate may refuse petitions but any such refusal must contain a detailed justification and recommendations to achieve provincial status.

VII. '''Provincial reporting.''' Provinces are evaluated on a 12-month cycle, from Kal. Feb. (1 February) to the following Kal. Feb. (1 February) each year. Governors are responsible for producing a provincial report to the Officium Consulare no later than Kal. Mar. (1 March) each year.

III. The governors' provincial report must be in the following format and they must report the following data:

A. Obligatory items in the review:

1. Number of current Nova Roman citizens in the province.

2. Web addresses of the main internet forum of the province, and all additional provincial forums that are public.

2.1. Monthly average number of messages in the main provincial forum. If there are more than one provincial forum, the number of messages can be added up for the purpose of the report, but the amounts shall be given separately, as well.

2.2. Average number of Nova Roman citizens posting per month. If there are more than one provincial forum, the average of the number of Nova Roman citizens who post per month can be added up for the purpose of the report, but the amounts shall be given separately, as well.

2.3. Total number of members (citizens and peregrini combined) in the provincial forum. If there are more than one provincial forum, the number of members can be added up for the purpose of the report, but the amounts shall be given separately, as well.

3. Number of those real life gatherings in the reported period in which at least 5 citizens of the province participated.

4. Reenactment groups that officially cooperate with the province (friend, allied, or fully Nova Roman legions; allied or fully Nova Roman gladiatorial groups). Other type of partnerships should be listed here, as well.

5. Names of all candidates for the governorship.

B. Optional items in the review:

1. If in the areas of the province of the governor there was a curfew or a similar very restrictive and extended period ban on community meetings, the governor may ask a waiver from taking provincial meetings as a factor and part of the evaluation. The governors should petition this waiver as the 6th item in their report.

2. After the previous items have been discussed, the governor is free to add his personal style report in any format he deems necessary.

IV. The report shall be honest and true to the facts. The calculation of forum statistical averages, if it is not possible in a timely manner via an automated tool that the forum offers to the admin (for example Facebook groups and mailing lists can show monthly statistics as part of its free and easily tools), should be calculated from the data of the third, sixth, ninth and twelfth month of the reported period. The governor should make accessible the provincial forums for any senator who wants to check the veracity of the reported data.

V. If the report misses to answer any of the 5 questions at III.A.1-5, in those points the evaluation of the province should be made as if the missing answers were "zero" or "none" even if it is public knowledge that it is not the real answer. If there is no report, the evaluation should be made as if all answers were "zero" or "none". The negligence of the governor should be reflected by the negative evaluation of the province, and should serve as a lesson for all provincial citizens so they come up with another, better candidate for governor.

VI. The report should contain all events and activities by the province, and any additional information the governor deems necessary, as well as recommendation future policies to the senate, the opinion of the citizens, requests, complaints and everything that the provincial citizens or the provincial government would wish to communicate to the senate. These will not serve as a basis for the evaluation.

VIII. '''Evaluating a province.'''

:A. If a province doesn't meet any of the requirements at II.B.1-5., the status of the province shall be marked as "abandoned". A province which satisfies only requirement II.B.1 shall also be marked as "abandoned".

:B. If a province doesn't meet all the requirements at II.B.1-5., its status shall be marked as "unsatisfactory". However, if the province failed to satisfy only II.B.2., while there were more than two gatherings of at least 5 citizens in that year in the province, this failure shall be ignored. If a province satisfies only II.B.1, it shall also satisfy II.B.2 at the same time, otherwise it shall be classified as "abandoned".

:C. If a province meets all the requirements at II.B.1-5., it shall be marked as "active".

:D. If a province significantly exceeds all the requirements at II.B.1-5., or if it exceeds only the requirements at II.B.1., 3., and 4. but by 300%, it shall be marked as "excellent". Significantly exceeding the requirements is understood the following way:

::i. (1) it has at least 20 citizens, (2) an online forum with 20 messages per month, by 5 different citizens, with 20 resident participants, (3) three gatherings of 5 resident citizens in a year, (4) partnerships with two Roman reenactment groups, and (5) two candidates for governor;

::ii. or (1) it has at least 45 citizens, (3) six gatherings of 5 resident citizens in a year, (4) partnerships with two Roman reenactment groups.

This decree does not effect, or intend to effect, the appointment or removal of governors by the senate. Even though this decree automates reporting, processing and assessment without direct senate intervention, it does not prohibit the senate from discussing and presenting provincial reports or assessment outcomes. For example, the senate may pass ad hoc exceptions or provide temporary easements. It also does not restrict any subsequent legislation considered that might separately aid or bolster provincial performance. This decree does not prohibit the senate from changing the requirements for provincial reporting and assessment in the future but it does express the intent that this decree should be repealed and replaced, not added to or modified.

''The Aurelian Law concerning the right of reports to the Senate.''

I. The lex Moravia de renuntiatione senatus actorum has stood for many years as a mandatory direction to the tribunes to enforce a reporting of senate proceedings.

II. Although the tribunes should always have this right, it should not be a mandatory requirement. The practice in recent years has seen the presiding magistrates of the senate also present the outcomes and final report of a session under a legal obligation. Having two lots of reporting, often historically stating the same thing, is unnecessary and confusing to citizens. This lex is intended to be an amendment lex only and seeks to remove the mandatory language from the lex Moravia.

III. In article I.A. of the lex Moravia, the word "shall' is to be replaced with "may".

IV. In article II.A. of the lex Moravia, the word "shall' is to be replaced with "may".

''A senatorial decree concerning the abolition of the Office of Civil Assistance of Nova Roma.''

I. Established under the Senatus consultum de adiumento civibus nostris Sarmaticis, enacted on a.d. III Kal. Mar. Sex. Lucilio (II) A. Tullia (II) cos. (27 Feb, 2022), the Civilian Aid and Rescue Office of Nova Roma (Officium Auxilii Civilis Novae Romae) was created to support the citizens affected by the ongoing conflict in Provincia Sarmatia. This office has since fallen into disuse and the appointed praefectus has left the office.

II. Despite ongoing advertisement to the office and noting the significant duration of elapsed time, the ongoing establishment of this office is no longer tenable. As such, the senate hereby dissolves the office and the praefectus position. The senate or other magistrates may consider new concepts in the future.

''A senatorial decree concerning the repeal of public assemblies.''

I. Established under the senatus consultum de conventibus publicis, enacted on {{Oct 7}} {{2025}} (7 Oct, 2025), the decree established a new appointment and a responsibility for the annual creation of an official calendar of events. Appointed to this role, as praeco editor Kalendarii Diurnalis, was censor C. Petronius Stephanus Turpilianus.

II. It came to light in the most recent senate session, that C. Petronius was not consulted for the role and subsequently does not have availability to carry out the required tasking. Taking into consideration the absence of an appointed official for the role, this decree hereby rescinds the senatus consultum de conventibus publicis. In addition to the lack of available appointment, the previous decree also issued advice to commence a large scale project of the development of a mobile application, among other "modern tools" without defining a scope, resources, requirements, budget, or schedule. As such, this leaves Nova Roma at considerable risk and it should be withdrawn immediately until better defined.
