Right of Emigration

A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.


Category: Human Rights


Strength: Significant


Proposed by: Abacathea Description: Committed to improving the world, one resolution at a time,

Cognizant of the fact that some nations may recognize their citizens as property of that nation and therefore deny them the right to leave said nation,

Determining this to be a gross abuse of sapient rights and seeking to resolve this issue,

Hereby,

Mandates that no government may prevent the emigration of individuals from their nation,

Declares that individuals may specifically be exempted from the aforementioned mandate if:
(a) They are subject to a medically legitimate and necessary quarantine,
(b) They are awaiting trial, undergoing legal proceedings, or if they are carrying out a sentence as a result of such legal proceedings,
(c) They have a warrant existing for their arrest,
(d) The recipient nation or the nation of origin having probable cause to believe that the individual is traveling for the purpose of committing a crime,
(e) The individuals concerned are non-emancipated minors traveling without the consent of a legal guardian,
(f) They are legitimately determined to be mentally unable to make the decision to travel of their own accord,

Clarifying that nothing in this resolution prevents member nations from setting requirements for entry and residency within their borders.

Against.

Sorry Aba.

For. I'm also keen on helping out Osiran citizens when they submit things to the WA. So until the againsts are more numerous than the fors, my in game vote will be for.

This has been examined and poked and prodded by me about eighty different ways to Sunday. Almost every issue within the text has been resolved to my liking, and yet I cannot as a NatSov bring myself to vote for this.

I abstain.

For.

For.
