L005 - Nuclear Proliferation Act - Entropan - 09-03-2025
Nuclear Proliferation Act
Preamble:
Understanding the history and power of The League and Concord's nuclear program, established and disestablished in accordance with its necessity to defend the Republic during the biannual nuclear apocalypse scheduled unto us by the powers beyond,
Expressing utmost gratitude to the tireless efforts of those nations who have contributed to the program, safeguarding the regions through nuclear winters of years bygone,
Believing that, with the strength and influence of the armed forces of The League and Concord, we should and must be able to exercise vast amounts of influence on the final results of the next called armageddon, putting in place preparations to ensure that the sovereign nuclear deterrent of the Republic are well-poised to destroy nuclear adventure by the adversaries,
Realising that, however, with the repeal of CRL 35, there remains no in-force legislation to prepare us for any future apocalypse;
The Government of The League and Concord hereby:
Defines ‘nuclear reinforcement’ as the state in which the Republic’s nuclear forces are part of a larger alliance, contributing to the collective defensive and offensive capabilities of the larger group.
Defines ‘nuclear independence’ as the state in which the Republic’s nuclear forces stand without membership of a broader alliance, handling collective defence and offence on its own.
Mandates the establishment of a Nuclear Response Committee as soon as the date of nuclear escalation is known, to be in charge of–
i. encouraging the participation of all residents and citizens of the Republic in defending the Republic and its allies from outside attack during the apocalypse, proliferating the combined nuclear arsenal of the Republic, and attacking those others as deemed fit;
ii. overseeing, consulting, and deciding on the overall policy of the Republic’s nuclear forces with regards to the specific shape of its nuclear reinforcement or nuclear independence;
iii. coordinating the opening and closure of private channels of communication to aid in nuclear policy;
iv. deciding upon its own name and symbolism;
v. organising for the proliferation of propaganda in aid of the proliferation of the Republic’s nuclear forces, and;
vi. proliferating and creating literature surrounding the operation of the nuclear programme, and the technologies available to support more efficient operation.
Permits persons into the nuclear response committee only insofar as they–
i. have voluntarily signed up for membership,
ii. are a recognised Citizen of the Republic, and,
iii. do not have their membership reasonably objected to by the Consulate.
Establishes, contemporarily to the establishment of the Nuclear Response Committee, the Office of the Sunfire Command, a collegial nuclear command appointed by and accountable to the Consulate, empowered to–
i. overrule decisions of the Nuclear Response Committee on the basis of adverse consequences for regional security or foreign relations;
ii. serve to coordinate and command the nuclear forces of the Republic through the apocalypse,
iii. decide upon its own name and symbolism;
iv. represent the Republic in diplomacy with other regions or nuclear alliances as it sees fit, and;
v. act with the expressed or implied mandate of the Nuclear Response Committee in areas not explicitly outlined in this Act.
