Gnaeus Salix Astur Quiritibus S.P.D.

Ex Officio Tribunorum Plebis.

According to the laws of Nova Roma, it is my duty and privilege to
inform you about the results of the latest senatorial votings.

The following senatores cast a vote:

Lucius Cornelius Sulla Felix (LCSF)
Flavius Vedius Germanicus (FVG)
Pompeia Cornelia Strabo (PCS)
Marcus Octavius Germanicus (MOG)
Patricia Cassia (PC)
Marcus Minucius Audens (MMA)
Lucius Equitius Cincinnatus (LEC)
Titus Labienus Fortunatus (TLF)
Gaius Marius Merullus (GMM)
Lucius Sergius Australicus (LSA)
Caius Flavius Diocletianus (CFD)
Antonius Gryllus Graecus (AGG)
Alexander I.C. Probus (AICP)
Decius Iunius Palladius (DIP)
Marcus Cassius Iulianus (MCI)

Senator Quintus Fabius Maximus did cast a vote, but it arrived after
the consules had declared the voting closed, so it is not accounted
here.

The following senatores did NOT cast a vote:
Marcus Iunius Iulianus
Minervina Iucunda Flavia
Gaius Tullius Triumphius Cicero


The votes on each item of the current senatorial agenda were:


_______________________________________________
I. Tax Deadline Extension

Senatus Consultum: ONE MONTH EXTENSION OF TAXATION DEADLINE

* LCSF: Yes.

* FVG: No.

* PCS: Uti Rogas. It takes usually longer than anticipated to iron
kinks out of any new project. I commend the Consuls and Consular
Quaestors for their outstanding effort in making this system work as
smoothly as possible. One extra month is not too much to ask. I also
commend all citizens who care enough about Nova Roma to render their
tax monies.

* MOG: UTI ROGAS. This is sorely needed, due to the unforseen
difficulties with accepting international payments from citizens who do
not yet have "PayPal" accounts. I can think of no possible reason why
we would not want to do this.

* PC: Uti rogas (yes).

* MMA: YES;

* LEC: UTI ROGAS.

* TLF: UTI ROGAS

* GMM: Vti rogas I vote to extend the general deadline.

* LSA: Uti Rogas (Yes)

* CFD: Uti Rogas

* AGG: VTI ROGAS

* AICP: Uti Rogas

* DIP: Uti rogas.

* MCI: Uti rogas.

RESULTS: In favour:14; Against:1.
The proposal passed.

___________________________________________________
II. Tax Extension for Argentina

Senatus Consultum: TAX EXTENSION FOR ARGENTINA

* LCSF: Yes

* FVG: Yes. This is precisely the sort of situation the extension
provision was originally included in the Senatus Consultum on taxation.

* PCS: Uti Rogas. Given the irratic economic climate of Argentina,
coupled with the obvious dedication of her Propraetor and citizens, we
would be unvirtuous not to extend this consideration.

* MOG: UTI ROGAS.

* PC: Uti rogas (yes).

* MMA: YES;

* LEC: UTI ROGAS.

* TLF: UTI ROGAS

* GMM: Vti rogas I vote to extend the deadline additionally for
Argentina in particular.

* LSA: Uti Rogas (Yes)

* CFD: Uti Rogas

* AGG: VTI ROGAS

* AICP: Uti Rogas

* DIP: Uti rogas.

* MCI: Uti rogas.

RESULTS: In favour:15; Against:0.
The proposal passed.

__________________________________________________________
III. Procedural Clarification to the Lex Vedia Senatoria

* LCSF: Yes

* FVG: No.

* PCS: Uti Rogas. I think this will serve to respect the power of the
Censors to their historic authority over the Senate members (which
according to my reading they did have in the mid to latter republica
antiquita), and their current status in this regard in Nova Roma; by
the same token it will check a certain propensity to 'heel drag' with
respect to Censoral decisions as to whether or not to admit prospective
Senators, making them file a statement at the 'onset' of Senate votes
for these individuals. This legislation will reduce the amount of time
wasted by the Senate, and will force the Censors to use the authority
over the Senate roles in an appropriate, productive and more virtuous
manner.

* MOG: NEGAT. It's a complicated procedure, and I think that our
present method would serve well enough if only it was understood
clearly by all.
Currently, the Consuls and Senate propose, the Censors make the
final decision from among the candidates approved by the Senate
and from those who qualified automatically.
That is simple, fair, and balanced.

* PC: Uti rogas (yes). This is a sensible clarification of a procedural
issue that has held us up for too long.

* MMA: NO; I consider this item to be complicated, confining and
unnecessary. The Censors are Senior Magistrates and do not require
"Leading Strings" in order to accomplish thier tasks.

* LEC: UTI ROGAS.

* TLF: ANTIQUO - The current system is not only adequate, but also an
example of the checks and balances inherent in our constitution and
leges. It rightly establishes a division between those magistratus who
enroll Senatores and the processes that determine whom they may chose
to enroll. This proposal tampers with that balance. And, it would be
utterly unnecessary if our censores and Senatores would chose to simply

abide by the law, voting upon possible candidates on their merits
rather than on either their misconceptions about the law or their
desired version of the system.

* GMM: Nego I vote against this procedural clarification.

* LSA: Uti Rogas (Yes).

* CFD: Uti Rogas

* AGG: VTI ROGAS

* AICP: Uti Rogas

* DIP: Uti Rogas. I understand the objectoins to this but it does add
needed clarity.

* MCI: Negat.

RESULTS: In favour:9; Against:6.
The proposal passed.

IV. Proroguing existing governors:

Germania - Caius Flavius Diocletianus
Lusitania - Antonius Gryllus Graecus
Thule - Caeso Fabius Quintilianus
Canada Orientalis - Pompeia Cornelia Strabo
America Austrorientalis - Lucius Sicinus Drusus
California - Quintus Fabius Maximus
Nova Britannia - Marcus Minucius Audens
America Boreoccidentalis - Lucius Mauricius Procopius
Brasilia - Marcus Arminius Maior
Argentina - Lucius Pompeius Octavianus


* LCSF: Yes to all.

* FVG: Yes to all.

* PCS: Uti Rogas. My honoured and productive colleagues in the

do so.

* MOG: UTI ROGAS to all.

* PC: Uti rogas (yes).

* MMA: YES to ALL;

* LEC: UTI ROGAS. (all candidates)

* TLF: UTI ROGAS on all counts. It is quite pleasant to be able to
cast that vote with no misgivings whatsoever. Would that my own
provincia had a governer such as these.

* GMM: Vti rogas I vote to prorogue all.

* LSA: Uti Rogas (Yes) to all of the above

* CFD:
> Germania - Caius Flavius Diocletianus

Abstineo

> Lusitania - Antonius Gryllus Graecus
> Thule - Caeso Fabius Quintilianus
> Canada Orientalis - Pompeia Cornelia Strabo
> America Austrorientalis - Lucius Sicinus Drusus
> California - Quintus Fabius Maximus
> Nova Britannia - Marcus Minucius Audens
> America Boreoccidentalis - Lucius Mauricius Procopius
> Brasilia - Marcus Arminius Maior
> Argentina - Lucius Pompeius Octavianus

Uti Rogas to all governors. Continue your fine work!

* AGG: VTI ROGAS OMNIBVS.

* AICP: Uti Rogas to all governors. I see among them many distinguished

Romans who done an excellent job and do continue to serve to our
Republic as provincial governors, which is a hard but necessary duty.

* DIP: Uti rogas. (all candidates).

* MCI: Uti rogas to all.

RESULTS: All propraetores are prorogued

_____________________________________________________
V. Appointment of new Governors:

Britannia - Decimus Iunius Silanus
Hispania - Lucius Minicius Laietanus
Italia - Franciscus Apulus Caesar
Pannonia - Gaius Marcius Coriolanus
Venedia - Petrus Domitianus Artorinus Longinus
Canada Occidentalis - Ramesa Debrasca

* LCSF: Yes to all. Most of these individuals have sent their request

either to the main list...and/or senate@n... I have gone back
to my own emails and reviewed most of their statements.

* FVG: No to all. Perhaps if the Consul had included the text of your
petitions to assume the governorship in the call to vote, I would have
something upon which to base my decision. But as far as this vote is
concerned, I know nothing about any of you.

* PCS: Uti Rogas. I have reviewed your correspondence to myself
privately and via the Senate and mainlist, and I am satisfied that you
are dedicated and able to assume the duties as governors of your
respective provinces.
I especially look forward to having another governor in Canada.

* MOG: UTI ROGAS to all.

* PC: Uti rogas (yes).

* MMA:
----Britannia, Decimus Iunius Silanus----ABSTAIN;

----Hispania, Lucius Minicius Laietanus----ABSTAIN;

----Italia, Franciscus Apulus Caesar----NO;

----Pannonia, Gaius Marcus Coriolanus----YES;

----Venedia, Petrus Domitianus Artorius Longinus----ABSTAIN;

----Canada Occidentalis, Ramiesa Debrasca----ABSTAIN;

My vote pertaining to the proposed Italia Governor stems from my view
of
his unwillngnes to deal with other efforts in Nova Roma to promote her
success. I do not care to use an abstention except where necessary,
but
in the above cases I simply do not know anything of these candidates,
and considering our past problems in appointing Governors, I cannot in
good conscience vote for someone who is an unknown quantity to me.

* LEC: UTI ROGAS. (all candidates).

* TLF: UTI ROGAS on all counts.

* GMM: Vti rogas I vote to appoint all.

* LSA: Uti Rogas (Yes) to all of the above

* CFD: Uit Rogas to all candidates. Decmius Iunius Silanus made a fine
start as Scriba Censoris so far, and he will be a fine and able
governor.
Also, I´m happy to see able new governors for Italia, our ancient
home country, Pannonia and Venedia, all neighbour provinces to
Germania. I hope that Gaius Marcius Coriolanus continues the good work
of Alexander I.C. Probus Senator.

* AGG: VTI ROGAS OMNIBVS.

* AICP: Uit Rogas to all candidates.

* DIP:
> Britannia - Decimus Iunius Silanus
> Hispania - Lucius Minicius Laietanus
> Pannonia - Gaius Marcius Coriolanus
> Venedia - Petrus Domitianus Artorinus Longinus
> Canada Occidentalis - Ramesa Debrasca - Created 2000/04/17 DOB 13

Uti rogas.

> Italia - Franciscus Apulus Caesar

Antiquo

* MCI: Uti rogas to all.

RESULTS: All candidates are appointed.

RESULTS: The following three candidates have received the support from
the Senate:

Date: Thu, 28 Feb 2002 16:31:23 -0000
D. Iunius Silanus Omnibus S.P.D.

First allow me to begin by expressing my gratitude to those senators who voted, or would have voted, for my appointment as Propraetor of Provincia Britanniae. I trust that your faith will not be misplaced. I wish now to present my hopes and ambitions for the province for which I have been made governor. In doing so, I wish to allay the trepidation's of those who felt that they were unable to support my application in the senate. That is not to say that I do not understand and appreciate the apprehensions some may have. I believe that the only thing worse than a province without a governor, is a province with an unhelpful and inactive governor who works against the aspirations and ideals of Nova Roma, intentionally or otherwise. However, I believe that those who have worked with and know me thus far, would not consider me such an individual.

I must state for the record that since my activity began in Nova Roma, I have felt somewhat saddened by the lack of activity, with few exceptions, that appears to emanate from Britannia. Given this provinces historical affiliation with ancient Rome, and of course the common language that we share with our founding fathers here in Nova Roma, Britannia really should be one of our core provinces. I do not mean this to the detriment of other provinces within our res publica, but I do think that we in Britannia are in an almost unique position that we have singularly failed to exploit. I understand that our current situation is a result of incidents past and there is no need for them to be discussed here, but it is evident to me that a program of revival needs to take place.

How is this to be achieved. I certainly make no promises of fancy gimmicks and showy web sites. These are neither within my realm of expertise or knowledge. Whilst they have their place, and I certainly do not rule out a web site in the future, I do not feel that these will contribute to the essence of what is required at this time. What I do promise to the people of Britannia is commitment, communication and activity and in these I feel I have a proven track record as those who know me can verify. As well as representing the interests of the senate within the boundaries of Britannia, I will also advocate on behalf of the legitimate interests of all citizens of this province. As a whole we need to strive to enhance a provincial as well as our own individual commitment to those ideals of Nova Roma and we can begin by rebuilding and fostering our own sense of community and identity. I urge all citizens of Britannia to join and communicate via the NR Britannia Provincia e-mail list (BritanniaProvincia@yahoogroups.com) as a start. It is also my intention to encourage and support organised face to face meetings. Lastly, I fully expect to engage with and draw on the knowledge and experience of my more seasoned propraetorial colleagues.

My endeavors as Propraetor will not succeed with me alone. It will require the support and activity of all citizens of this province. I encourage all of you to contact me with any ideas and propositions you may have for the benefit of this province. Even better, lets engage in debate on the provincial list. I am open to ideas from anyone.

Finally, to those senators who may feel that this post is rather like closing the stable door after the horse has bolted, I apologise. However, I feel it is better to make such a post now rather than not at all. I do not promise success to anyone. I feel it would be arrogant to do so. However, I do intend to succeed and I can promise that I will work my utmost to do so.

Vivat respublica.

Valete,

Decimus Iunius Silanus
Propraetor of Britannia.
