Repeal "Ban Single-Hulled Tankers"
A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution
Category: Repeal
Resolution: #11
Proposed by: Jey
Description: UN Resolution #11: Ban Single-Hulled Tankers (Category: Environmental; Industry Affected: All Businesses) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Argument: The General Assembly of the United Nations,
APPLAUDING the attempts of Resolution #11: "Ban Single-Hulled Tankers" to prevent serious environmental damages involving oil tanker ships;
NOTING WITH REGRET that Resolution #11 makes no legislative effort to actually prevent the oil spills referenced to, only providing the rhetoric that the United Nations "must unite to ban single-hulled tankers and endorse the use of double-hulled tankers";
CONVINCED that serious environmental issues such as oil spills should be addressed by the United Nations with legislation that contains actionable language to fulfill its intent;
UNDERSTANDING that it is in the interests of the United Nations to eliminate legislation that contains nothing more than rhetoric;
BELIEVING that more comprehensive and effective legislation can and should be enacted to eliminate serious environmental hazards;
REPEALS Resolution #11: "Ban Single-Hulled Tankers."

If it passes, maybe this region could resume its (formerly significant) UN presence by producing & pushing through a suitable replacement?

Incidentally, LL-C votes aye precisely so that we can replace it with something better.

OK, for?
I'd love to see an IDU resolution pass again. It's been so long.

I'd like to author the replacement, if none other is ready to go.
Otherwise, has anything been done on the Rights of the Child?

I don't see any decent proposals covering this topic. So feel free to write away Ll-C.
I don't know anything about Rights of the Child...
