If I weren't the acting delegate right now, I would vote against the resolution for this reason alone.
There have been quite a few successful repeals offered on the basis that the original resolution was "badly written." I think it is also fair to point out that the IDU's offer to assist in proposal writing was in part based on the region-wide desire to improve the quality and reasoning of proposal brought to the UN floor for a vote.
If given a choice between seeing a badly written but well intentioned resolution pass only to seek repeal later or defeating that proposal now, and work with the sponsor to craft a well written proposal that can be adopted in good conscious, I much prefer the latter course of action.
