General Assembly Resolution At Vote

Repeal: “Right of Emigration”

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.

Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#279

Proposed by: Simone Republic

General Assembly Resolution #279 “Right of Emigration” (Category: Civil Rights; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

The World Assembly (WA),

Affirming that it is a fundamental right for individuals to freely exit from a nation without hinderance;

Noting that the target resolution allows individuals to be prevented from leaving a WA state, subject to certain conditions, but these conditions contain several loopholes that can be exploited by others to deliberately impede someone from leaving a WA state, such as:

Exemption “b” permitting anyone “undergoing legal proceedings” to be prevented from leaving a WA state fails to:
1. distinguish between civil and criminal proceedings, nor the parties involved;
2. consider the severity of any legal proceedings, or whether they are frivolous in nature;
Exemption “d” for probable cause to commit a crime does not account for the scenario of certain actions by an individual being a crime in one WA states but not another, and require a more nuanced solution that accounts for, for example, the severity of the crime or any appeals;

Horrified that as a result of these loopholes, well-resourced malicious actors, government-affiliated or otherwise, can effectively prevent anyone from leaving a country through vexatious litigation, or a potential emigrant can be beholden to an inefficient court system or entangled in endless legal proceedings due to engaging in a profession that is prone to civil litigation;

Looking forward to the WA passing future resolutions that affirm the right to exit a WA state without the said flaws;

Hereby repeals the target resolution, Right of Emigration.
