Repeal: “Civilian Air Compact”
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
General Assembly Resolution #752 “Civilian Air Compact” (Category: International Security; Strength: Strong) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The World Assembly,
Appreciating that sensible rules and regulations surrounding the flight and flight plans of civilian aircraft are often needed, and GA 752 "Civilian Air Compact" seeks to institute these sensible protocols, and
Believing that the Civilian Air Compact overreaches in its authority to institute those protocols, giving a much greater burden to members of this Assembly than is needed to maintain the security of passengers aboard civilian aircrafts, and
Concerned, for example, that clause (vi) gives pilots of all aircraft an unreasonable amount of power over their flight plan, which for military aviators may undermine the chain of command and give a low-level pilot flying in a combat zone the protected authority to comply with their enemies, since the clause applies to all aircraft instead of just civilian aircraft, and
Distressed at clause (i), which requires all civilian aircraft to be tracked, even those which do not enter the airspace of any member, to be tracked, which proves a needless regulation for aircraft in large pockets of non-members flying locally to be tracked, despite the fact that there is no incentive or reason for this tracking, and
Believing that the requirement for members to establish vehicular fleets to rescue survivors of aircraft crashes outside their borders is admirable, but still harmful to members tight on cash who have to supply their own resources to nearby nations who may not even be fellow members of this Assembly, and
Hoping that any future attempts to regulate civilian aircraft to do so with a more precise scalpel, reducing burden on members while still establishing sensible regulations, therefore
Repeals GA 752 "Civilian Air Compact".

Regarding Artificial Islands
A resolution to reduce barriers to free trade and commerce.
Recognizing the use of artificial islands for various purposes, such as tourism, transport and energy production,
Concerned that without proper regulation, artificial islands may cause incompatible claims on marine resources between countries, leading to conflict,
Believing that artificial islands should be constructed in full compliance with international maritime law,
The General Assembly:
1. Defines :
1a. an artificial island, for the purposes of this resolution, as new dry land in a nations territory permanently affixed to the seabed from a body of water, that is not naturally formed,
2. Asserts that these artificial islands, when constructed, should not interfere with international shipping routes nor sea lines essential for navigation,
3. Declares that any artificial island cannot solely claim jurisdiction over their surrounding waters,
3.1. In cases where any member nations have disagreement on the influence of artificial islands upon these boundaries, authorizes the World Assembly Nautical Commission(WANC) to provide arbitration in these disputes, unless those nations freely decide on an alternative agreement.

Mining Safety Accord
A resolution to enact uniform standards that protect workers, consumers, and the general public.
This General Assembly,
Understanding that the extraction of ores and minerals is vital to many economies and the manufacture of goods across the multiverse,
Decrying the countless nations that allow the safety of those who extract said ores and minerals fall by the wayside to increase profits, and
Determined to prevent as many fatalities and injuries within the mining industry as possible,
Hereby:
Mandates that every underground mining operation must have a dedicated safety specialist onsite, who must identify flaws that pose any safety risk with a chance to harm workers, and advise operation owners on how to thoroughly mitigate their effect in the most effective and time-efficient manner reasonably possible, so as to prevent any possible accidents,
Requires that all mines still being used to extract resources must follow the following guidelines:
All mining operations must have a working and stable system of communication between those in the mines and those outside, with the communication system allowing those inside the mines to signify any possible danger to those outside for expedient relief efforts, and that immediate action should be taken if these dangers are present.
All mining operations must install working ventilation systems to alleviate toxic dust buildup and prevent overheating.
All mining operations must install working monitoring apparatuses for carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and any other toxic substance that poses a clear danger to the safety of mine workers, provided that there is any risk of that substance existing in that particular environment.
All mining operations must have workers' compensation insurance from an insurer regulated by a competent regulatory authority.
All mining operations must schedule and employ regular evacuation drills and ensure that workers are prepared to respond to any common danger that could occur in that mining operation.
Creates the World Assembly Workplace Safety Committee (WAWSC) which shall:
Take disciplinary action and continue the inspection process itself if any appropriate regulatory authority fails to engage in the inspection process in a method acceptable by the WAWSC.
Enforce, if any violations are found, that any mine which fails to comply satisfactorily with WA legislation is shut down. A condemned mining operation which would comply with these standards once open can be permitted to resume operations if seen fit.
Make sure local workspace regulatory authorities penalize those in charge of a condemned mining operation to an appropriate degree. All levied punishments in regards to this resolution may be appealed to said body, and if this is rejected, the WAWSC, with a final appeal to the WA Judiciary Committee being available to give a final ruling.
Demands that all mining operations are inspected regularly by workplace regulatory authorities using inspectors that have been thoroughly vetted by the WAWSC.

Prohibition on Coerced Testimony
A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.
Recognizing the inherently adversarial relationship between police and suspect,
Determining that the immense power imbalance between the state and the individual and the violence of suspect detention as inherently vulnerable to abuse by those tasked with enforcing the law,
The World Assembly hereby,
Defines an "officer" as an individual lawfully empowered to enforce the law or investigate violations thereof,
Forbids member states or their officers or officers of entities subject to member state jurisdiction from:
Coercing any form of communication from a detained individual,
Punishing or threatening to punish a detained individual for not communicating, or
Putting questions to a detained individual without either that individual's legal counsel present or that individual's explicit and uncoerced consent, or in the case of a detained minor that of their legal guardian, to take questions without counsel present,
Forbids member states or their courts or courts of entities subject to member state jurisdiction from:
Admitting evidence or considering evidence that includes communications obtained from an individual in contravention of section 2,
Admitting evidence or considering evidence consisting of polygraph tests, body language tests, or any other means of attempting to discredit verbal communication by means of assessing simultaneous nonverbal communication, or

Repeal: “The Great Costume Party”
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
Security Council Resolution #521 “The Great Costume Party” shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The World Assembly,
Appreciating the temporary festivity of the "Great Costume Party", as stipulated by SC 521, which occurred deep within the bowels of the World Assembly Headquarters and consisted of many revelries, and
Concerned at the potential for reoccurrence of this event, given the hostilities that inevitably broke out following the announcement of the winner of the costume contest, complete with accusations of corruption, full-length structured debates, and a cage match between President Jolene Josephine Jefferson of Haymarket Riot and Ambassador Gertrude Pullman of Electrum, and
Believing that the now-regular occurrence of seasonal declarations in order to commemorate some superfluous or otherwise arbitrary event sinks below the bar of events notable enough for recognition by this council, and distracts the members from the very real occurrences of international war, regional instability, and recognition of members of the international community worthy of recognition, therefore
Repeals SC 521, "The Great Costume Party".
