Article IV To allow the smooth government of the Akatsuki, a system of laws and policies shall be used. I. Policies A policy is a rule or other operating procedure that a minister has proposed. Any minster has the authority to create and change policies within his or her own ministry. A policy is absolute within its own ministry but does not hold any bearing outside it. II. Laws A law is an absolute and constant rule or operating procedure that is to be observed and followed by all members and ministries. Any Director has the right to put any ministry of his Office’s policy through a vote of their respective council in order to upgrade it to a Law. In order for a policy to become a Law, it must receive a 3/3 vote from all the ministers or all those casting a vote for that office. III. Amendments The Charter is a document that outlines to core principles of the alliance. The Charter is not a document that is easily modified. The Charter is a painting with broad strokes, and should not include many details. Amendments to the Charter are classified as either minor or major. Minor Amendments are small changes to the document, and can be passed with a 5/5 vote by the Interior Council with both Directors voting. A Major Amendment is defined as a large rewrite of the document totaling over 300 words edited, or any Minor Amendment either Secretaries deems as Major. Major Amendments can be passed with an 8/8 vote by both Councils with both Secretaries voting. Either Minor or Major Amendments can be passed with a 2/3 majority vote of the general membership with at least one third of the total members voting.
