GENERAL ASSEMBLY RESOLUTION AT VOTE
Repeal "Sexual Privacy Act"

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.


Category: Repeal


Resolution: GA#16


Proposed by: The Dark Star Republic

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #16: Sexual Privacy Act (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: The World Assembly,

Acknowledging that WA Resolution #16, "Sexual Privacy Act", mandates that all member nations legalise incest,

Understanding that children conceived by closely related persons can be in severe danger of inheriting congenital birth defects,

Believing that there is a compelling government interest in restricting incest,

Regretting that such action is illegal under WA law with the Sexual Privacy Act in place,

Resolves the situation by repealing WA Resolution #16, "Sexual Privacy Act".


While I don't find the argument to be compelling I do feel that legislating on sex is well outside the purview of the Assembly.
Add to that the fact that this is a repeal and it gets my support.

Absolutely FOR. This repeal is long past due. Sexual Privacy Act is one of the most carelessly drafted resolutions in WA history; it was hurriedly introduced after critics pointed out that FOMA only legalized marriage and not homosexuality itself, and the fact that it inadvertently forced the legalization of incest on all nations was a terrible oversight. That, and the author of FOMA/SPA was a total prat.

Thanks for the insight, Kenny.
