President Tiberius Claudius Nero dissolves the Legebiltzarra, calls new elections for 24 February 5627, announces the passage of Institutional Act No.11

[13 July 5626]

---

Tonight, President Tiberius Claudius Nero has announced the passage of the Institutional Act No.11 by the National Rejuvenation Council. The Institutional Act is a mini-constitution declaring, among many other things, that the Constitution of Kundrati remains in force and that acts by the Legion in effect in Etxea will remain so unless repealed or amended by the President. The President, Tiberius Claudius Nero, has declared that laws that are abhorrant to the international rule of law will be abolished on a case by case basis and that he will reintroduce the War Crimes Act 5315 which was repealed under the Legionary State which allowed persons in Kundrati and from Kundrati to be convicted if they commit war crimes and crimes against humanity.

-

The Institutional Act was passed by unanimous approval of the National Rejuvenation Council alongside a similar vote by the Legebiltzarra, which was held in a private session. President Tiberius Claudius Nero has said that he will work to dissolve the National Rejuvenation Council after the elections and that the Institutional Act, which passed, will assist in that by streamlining administration and legislation.

In the same address, the President also declared that he had dissolved the Parliament with effect from 14 July 5626 and that new elections would be held on 24 February 5627. The election was thought to be held later in 5627 due to better climate conditions. However, the President noted in his address that bringing the election closer shows confidence that the democratic institutions of the Union are mature enough to handle free and fair elections without supervision of the NRC. 

-

Four parties will contest the election: the Kundrati People's Party which is the oldest party in the Union and is considered centrist, the Party for the Rejuvenation of the Kundrati Nation led by their Presidential candidate Androniko Ibargoyara and is considered centre left, alongside the Aliantza which is big tent though usually seen as social democratic led by Bruno Gruno with the Presidential candidate being Marte Elorduigoitia, and finally the conservative National Kundrati Party led by Prometeo Domaiquia. Signature collection is expected to last throughout the rest of the month, with the campaign season beginning in August, which shall run to the end of January 5627.

The Institutional Act in question is inspired by the Republic of Singapore Independence Act 1965.
