All other competitive political entities, parties, or organizations are hereby declared Illegal.

Executing Article 1
The core function of the IPoK is to ensure the maintenance of the Monarchy and to cloth the fiat of the Monarch in legal/administrative legitimacy. Therefore, any Party that aims at abolishing the Monarchy outside of the Institutional Party Structure is hereby deemed an illegal political assembly and may be denied the right to Participate in Government at any level.

Executing Article 2
Within the Institutional Party Structure, there may be free exercise of internal democracy. Informal factions and caucuses may form, and may struggle for control over the legislative agenda and the composition of the Government. The only two exceptions to this is that there may be no specifically or implicitly fascist tendency, nor may there be a specifically or implicitly anti-monarchist tendency. The Institutional Party is and will remain explicitly pro Monarchist and anti-fascist. Other topics are open for debate and legislation.

Executing Article 3
Any caucus that adopts a pro-fascist or anti-monarchist position will be expelled from the National Assembly. The Internal Affairs Ministry shall be entitled to issue orders governing the implementation of the law.

Executing Article 4
Organizations or individuals which aim at overthrowing the established imperialist regime in the country, but outside of the Party Structure shall be dissolved or detained without trial for up to five years. Peaceful civil society actions determined to be within the Title IV of Statutory Laws on Civil Rights and Liberties for individuals outside of the legislative system shall be protected.

Executing Article 5- Appended 5660

These non-partisans shall be overseen by the Lord Mayor. The City Governments are free to practice home rule within the Cities, though the Lord Mayor retains the right of veto of any act or statute of the City Government which is harmful or contrary to National Law or the Imperial Fiat. A City Government may appeal any veto to the Duchy, who retains the power to overturn a veto by a Lord Mayor in favor of the City Ordinance.

The Institution of Emperor/Empress is not considered a political office, and therefore, is not covered by this bill.

Offered this Day, First August 5536 by Lord Stephen Wilkes, Chancellor of the Empire in the name of His Imperial Majesty, Emperor Select Fredrick II Ananto.
