Representative,

I have read the titles you attach to your transcripts, and It appears they are as follows.

"Milliardo Peacecraft
Representative for Garos IV
Chief Advisor to Queen Cerra
Head of Pediatrics, University of Garos Hospital
Professor of Medicine, University of Garos"

Is one salary not enough for you? That you must seek out multiple jobs? And indeed fail to commit sufficient attention to either? Indeed your recent obvious lack of reading on my recent legislation?

I believe a sitting Head of Pediatrics at a Medical Hospital is inappropriate to sit in the Senate, just as a sitting University Professor is. To take other salaries at the same time as being a full time Government Advisor and Senatorial Representative appears to be a clear conflict of interests, as well as bad practice in neglecting each job.

Equally, since you appear to be casting votes in the chamber, I would ask the Chair if it is appropriate. Especially considering that Mr Peacecraft has not sworn an oath of allegiance to the Empire in this chamber, nor has he been approved by a majority of this house. I would point to "Senatorial Protocol" rule 4.1 with regards to the requirement for approval of Senators and Representatives.

"4.5. Speakers on the Senate that are not approved Senators or Representatives must request to speak and be recognized by the chair, or by a Senator or Representative, before addressing the Senate, except in cases where a member is requesting membership."

Definitely horribly bad form for Representative Peacecraft to not request the floor or swear his oath of allegiance. I'd like to hear the Chair's view also.

The Senators' concern is appreciated. The chair was notified in writing, however, that Senator Cerra was on leave and that Mr. Peacecraft had her standing permission to speak on her behalf. Granted, the chair was not notified of this until recently, but it is what it is. While he does have permission to speak, though, it is true that the oath of office will need to be administered in order to count his votes. Mr. Peacecraft, if you will repeat after me, please.

"I, (state your name), do solemnly swear, under penalty of treason, that I will represent the people of (state your constituency) to the best of my ability, that I will bear true allegiance to the Empire, its Emperor, and its policies, that I will uphold and abide the Imperial Charter, that I will preserve and protect the principles of the New Order, and that I will defend all of these from all enemies of the Empire, both foreign and domestic. So help me."

I too have my doubts as to whether Mr. Peacecraft's titles and positions at the Garos Medcenter and University of Garos represent a conflict of interest, but as long as these are unpaid positions, I am willing to give the benefit of those doubts to him. Are these, in fact, unpaid positions, Mr. Peacecraft?

While I understand your concerns, I can assure this body that I do not see a penny from any of my positions, if i did, do you honestly believe I would be here? I would be retired to some far off, tropical planet, surrounded by beautiful models.
