On the Definition of the Three Major Varieties of Cabinet Mandates
The Constitution grants the Cabinet the authority to issue mandates for the betterment of the Council. In my mind, there are three major varieties of Cabinet Mandates. They are as follows:
Mandates of Service
Mandates of Service are the mandates by which the Council presses a Members-Citizen into service as allowed by Article IX Section A. These mandates are subject to the appeals process described in Article I Section F.
Mandates of Law
Mandates of Law are the mandates by which the Cabinet sets policy and legislation for the betterment of the Council of Nexus as allowed by Article II Section C. Currently these mandates can be overturned only by the appeals process described in Article I Section F. However, I believe that an amendment should be introduced to allow for the Member-Citizens to overturn these mandates if they are found Unconstitutional. I have delineated this proposed amendment in my Framers Paper entitled ‘On the Necessity of the Adoption of a List of Amendments Restricting the Powers of the Cabinet’ there named Amendment V.

Mandates of Treaty
Mandates of Treaty are a mandates by which the Cabinet ratifies treaties with non-Member entities in the Forest, as allowed by Article II Section C. These Mandates should also be subject to Constitutional Review as set forth in the proposed Amendment V in my Framers Paper entitled ‘On the Necessity of the Adoption of a List of Amendments Restricting the Powers of the Cabinet’.
