[Proposed Amendment] Admission by Ratification Only
In order to make membership more accessible, I would like to propose the following amendment to the General Treaty:
To be amended as:3. Membership in the MTO is open to all other Micran states which accept the obligations contained in the present Treaty and, in the judgment of the Organization, are able and willing to carry out these obligations. Nations wishing to join the organization must be approved by the General Assembly with at least a 1/3rd plurality. If rejected, a nation may reapply in 3 months.
3a. Members may be expelled from the organization for extraordinary reasons by the General Assembly with a 3/4th (75.0%) majority.
3b. Members that have been removed from the map of Micras, as maintained by the Micronational Cartographic Society, shall be removed from the organization by the Secretary-General.
3c. Members that have lost their sovereignty or independence through a merger or absorption into another nation shall also be removed from the organization by the Secretary-General.
3d. Any nation or subnational autonomous entity may apply for observer status, provided that it is officially consented by the national entity it belongs to through their proper constitutional means, to the Secretary-General, who will put the application before the General Assembly, needing a simple majority vote to pass. Observer status grants a seat and voice in the General Assembly but no vote.
3. Membership in the MTO is open to all sovereign states on Micras which accept the obligations contained in this present Treaty and have ratified this Treaty by their own procedures. A new member state will inform the Organization it has ratified the Treaty, and the Secretary-General will arrange for the immediate entry of the new member into the Organization.
3a. Members may be expelled from the organization for extraordinary reasons by the General Assembly with a 3/4th (75.0%) majority.
3b. Members that have been removed from the map of Micras, as maintained by the Micronational Cartographic Society, shall be automatically removed from the organization by the Secretary-General.
3c. Members that have lost their sovereignty or independence through a merger or absorption into another nation shall also be removed from the organization by the Secretary-General.
3d. Any non-sovereign nation, subnational autonomous entity, or other international organization, may apply for observer status, provided that it has permission from the national entity it belongs to through their proper constitutional means, to the Secretary-General, who will put the application before the General Assembly, needing a simple majority vote to pass. Observer status grants a seat and voice in the General Assembly but no vote.

May I offer an amendment to the amendment?

Re: [Proposed Amendment] Admission by Ratification Only
I'm fine with that. It makes things too confusing. And its kinda redundant: if a merger results in the junior partner nation being removed from the map, then they are removed anyway.

It has been a week. Do I have a motion and a second to begin voting on amending the General Treaty?
