Attention Senators About Citizenship!

Gday Australia,
Recently, the Citizenship and Quota for Immigration Act was passed by the Senate and it outlines the procedures for granting citizenship to citizens and a quota of how many citizens per country can be granted citizenship per month.
Rather then to quote the Act, I will summarize it below:
The Department of Immigration, Customs and Security will post a list at 0.00 everday on the forums in the Senate section, and only applicants for citizenship on this list can be grantedby Senators.
This is so the DoICS can investigate applicants, and weed out anyone who doesn't have the best interest of Australia at heart.
No Senator should approve citizens who are not on this list.
Basically, It is breaking the law and that could mean good bye to your political career and potential backlash from the country!
Each month, the following quotas will be enforced, with a set limit on the amount of citizens allowed to Australia per Senate month.
40% from USA and Canada.
40% from the rest of the world.
20% for reserve, to combat a PTO or if there is no PTO, will be made available for anyone
Now before anyone starts shouting that I am a racist and a xenophobe, this quota is in place to protect Australia's political scene. Having too many people from one country can create a PTO by accident, and with many people wanting to leave the USA and Canada to start afresh, these quotas are in place to protect Australia.
To the current Senate, well done on a good term and a final list for this month will be posted in the next couple of hours in the Senate section.
Regards,
Patti11
Minister for Immigration, Customs and Security

Question - I have a friend IRL, say if I get into senate can I plead his case?
Dean there is nothing in the Bill that would prohibit you from recommending somone for citizenship and in fact this would perhaps be recommended.
we will do investigations from the department and contact the people who we think need to be contacted. In your case, we would contact you Dean
Ah ok, thanks guys
eWoomera is a better idea lol
we should have an eChristmas Island for processing
how about a CITIZENSHIP TEST???
good idea. It's not racist to protect ones country from takeover.
It's not xenophobic to prevent entry to criminals and PTO'ers.
You have my full suport on this one bro 🙂

@ Nadim Majeed
A Citizenship Test? What are you going to do, ask refugees questions about the history of eAustralia? Those things are a joke. Most native born citizens don't know enough about their own country's history to pass those things.
@ patti11
Quota systems in the real world have been declared xenophobic and racist. They are used to keep out people whose country of origin the people administering the quota system doesn't like.
This is why I am going to propose a bill in the Senate establishing a Citizenship Criteria that isn't based on a quota system. It will more resemble the RL Australian immigration system. Basically, you have to have a job in Australia (Not hard to do in eRepublik, so in our case you would have to have been actively working it for some time.), and/or be "sponsored" by a citizen. Maybe this won't so effectively prevent a PTO, but at least it wouldn't be based on xenophobia and racism.
Patti11 - whilst this seems like a very good idea (in theory at least) ... there still remains the problem of you being able to let just anyone into the country.
I mean, for crying out loud - you let ME into the country unhindered!
