  I thank the right honourable councillor of the Duxburian Union and welcome his amendments. I do believe the new technology clause is flexible enough as it reads "such as" so wouldn't limit new technologies only to blockchain or crypto but just cites them as examples .

  I do not believe that retail banking is obsolete or close to being so since many want the stability of an institution and protection of security features and financial protection offered by the industry. The chargeback and EuroPay Guard I believe is necessary to provide confidence in the network that would encourage people to use the system and its much better to have it organised at the Euro Pay level than through the banks or financial institutions without such a protection the system will be far too open to fraud and by setting aside a fund of 0.5% of transactions on the network we can cover transactions where money cannot be recovered from an account.

  Council Gridlock
  I must state my absolute disappointment in the council gridlock caused by officials not moving acts through on time or on schedule. The people of Europe and governments of Europe voted for a council that works and actually proceeds with legislation. I have limited time in office and want to use this time to benefit the European people by continuing to harmonises standards through acts. This is being obstructed by obstructionists and inefficient council procedures and beaurocracy. I urge the council to vote on legislation in good time and work with my commission to pass acts that benefit the European people through harmonisation of policies on trade, quality standards and safety to ensure cheaper more affordable goods for all in the EU through simplifying of red tape.The commission cannot do its job if the council is not sticking to times set out in the constitution and efficiently moving legislation through the council.

  Hello European Union!

  The Grey Wardens completed a Weekend of Wargames with our friends in The South Pacific that included chasing/triggering, mock libs, game nights, and more! When we weren't busy impersonating each other and confusing most of GP, we played some CityGuesser and Skribbl.io to reassure ourselves that we don't know geography and can't draw. To wrap things up, we released a joint statement about our friendly activities and a TGW raid report: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1650662

  I am announcing today that I am officially leaving the ELSS Eurogroup. I feel there is much more that can be achieved in legislation and more and more it is important to have more policy areas covered by the EU outside of Social legislation and I am afraid the brand of the ELSS is damaged seen as anti-EU . I know it is not but we need a more openly pro-EU Euro-Group that still protects sovereignty.I hope to move forward in a new Eurogroup in this vein.
