Motion to AMENDMENT THE AGENDA STRUCTURE

Replace current Item 2 (b):

2 (b) Statutes Update Motion for Compliance Purposes in the Case of Liquidation

With the following restructured and logically ordered section:

2 (b) Comprehensive Statutes Update (Compliance & Governance Reform)

  • Block I: Fundamental Legal Safeguards

    • Motion 6: Autonomy of Internal Language & Register Filing

    • The Board’s Liquidation Motion: Compliance Revision for Dissolution (LBR Registry Requirement)

  • Block II: Membership & Financial Shield

    • Motion 1: Ordinary Member Compliance & Automatic Suspension Safeguards

  • Block III: Separation of Powers & Operational Continuity

    • Motion 2: Independent Council Chair Framework (incl. data transfer mandate)

    • Motion 5: Operational Board Quorum & Emergency Prevention (1/3 calculation baseline)

    • Motion 7: Reconvened Council Meetings & Quorum Fallback Mechanism

  • Block IV: Transnational Democracy & Modernization

    • Motion 3: Bicameral Structure for Individual Members (Second Chamber integration)

    • Motion 4: Digitalization & Audit Clause Modernization

REASONING

While fixing the liquidation text is vital to clear the Luxembourgish Business Registers (LBR) registration hurdle, our statutes require broader structural maintenance to stay legally resilient. This package addresses critical operational risks (such as board deadlocks from un-registered resignations, statutory reporting mandates, and the transnational integration of individual members).

By rearranging the agenda this way, we address strict administrative registry requirements first (Block I), followed by internal governance, voting mechanics, and inner-party democracy (Blocks II-IV) in a cohesive, logical manner before the Board elections take place under Item 3.

Thank you for your consideration and support.

Best regards

Thomas Gaul
Council Member on behalf of PPDE
