Title 002

Preamble

Being that Title 001 has established the principles of our new nation, we now set forth some corollaries of these principles, to enumerate expected results from their application.
In order to guarantee maximal utility from the laws for the people governed, the efficiency and application of the laws must be measured. Laws found not to be enforced in a consistent manner will be re-evaluated, possibly setting forth more homogeous application for such laws. When a law is found that the law is not applied consistently because it does not affect the citizens in a consistent manner itself, it should be withdrawn, or the government will have to justify keeping such a law for a worthwhile purpose.

Challenge

The venue for challenge of any law will be parliament itself, but absent a supermajority, shall remand such cases to a class 4 constitutional court, such as silver court of Byzance, or the Black Court of Megamisama. An invidual law can only be challenged five years after it has been promulgated, and only once every year thereafter. Any invidual member of parliament can only challenge five laws in a two years period, to prevent abuse and spurious challenges.

Data

The Executive Branch of the empire of great kagomei shall keep such statistics as the rate of each crime occuring, and the rate at which it prosecutes each crime, under the aegis of the Lifeguard Protectors, who are specifically empowered to investigate the conduct of armed servicemembers tasked with law enforcement wherever in Kagomei it may occur. The budget of this agency will be drawn independantly from any law enforcement unit, and for administrative purposes, shall be considered a part of Assignment Branch. Shall be considered law enforcement units for the purpose of this act:

Border guards

Life guards

Base military police and any military units left tenant of garrison duties in Kagomei proper

Military life guards, including officer temporary lifeguards

Tribunal guards and other lifeguards protecting the Kagomine Legislative Branch

Lifeguards of members of the Kagomine Executive Branch

Lifeguards of members of the Kagomine Assignment Branch

Lifeguards of members of the Kagomine Judiciary Branch

The totality of Kagomine Enforcement Branch, including any political appointees that lead such

Embassy guards drawn from Kagomine personnel, any embassy guards drawn from Non-Kagomine sources are obviously not subject to their review, but due to their extensive training in dealing with sensitive law enforcement situations, they may take the lead in such investigations, if only to supply such to the Kagomine Department of State for further action.

Retention

In order to allow comparison of laws and their efficiency, this data shall be kept for no less than 20 years, in 9 different locations, 3 each under the aegis of the lifeguard protectors, three under the border guards, and three under the armed forces, in three different service branches. This data is not to be singled out in any way, and is to be stored along regular critical, long-retention data at those facilities. This data is to remain accessible for prosecution of armed service members of all stripes, and any long-term recording of Kagomine citizens for any large-scale purpose(this excludes narrowly-defined areas of interest of national security), shall be stored in this manner,, and remain accessible for anyone, including individual citizens who feel their rights have been violated by law enforcement.
