The Young World Parliament,

  2. Affirms the right of every applicant to an explanation and to an appeal heard by a person.

Counsel

Senior Counsellors, the former Presidents and Prime Ministers of United World Leaders, may publish written Counsel on a frozen text. They advise; they never vote.

Reserved. In this simulation no Counsel is shown: statements are never attributed to real leaders on fictional Motions. When the Parliament opens, signed Counsel will appear here in full.
