Second Draft of the Treaty of Curacao

[pbrione]

--Incomming Transmission--

Taking into account your suggestions, Mr Barrington, I have made the following amendments to the main text to try and satisfy your requests:

1. References have been altered to reflect the official title of the Independent Miners Guild

2. Article I, Clause 4 has been amended, granting more equitable voting rights to the quartet, and establishing a legal framework under which future amendments to the Treaty can be made. More democratic tie-breaking votes have replaced the LN and BAF vetos.

3. Article II, Clause 3 has had the relevant passage inserted into it.

4. Added Article I, Clause 6. This should protect against your fears of any government appropriation of the natural resources of Magellan or Cortez.

5. I do not consider it neccessary to insert a clause relating to damage to your Freeport or ships by BAF or LN officers specifically. Your concerns regarding this should be alleviated by the Property Rights as defined in the new Article I, Clause 6, by which you would naturally have the right to sue for damages to any of your corporate property, by BAF, LN, or indeed any other vessels.


I trust you find these relevant changes satisfactory,
Awaiting your further response on this matter,

Commodore Stanley Nelson
BAF Diplomatic Officer
5th Fleet - HMS Suffolk
