In Parliament, the twenty-sixth of April in the year of his Lord, seventeen forty-nine.

A motion has been put forth within His Majesty's Parliament to create and define a series of checks and balances on each of the six Great Officers of State (Prime Minister, Lord Chancellor, Lord Speaker, Secretary at War, Vice Chancellor, Speaker of Commons). Therefor, under the supplication of the law, a separation of powers has been drafted and presented to Parliament for voting on. The Law shall state that all officers are given the ability to retain their departments, without interference by other GOS'. Excluded from this is the Prime Minister, who shall hold the authority to alternate and revise any proposition or act set forth by any GOS within their respective departments, with His Majesty's consent.

In His Majesty's most noble Judiciary system, the Lord Chancellor shall hold power as respective leader of the department. As all GOS' shall hold the title of Justice, they must yield to the Lord Chancellor and Vice Chancellor, who rank as Chief Justice of State and Vice Justice of State, respectively. No other GOS shall revise, alternate, modify, substitute, or otherwise evolve the Judicial Branch of the Kingdom of Great Britain &amp; Ireland.

Within the Parliament of Great Britain &amp; Ireland, the Lord Speaker shall be seen as the leader of the Legislature, with the power to override the Speaker of Commons, as well as dismiss any member of Parliament, as long as a reason is specified (The Sovereign and the Prime Minister shall also hold this right). No other GOS shall revise, alternate, modify, substitute, or otherwise evolve the Legislative branch of the Kingdom of Great Britain &amp; Ireland.

The Secretary at War shall hold authority as the professional head of the British Armed Forces, under the Commander-in-Chief of the Forces (Prime Minister). The Secretary at War shall be given the right to dismiss and appoint new Commanding Officers within the military (though this can be overruled by the Prime Minister or Sovereign). The Secretary at War shall also be given the right to dismiss the respective heads of the different branches of Military (First Sea Lord of the Royal Navy, Master-General of the British Army, Captain-General of the Royal Marines, Lord Commander of the Royal Guard, etc). No other GOS shall revise, alternate, modify, substitute, or otherwise evolve the Armed Forces of the Kingdom of Great Britain &amp; Ireland.

The Vice Chancellor and Speaker of Commons shall serve as the respective right-hand men to the Lord Chancellor, and Lord Speaker, respectively. They are given the same rights as their superior counterparts, but may be overruled by them as well.

Members of Parliament are authorized to use the { {Support} } and { {Oppose} } templates as they cast their votes.

Thus I, the Earl Grey, stamp my seal upon this proposition, and offer it to Parliament.
