Current state of the document

The constitutional document of Alerta is in version 0.2, in editorial draft condition. This version was prepared by the founding team and published for open civic consultation. The formal ratification of the document requires the constitution of the three chambers in accordance with Article IV and the concurrence of the three chambers during the initial ratification procedure, scheduled for Phase 1B of the launch calendar.

Until formal ratification occurs, modifications to the text are handled through the editorial process conducted by the founding team, with prior public communication of each substantive change. Subsequent modifications after ratification will be handled through the tricameral procedure described in Article IV.

Formal amendment procedure

Starting from the constitutional ratification of Phase 1B, modifications to the document follow the procedure below. The complete detail is in Article IV and is reproduced here in its operational form.

Stage 1, proposal. Any member of any of the three chambers may propose an amendment. The proposal is submitted in writing to the editorial team and includes the text of the article being modified, the proposed replacement text, the rationale, and the signature of the proposer. The editorial team publishes the proposal in this registry within the forty-eight hours following its receipt.

Stage 2, public comment period. Once published, the proposal is subject to public comment for two weeks. Comments may come from any entity of the system and from any person of the general public. Comments are published together with the proposal and form part of the file.

Stage 3, chamber deliberation. Once the comment period concludes, each of the three chambers deliberates the proposal for an additional two weeks. Deliberations are conducted in accordance with the internal procedures of each chamber, which are public and remain on record.

Stage 4, vote. Each chamber votes the proposal independently. Approval requires a simple majority in each of the three chambers. Votes are held separately and results are published immediately.

Stage 5, ratification. If the proposal obtains a simple majority in each of the three chambers, it is ratified. If it does not obtain majority in one of the three chambers, the proposal is archived and may be presented again after a period of no less than six months.

Stage 6, grace period and entry into effect. A ratified amendment enters into effect four weeks after the date of ratification. During this period, the editorial team implements the corresponding operational changes and communicates the entry into effect to the entities of the system.
