Concerned about a repeated occurrence of this event happening, possibly with more dire consequences,
Cautious to protect the sovereignty of nation-states,
Prospecting the ability of nations to collaborate in order to achieve justice,
Aware of the individual’s right to privacy and freedom,

Ambassador Callum Parkes and the wider Ahnslen Delegation of the League of The Western Isles bring this proposal to the floor for consideration.

For the purposes of this resolution, the following terms will be defined;

1. International Drug Smuggling Organisations (IDSO in abbreviated form) are malignant entities who engage in behaviour seen to be illegal under the conventions of international customary law.
2. Multinational Anti Drug Smuggling Authority (MADSA) – A proposed agency to address the growing threat of IDSOs

The Ahnslen delegation presents these provisions for consideration.

1. The establishment of the Multinational Anti-Drug Smuggling Authority (MADSA) as an agency of the League. It is to act as an agency devoted to the fostering of an environment of increased collaboration between nation-states in order for IDSOs to be dealt under the full extent of national and international law. There are to be no barricades to membership if the nation seeking to be represented is a member of the league.
2. If MADSA receives a successful response to their recommendations to the League, nation-states are to be compelled under the authority of the league to provide relevant information to the agency under a terms of reference.
3. On recommendation of MADSA, the League is authorised to administrate reasonable sanctions against nations that do not cooperate.
4. The delegation also proposes the establishment of an international police organisation in order to combat threats like multinational drug-smuggling organisations. A resolution is to be created by a committee of the League comprised of nations who show their interest to join said organisation, for wider consideration of the chamber.
5. This international police agency is to coordinate with MADSA. Neither of these organisations have the power or authority to hold a trial process, but rather must refer these cases to the International Court of Justice for their consideration.

Acknowledging the importance of a strong, international agency to combat and dismantle international syndicates who aim to smuggle illegal substances across national borders,
Recognising the duty member-states of this League have to ensuring international peace and security,
Distancing the Multinational Anti-Drug Smuggling Authority from its weak and dependent past form,
Focusing on the need for a refreshed and renewed resolve to the blight that the illicit drug trade is on all economies within the Isles,

The League of The Western Isles hereby;

1. Repeals the 2017 resolution (Resolution #10) to the extent of its inconsistency with the provisions set out in this resolution. These are predominately its requirement to collaborate with the League assembly and the foreshadowing of an international police agency.

2. Establishes and reshapes Multinational Anti-Drug Smuggling Authority (MADSA) to reflect the following provisions in this resolution.

3. Establishes the Office of the Commissioner of MADSA and vests the power to appoint the Commissioner in the Secretary-General.

   • The Commissioner may be dismissed before the expiry of their four year term by a majority vote of the Assembly.

4. Stipulates that the Multinational Anti-Drug Smuggling Authority is responsible for administrating and facilitating collaboration between nations on dismantling organised drug smuggling syndicates throughout The Western Isles. Further, its jurisdiction extends to any power or instrument given to the agency in this resolution or latter resolutions.

   • MADSA warrants can be issued by any national government or its delegate and filed in a database administrated by MADSA which all nations can access and are expected to act upon.

   • MADSA warrants are to be used in order to investigate and if necessary, arrest individuals involved in the trade of illicit substances across national borders.

   • MADSA warrants do not replace regular extradition processes, but rather compel national governments and local police to arrest and investigate suspected crimes that have taken place in other jurisdictions.

   • MADSA warrants require the signature of the Commissioner of MADSA or a suitable representative appointed by the Commissioner in order to be enforceable.

   • MADSA warrants cannot be used as a means by which to compel a nation to extradite an individual or members of a group.

   • MADSA warrants can only be issued where a government or its delegate possesses a reasonable suspicion that an individual has participated or will participate in activities linked to the trade of illicit substances.

   • Disputes over MADSA warrants are to be heard by a single judge of the International Court of Justice at the earliest possible opportunity.

   • If a government has concerns about the warrant before the stage at which it is to be enforced, they may appeal to a single judge of the International Court of Justice who will determine the merits of the claim. If there is merit to the appeal, the case shall be heard in front of two or more judges of the Court.

6. Introduces the offence of ‘harbour or facilitates the international illicit drug trade’.

   • This offence is criminal in nature and can only be brought in circumstances where MADSA warrants have been ignored in an unreasonable or malignant manner.

   • The penalty for an offence under section 6 of this resolution is to be decided through the discretion of a single judge or multiple judges of the International Court of Justice, but can be no more than fifteen years imprisonment.

   • This offence does not prevent a national government from initiating procedures against an entity, organisation or government to remedy a wrong that has been committed against the former because of the latter.

Introduced to the League by the Unified Electorates of Ainslie on January 3, 2021.

Adopted by the League, with nine in support, five against and one abstaining.

The League of the Western Isles,

Acknowledging the importance of nature and the environment in the well-being and development of human societies, its importance in facilitating the production of goods essential to the welfare of humanity, and its inherent connection and mutual relation with humanity itself,

Acknowledging the role of humanity in safe-guarding and protecting ecological systems and biosphere as humanity holds more power in the decision of acts that would impact and alter the environment both short-term and long-term,

Acknowledging that act of ecocide, as defined, and its harmful effects on human societies and civilization as an act disrupting natural processes integral in the functioning of the environment and the world,

Recognizing the need for a framework that would delineate and define the boundaries in which an act can be treated as ecocide, as such, subject to different systems,

Recognizing the need for nations to develop national frameworks that would identify and monitor the act of ecocide and to define responsibilities of respective nations to protect the harm of their respective environments,

The League of the Western Isles, thus,

1. Defines the term ecocide as;

(a) Any act that results in the temporary or permanent damage of an ecosystem or a significant area of ecological importance, determined by its net biomass, biodiversity, population of endemic or endangered species, conductivity to human society, and importance to human welfare, whether intentional or accidental;

(b) Any act that would drastically alter or irreversibly damage the ecology of a biosphere conducive to the processes of nature, such as but not limited to, animal migration, animal breeding grounds and seasons, floral adaptation, floral reproduction, natural nocturnal cycles, etc.;

(c) Any act done that deliberately harms the environment in order to deprive a group of people of natural resources and processes in the production of basic necessities, such as but not limited to, food, water, clothing, and shelter, etc.;

(d) Any deliberate act that would involve intentional and malicious incapacitation or death of flora and fauna on an unnecessary scale of number, as such that it will not yield any positive outcome;

(e) Any act, whether intentional or accidental, that would be conducive to an ecological catastrophe on a global or regional scale, that would cause significant harm to the welfare of human societies and nature;

2. Encourages the creation of an international framework that shall oversee the act of ecocide in terms of transnational and international acts, to oversee compliance to international environmental standards, and to act upon discretion and interpretation, the definition and bounds of the act of ecocide,

3. Encourages nations to evaluate their legal systems and laws in order to accommodate the recognition of ecocide and to implement measures in upholding such,

4. Encourages nations to affirm their commitment in environment and ecological preservation, as so to act in the prohibition and criminalization of ecocide,

5. Emphasizes the gravity of the act of ecocide as harmful and a threat to all nations and people.

The Western Isles,

1. Recognizing latest scientific findings on climate change, as well as the growing threats of natural catastrophes.

2. Acknowledging the fact that for many nations in The Western Isles, natural hazards and disasters are a common sight.

3. Coming to the conclusion that with international collaboration, natural hazards can be avoided, predicted, detected and prepared for

4. Seeing the need for an international collaboration in the department of natural hazard threat detection as a way of strengthening ties between nations, preventing lives from being lost, preventing financial damage in the sum of millions of taxpayers money and preventing ecological damage to precious and unique environments.

§1
The Western Isles defines natural disasters as the following:

1. droughts and floods
2. heat waves and cold waves
3. any form of storm (may it be tornadoes, monsoons, hurricanes, tropical depressions, blizzards, sand storms, hail storms, derechos, dust storms, firestorms, cyclones, etc.)
