The Letters of Government of Dalcour
”Letters” is the constitution of Dalcour, signed by the representatives from the Provinces of Dalcour (regional governments of Penegyar, Kedghistan and Cayerlon) in 2864. The Letters were first ratified by the Elected Duke of Tamarind in 2882, and then reaffirmed by each of his successors. The collection of the Letters, their amendments and the various agreements between the Provinces and the Government of Dalcour is called “Book of Government of Dalcour”.
The Letters outline basic and political rights of individuals, divides the powers between the government and the provinces and defines jurisdiction and authority. By ratifying the Letters of Government, the provinces have transferred certain aspects of their sovereign power to the planetary government of Dalcour while maintaining autonomy on most aspects of the government. The Parliament of Dalcour can collect taxes on certain types, hold power over all planetary tolls and regulate interstellar commerce. The Parliament can raise and support military forces, and is obliged to provide planetary defence and can regulate the possession of weapons and military equipment in Dalcour.
The Assemblies
There are three main governing bodies on the federal level, the Assembly of Provinces of Dalcour (legislative), the Great Assembly (executive) and the Council of Judges(judicial).
The Assembly of Provinces has 199 representatives (81 from Cayerlon, 81 from Penegyar, and 37 from Lattimer) who are elected under a system determined by each Province. All members of the Assembly from Penegyar and Lattimer serve for 4 years, but 29 seats for the Cayerlon representatives are hereditary under the Cayerlon law.
The Great Assembly is the nine-member executive group which serves as the head of state. While the entire Assembly is responsible for leading the federal administration, each assembly member heads one of the nine executive departments. The members are elected for a four-year mandate by the Assembly of Provinces, which also exercises oversight over the Council. The Premium of the Dalcour is elected by the Assembly of Provinces from among the nine members: the Premium chairs the government and assumes representative functions. Currently there are only five elected assembly members:
- The Premier Assembly Member Melvin Dambrosio is the Head of the Great Assembly and Master of the Hall, and the acting Head of the Department of Finance.
- Assembly Member Micheline Reger is the Head of the Foreign Affairs Department.
