Line 41:
Temporary acts refer to acts that require the approval of a simple majority of members of the Council of the UNAC. Temporary acts can be passed by the Council of the UNAC without the approval of the Auroran Parliament only if the Council of the UNAC declares a state of emergency. Temporary acts have an in-built expiration date. They are used as temporary relief or response to an emergency such as a war or a natural disaster. They allow for the mobilization and redirection of funds that would otherwise require a formal budget and other appropriations legislation. Emergency acts can also suspend the implementation of ordinary laws to enable member states to redirect resources and political capital to responding to a crisis. This type of act arose directly as a response to the failure of the [[Auroran Continental Assembly]] to respond to the [[Auroran-Pacific War]] of 2017 and it was also inspired by the Cyclone Mable disaster of 2018.
===Extraordinary acts===
Extraordinary acts can only be passed by the Council of the UNAC.
These acts are spefically required to:
* Dissolve the Auroran Parliament and trigger new elections.
* Dismissal of a member of the [[Auroran Court of Justice]]
* Expulsion of a member.
However, extraordinary acts can be used to do anything as long as it does not conflict with the Charter or a treaty. This means that the Council can make any decision through an Extraordinary act. This means that the opinion or approval of other bodies is not necessary if the Council passes an extraordinary act. These acts are not temporary and they are not situational. For example, the Council could theoretically appoint the President of the UNAC Commission without the approval of the Auroran Parliament if it passed an extraordinary act.
