Regarding Imperial Decree #070104--
Please see the comments of myself and the Grand Duchess Diana under the "Parliament" section. Giving the nobles one vote in the Lords and another in the Deputies is unconstitutional.
We request that the Emperor modify this Imperial Decree.

Your Majesty, If you want this decree to be in effect, it must have change in the constitution. In the constitution there isn't such concept as co-head of state. According the constitution each Imperial decree must step on to the parliament for voting.
