Non-Voting Observers

Voting

Bills require a majority of affirmative votes compared to negative votes to be passed. However, a negative vote from a ministerial member prevents adoption of a proposal, a `veto`. An abstention from an minister is not regarded as a veto. The UN delegate, who takes part in all meetings, does not receive a vote.

Bills

So far, six bills has been passed to the Security Council. These were bills 0, 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Bill 2 failed. Bill 7 is currently at vote.
