This survey is part of the evidence base being considered by the Board.To make an informed decision about the desirability and viability of the experiment, the Board is considering the following evidence:
- Support and Opposition Statements: including a clear, written record indicating who supports or opposes the request among the Sovereign, Consort, and Kingdom Seneschal.
- Documentation from any meetings held on the topic, including dates, audiences, and summaries.
- Data from the Google polling, including both raw data and any analysis performed.
- The legitimacy timeframe for the one-time experiment, ensuring it is valid for up to 2 years from the Board’s approval in case the current Crown does not enact it.
- Prior commentary from SCA-Comments
- Data from the survey of East Kingdom members and participants being conducted by the Board.
This evidence ensures a comprehensive and transparent review process for the experiment decision.
