[ 040102 ] Table of Contents of the principal modifications of revision 3.
Deepening of the differences in nature (not only in degree) between the Convention and a political or civil constitution. The provisions concerning the scission of the Pact disappear, insofar as it is indeed a private contract: there is no place for a scission.
Introduction of the difference between electoral and economic rights. The firsts are reserved to physical individuals and are worth for a user license offered by the holder of the Convention in force. On the other hand, the economic rights are associated to "commercial operators" (individuals or entities) identified in accordance with the laws in force in the participant's Country of residence.
The text explicitly introduces the reference to the International Conventions of Arbitration, into force since 2002, as well in the GLT, and in the Convention.
The Constants of reference are released and gathered in Appendix, to reinforce the perennially of the text.
For the first time, the name of the translator is published alone on the cover of Convention (CITI-Article 11CITIArticle 54,2).
[ 070102 ] Discusses around the threshold of procedure. As long as the budgetary charge on censal funds is lower than the threshold of procedure (fixed to 1xTG), the system makes it possible to approve a budget by a restricted vote (without convening a direct vote). An adopted budget is proportionally distributed on the totality of the funds (exploitation or nominal funds), without making difference. There is an ethical debate around this mechanism, which in theory would make it possible to successively approve budgets without ever resorting to the direct poll. It would suffice to reduce the budget to maintain the budgetary charge below the threshold of procedure. Actually, the debate is perverted, insofar as one tries to solve problems that apply to the territorial democracies, which do not have any signification in this case. The Convention uses a mechanism based on voluntary,which seeks to simplify the approval of the budgets, without calling upon heavy procedures, with the condition that the budget percentage compared to the censal funds is lower than the General Rate. Even thus, the GT is a central piece of the system: increasing the GT in order to increase the margin left to direct budgets approved without direct vote, implies also the increase in the deductions on nominal incomes, which will be noticed. Then, the Convention reinforces the strongly deterministic behavior of the system, marked by the transparency of information and the possibility of activating counterweights on all the levels: separation of the participants; second vote of the Council, and majority of two thirds before being able to approve restricted procedures; annual mission report after approval, etc... Moreover, it is significant to keep in mind that the Convention representative system does not impose the delegation of powers, and that the GT is not a compulsory tax. This means a participative and voluntary model, in which each participant invests in solidarity, understood like the expression of the general interest. In a word, a particular member who brings only one part, takes a right of glance on totality.
