Talk:2021 Nauruan constitutional referendum

Future extinction of humans qualified for becoming member of the Nauruan parliament?
The current article text contains:

”Following the referendum, the government introduced a bill to amend article 31, adding four new disqualifications for becoming a member of parliament. These disqualified anyone who did not become a Nauruan citizen at independence in 1968, descendants of those who did not become citizens at independence, anyone gaining citizenship by naturalisation and descendants of those who gained citizenship by naturalisation.”

If this is/were an accurate rendering of the bill text, logic shows that no-one born after the time of independence, not even the progeny of those who became citizens at independence and were born after the time of independence, is or will be qualified for becoming a member of parliament, since they could not / cannot have become citizens at the time of independence since they were not alive at that time.

I can hardly believe a country would have excluded even those people, since at the latest about 125 years after the time of independence no living human would qualify.

If the bill text is rendered incorrectly, please render it correctly. If it is rendered correctly, please inform the government of Nauru of the impending government crisis.Redav (talk) 18:40, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
