WHEREAS Closed provinces cause people to be assigned to a province different from where the catchment areas indicate they should, andWHEREAS We work really hard on the catchment areas, so we should use them, andWHEREAS If citizens are distributed without regard for their location, the provinces become solely "Senatorial Voting Clubs" without geographical meaning, andWHEREAS What is a geographical division if it has no geographical meaning?THEREFORE Lex.E.7.13, Lex.E.7.14, and Lex.E.7.15, which currently read;7.13. All provincial citizenship assignments shall be made when the province to which the citizen is assigned is OPEN to nonresident immigration on the day prior to the naturalization of said citizen.
