Citizen #22:
Miestrâ Schivâ | > As I pictured the Seneschal as a sort of collaborator in chief among the panel of Ministers. If I have not been particularly visible, it has been because I have not been needed there particularly. Perhaps my concept of Seneschal is completely wrong, but this is what my view has been.
To some degree it is a style thing, and you are certainly more laid back than your two ZRT predecessors, which I don't object to. But the Constitution says that the Seneschál sets government policy and directs all the other Ministers - he or she is the buck-stops-here of the Government's work (as opposed to the President, who has to keep the whole bigger-picture of the Republic running smoothly). For that reason, it is the Seneschál who the people look to for explanations of what's going on in all government departments - not the least because you don't have a Ministry of your own. People wonder what you do with your Talossan-related time.
> As far as my sort of "pet-project" goes, the Virtual Haxh, it is going slowly. As with anything, getting a few people completely synced is like herding fruit bats and water buffaloes simultaneously. But here's hoping it'll work out.
A small step in what I would consider a right direction would be regular updates on where these and other Government projects are going. The ZRT made a conscious choice not to fill up the Chamber with Questions all the time, but we would expect you to do this without being prompted. This will of course make it easier to hand it over to your successor if you're out of a job come Tuesday. :-)
