[hider=Lawful Protection Bureau]
[b]Overview[/b]: This bill proposes the creation of the Lawful Protection Bureau whose sole purpose is to prevent unlawful arrests and try to find ambiguous laws or loopholes to protect the rights of the Samgolan citizens. It’s initial cost will be $1,500,000.

[u]Article I[/u]: The Lawful Protection Bureau will investigate any arrest to find if the arrest is unlawful or not. If the arrest is found unlawful and against the rights of the citizen, the citizen will be pardoned and the offending officer will be fined and/or fired. Another responsibility the Lawful Protection Bureau must do is find ambiguous laws as well as loopholes, and bring them to the attention of the National Assembly.[Liberty][/hider][/hider]
