Relevant notes from the explanatory memorandum

98. This section limits the power of the Enactor and each entity in the foundational control group to vote in resolutions other than those which subsection 13(1) applies (for the exercise of the legislative or executive power), or a resolution which may only be voted on by foundational members, holding full membership eligible to succeed to the Enactorship.  This provision is crucial as the Enactor is effectively given the right to formally ‘manage’ without the prospect of removal in return for remaining ‘above politics’; this requires membership held by the Enactor and entities within the foundational influence group of which Urabba Parks is member not to be counted when determining an election of a member of Parliament or approval in a referendum for an alteration to this Constitution.

99. Subsection (2) provides a member of the foundational influence group of which Urabba Parks is Head may vote on the succession of the Enactorship – this eliminates the potential for such an entity to succeed, where there would not be an entity (not being a state jurisdiction) that would ultimately hold Foundation in Urabba Parks, meaning there would effectively be a vacancy in the place of the Enactor.
