THE CONFERENCE

'''Conference of Councilors to the Assembly of the United Stars of the Galaxies aka THE CONFERENCE'''

 These eight Individuals are chosen or elected differently for each Council but all are officially appointed by the President. As with all official and public offices,posts and assignments the Assembly can veto, appoint or dismiss any of these Individuals or even disband the Conference, the Councils or the Departments of Government they represent. (It never happened but the Union Constitution is quite clear on that) The Conference convenes once a month (or in times of distress, difficult decisions, catastrophes or crisis situations.) and present the findings, conclutions and opinions of the Experts of each department. Usually the Conference presents a monthly address to the Assembly that is a joint statement of all segments of the Conference, delivered by one of the Chiefs. [1] In times of War, crisis or distress etc. the Conference convenes at the center table of the Assembly and advises the Assembly with expert opinions.

[1] All Public requests, calls from Planet Representatives, Civilization Representatives or the request, question or concern of any Union Citizen are collected by the Office of the Conference, sorted, grouped and channeled to the correct (if necessary several) Departments. Each Citizen request is taken very serious. (By Law the Voice of a Union Citizen is the single most important part of Union Government) There are Trillions of Union Citizens and the Chance that there is an issue, question or request that is important to more than one Individual is quite high, but in the very rare incidents that there is no one else asking or requesting something that individuals request will be filtered to the right department and if no satisfactory answer or solution can be given, the matter is taken to the Floor Speaker of the Assembly ( or the Individual is invited to post the question / request in person) and the request is made. The entire Assembly and the Conference will not go to the next docket until the matter is solved.
