Ministry Analysis:
The Ministry of World Assembly Affairs values the advancement of science and the cooperation of nations in the process. The ministry supported the repeal of Access to Scientific Knowledge because of "the need for ethical research and proper respect for confidentiality". This proposal resolves both of those issues. It requires all submitted research to follow national and international ethical standards, as well as to undergo peer review. It also ensures sufficient confidentiality for member states without allowing states to benefit from the ISCA without contributing anything by implementing a tradeoff: if a member state chooses to withhold certain research, the ISCA will withhold some research from other nations. While confidentiality remains an option, it comes at the expense of access. Thus, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs recommends a vote FOR this proposal.
