the nccusl is a body of private and government lawyers, state and federal judges, and law professors who are typically appointed by state governors. it drafts laws on a variety of subjects and proposes them for enactment by each state, the district of columbia, the u.s. virgin islands, and puerto rico. nccusl was established in 1892. the nccusl, while influential, does not have any direct legislative power itself; uniform acts become laws only to the extent they are enacted into law by state legislatures.

"how is it possible for mps to consult with their constituencies about the bills if they have not yet received them less than a week before parliament is due to sit to discuss them? if mps cannot consult with their electorates about the bills, how can they properly represent their views about these bills which will become laws that will affect their day-to-day lives? such late notice and late provision of the bills demonstrates that the government is not at all committed to the “stampa” principle of democracy and good governance, which is the representation of the people by leaders they elect to represent them. it reflects the government’s attitude that because it has a majority in parliament - which means its bills will automatically be passed - there is no need for the grassroots to know about these laws that it intends to pass, which will nevertheless affect their lives. this is an arrogant and undemocratic attitude which, unfortunately, has come to characterize our system of parliamentary democracy and particularly the approach of the major parties which have been in government over the last 20 years. [...] i have been telling communities in port vila that i will consult with them about the 2009 government budget, to get their views to present in parliament, and i am very disappointed and angry that the government, by their late notice, has meant that this will be very difficult, if not impossible."
