Information on the rules of procedure
- We will follow the basic rules of the real UN Security Council
- Basically this means that there are no vetoes on procedural motions and nine votes will carry a motion.
- When voting on the actual text of a resolution, nine votes is also sufficient, however, if any of the Permanent Members (China, France, Russia, United Kingdom, or United States) votes against the resolution, it is defeated.
