DEPARTMENT AND CABINET ACTIVITY
Department of State (DOS)
Achievements in August:
- July State of the Commonwealth Report
- August Ambassador Reports
- Formally established Ambassador Report Pay
- Oakridge Special Election for Mayor/Dep. Mayor
- August RBA Special Election
- Named A__C as the official Willow Mayor
Goals for September:

- Create a classification for Foreign Intelligence Reports
- Audit all Government Departments - last full month of the Administration
- Reestablish foreign ties with the newly-elected Stratham Government
- Assist Willow and Oakridge in completing their town before the October deadline.
Department of Construction & Transport (DCT)
Achievements in August:
- Hired 2 new BI's and introduced the Sky Bridges Policy
Goals for September:
- Food Truck permits; evictions
Department of Health (DOH)
Achievements in August:
We are currently working on reporting every single issue with the new plugin, to make it work smoothly. We’ve opened the Exams recently and every inactive doctor has been fired from the Department. We’re looking forward to make our Department bigger in terms of employees, which would simplify dealing with diseases for everyone. We’ve also renovated a very big area of the main Hospital, the basement, which was completely empty and almost useless. We’ve added two more Rooms, one for MS, and the other one for the Secretary and Deputy. We’ve also granted access to TDs+ to the old “Secretary only” room, giving life to the abandoned side of the Hospital, and also letting Doctors get milk directly from the cow in the basement, instead of buying it (This was the purpose of the basement, mostly. Only MS+ had access to it, now everyone can go there). This project has been completed a few days ago, and it still needs to be announced, which will be done by our Deputy.
Goals for September:
We’re gonna run another Activity Check, to see who’s really doing their job. We’re gonna open Medical Exams soon as well, as to pursue the goal I previously described: we’d like to make our Department bigger in terms of numbers. We’d also like to hire more Medical Specialists, since some resigned in the last few months. We’re gonna advertise the /EMT command more, which is fundamental for our Paramedics.
We’re still working on the new Disease plugin, which isn’t fully functional. We’ve been having problems while crafting cures, that appear to be all mixed up. In order to properly achieve our goals, we need a fully working plugin. I’m hopeful it will be fixed soon though, since everyone in the Department has reported its malfunctions.
Department of Education & Commerce (DEC)
Achievements in August:
- Expedited the work and billboard application processes through Discord ticket services
- Implemented fees for driver's, pilot's, and gun licenses

- Addition of a Mason job to take charge over recyclable items that do not fit into Recycler, Lumberjack, or Miner
- Measurement of GDP by Commerce Team
- Measurement of inflation by Commerce Team
