The Traditionalist group was split with one vote for [[Michael Hutchinson]]. The factionless senators split their votes equally, while the Democratic Humanist senator abstained, citing a conflict of interest stemming from politics in the [[Imperial Federation]]. In the debate, most senators acknowledged the superior candidacy of Mendoza, due to his vision of change and reform, and also his relations to Hurmu as New Alexandrian ambassador. Similarly, supporters of Hutchinson highlighted his long history of diplomacy and negotiation and him being a member of the Order. However, the Order had not been consulted on his nomination, why the majority felt it was not bound to support him by loyalty alone.

1752 1 10 Resolution:

THE SENATE OF THE LAKES

(1) Resolves that the Order of the Holy Lakes shall withdraw from the Xäiville Convention, effective at the end of the year 1752; and

(2) Directs the Ambassador of the Order to the Xäiville Convention to notify the parties to the Convention immediately upon adoption of this resolution.
Adopted
1752 11 5 Ratification of a treaty with the Lanzerwald Republic Adopted
1752 12 15 Enactment of the ratification of the Brettish Isles Accession Treaty and subsequent Charter amendment. Adopted The accession of the Brettish Isles takes place on 1.I.1753. All other aspects take place immediately.
1752 12 15 Swearing-in of the two new senators, Robert Vernet and Ekaterini Metaxas.
1752 14 10 Ratification of the Treaty establishing the Apollonian–Benacian Community. Adopted
1752 14 24 Be it resolved by the Senate of the Lakes as follows.

The Charter for the Order of the Holy Lakes is amended with the following provision, inserted at an appropriate place:

"The foundation of the national security policy of the Order of the Holy Lakes is non-alignment in peace aiming at neutrality in war."
Adopted (17–1–12) The Charter amendment was thus adopted and cemented the Order's new foreign policy.
1753 7 9 Resolution on the NKR insurrection and NKR skirmishes into Lontinien.

Be it resolved by the Senate of the Lakes as follows.

In accordance with the obligations placed upon the government of the Realms under the Order of the Holy Lakes, and mindful of the recent disorders in Lac Glacei.

The Senate of the Lakes does hereby authorise the Secretary of State for Peace to direct the Hurmu Fyrð to enter the territory of Edelweiss and Lorelei with the objective of expelling those armed formations which have so recently threatened the peace of the realms.

Adopted
1753 8 15 Straw poll on MTO secretary-general election.

An informal vote was held in the Senate to gauge the Senators' preference on an MTO secretary-general.
Held A majority (17 votes; H+T+X) was cast for Túpac Mendoza, while a minority (7 votes; C+V+T+X) votes for Michael Hutchinson. The Traditionalist group was split with one vote for Michael Hutchinson. The factionless senators split their votes equally, while the Democratic Humanist senator abstained, citing a conflict of interest stemming from politics in the Imperial Federation. In the debate, most senators acknowledged the superior candidacy of Mendoza, due to his vision of change and reform, and also his relations to Hurmu as New Alexandrian ambassador. Similarly, supporters of Hutchinson highlighted his long history of diplomacy and negotiation and him being a member of the Order. However, the Order had not been consulted on his nomination, why the majority felt it was not bound to support him by loyalty alone.

1754 7 20 Adoption of the Apollonian–Benacian Community Article IX Act Adopted
