When good intentions are not enough
Accountability without consequences is theatre. NCG deliberately builds clear, proportionate, and predictable consequences for those who repeatedly fail to deliver on their responsibilities.
When approval ratings fall below 50%, the individual or body receives a formal public warning and must publish a response and improvement plan.
Persistent low performance or implementation failures trigger a dedicated Delivery Jury review. The jury can recommend specific corrective actions or further escalation.
If failures continue despite warnings and reviews, the individual is removed from their position. For juries, this means early rotation. For Meta-Coordinators or senior officials, it can mean permanent disqualification from future service for a defined period.
In extreme cases of systemic failure (e.g. a Regional Assembly consistently failing to deliver essential services), a higher-level Meta-Jury can recommend temporary special measures or structural reform.
“Skin in the game without consequences is just words on paper. Real accountability requires that failure has a cost — not out of cruelty, but out of respect for the people who live with the results.”
Consequences work together with Public Trust Audits (early warning), Delivery Juries (investigation), and Rotation & Short Terms (prevention). Together they create a robust, multi-layered system that makes persistent failure difficult and costly while protecting genuine good-faith effort.
