We, the people of the sovereign, free and democratic State of Scotland, for the love of our fair nation and proud countrymen and women, do hereby express and enact our collective will through this Scottish Constitution, the supreme and fundamental law of Scotland; which holds that the founding principles of the Scottish State are popular sovereignty as the sole basis for legitimacy, human rights for all, including equality, freedom, justice, a clean environment and the search for happiness. This constitution hereby provides, in these detailed articles, a basis for the continual application and respect of these constitutional rights across all of Scottish governance and society, comprehensively underpinned by the most modern digital technology throughout all governing structures. All domaines of law, treaties, regulations and other laws, whether enacted past, present or future, will be void and without effect to the extent that they are incompatible with this Constitution.
§ 3. Autonomy of all persons over their bodies, including but not limited to the right to terminate pregnancy and euthanasia.
§ 5. All human beings have the right to peacefully assemble and form associations for any lawful purpose.
§ 7. The right to privacy in his or her personal affairs, family life, home, and correspondence. Consistent with technological advancement, provision shall be made in the CSL to safeguard personal data and information, and preserve privacy and security in communications and transactions conducted through electronic media with the highest level of security and encryption possible. No restrictions shall be made other than by a modification of the CSL, and must respond to a compelling social need, be limited in duration, and be proportionate to the purpose.
§ 9. The obligation of the Scottish government to take action to achieve a healthful environment, including clean air and water and a climate hospitable to life and supportive of agriculture. Provision shall be made in the CSL for the protection of the environment, the re-appropriation of land formerly held by the UK aristocracy, and for restrictions on the development of land and natural resources in furtherance of this clause.
§ 10. Every person shall have access to governmental information, all government reports shall be published, and the state shall exercise transparency in all functions, except as determined necessary by the CSL to protect the privacy of citizens and the security of the state.
§ 2. All citizens and legal residents of Scotland not in detention shall be required to serve on digital juries, with reasons for discharge to be prescribed by the CSL. Employers shall be required to accommodate those serving on juries.
Section D: Under no circumstances shall any bilateral or multilateral agreement or treaty enable foreign governments or corporations from bringing legal action against any Scottish government institution, legally-sanctioned entity, or individual.
