ANST - Kingdom Dance & the Law

While they can be secure, the do not need to be in Kingdom Law. They
could simply be in the Seneschal's handbook, which could be more easily
changed than Kingdom Law for additions, removals and changes.

I think that you misunderstood. The Scheduling deputy would still
maintain the only calendar, but there should be no *need* for the
Seneschal's office to keep track of what events are considered
"reoccuring" and their name. If we want them secure, than they can be
in policy instead of Law.

What if someone didn't like the name "Kingdom Dance Symposium" and
wanted to call it "Academy of Dance" one year? Would it be a reoccuring
event? What if we want it to be "Kingdom Dance and Music Symposium"
one year and split them to other events different years? Naming things
like this in law should be avoided in my humble opinion.

How often must an event occur to be "reoccuring"? For example, I don't
think I've seen a Queen's Children's college ever.
