Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain resignation, relay employment and political forms, procedures and conventions from labour law and parliamentary sources in general terms, describe the named forms, point people to employment advice, and distinguish resignation from dismissal, retirement, abdication, constructive dismissal and recall.
The formal act of voluntarily giving up an office, position or job, by notice to an employer or appropriate authority, including resignations from employment, ministerial and government resignations, collective resignations of a government after losing confidence, resignations of federal chancellors or heads of government, and resignations for health reasons or to take an incompatible office; parliamentary conventions vary, as members of the British House of Commons cannot resign directly and instead take an office such as Steward of the Chiltern Hundreds. The registry alias called to the Senate of Canada names an appointment that ends a Commons seat, related but distinct. Employment resignations are governed by contracts and labour law, and people facing workplace problems should consider advice before resigning.
What it is for: Voluntarily leaving an office or job.
It can be explain employment and political forms; relay procedures and conventions; describe named forms; point to employment advice.
