Mining Bill

A Mining Bill was passed in the Pressylla system of the Outer Rim Territories as part of efforts by Governor Hast Ulim of the Galactic Empire to force the population of the star system to work in its mines, as they were of strategic importance to the Empire. The bill was stored as a file in the "Industry" section of the Pressylla Archives and later cited by the historian Beaumont Kin in his book The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire, in 35 ABY.
