===First period as Secretary===
Llorens was elected as the first 'Assemblian native' Secretary in a near unanimous vote during the [[June 2017 general election]], with the endorsements of both Atealia and Cedoria. His policies included a revitalisation of the Leftist Defence Force through new training materials, limiting outside influence in the region, holding a referendum on whether to reinstate the party system, and abolishing the Secretary voting advantage in the General Assembly.
Leading the [[6th General Assembly]], Llorens passed five pieces of legislation, including removing the Secretary voting advantage in the Equal Vote Act, merging the Minister of Immigration and Customs into the Minister of Foreign Affairs in the Legislature Reduction Act, banning unauthorised foreign policy communications in the Foreign Communication Act, and once again overhauling the Constitution and Code of Laws to implemented a simplified numbered format. In September, he also organised the [[1st Culture Competitions|first-ever Culture Competitions]], which has become a biannual event for citizens to design and vote on certain visual elements in the region.
He was again elected in a near-unanimous vote as Secretary with no opposition in [[September 2017 general election|September 2017]], largely promising a continuation of the status quo, as well as a new "monthly census" to gauge opinions on the region. A quarterly census was hosted for the first time in October 2017, and has continued to date in largely the same form as its original. In the [[7th General Assembly]], Llorens continued his reputation of reform, notably abolishing the Minister of Defence and their Leftist Defence Force in the Military Removal Act, as well as separating the branches of government with a new Supreme Court and five independent Senators in the Judicial Separation Act.
Towards the conclusion of the term, Llorens became involved in a heated foreign affairs dispute concerning the proposed NSLeft membership of the Social Liberal Union. While most NSLeft regions initially voted in favour of their membership, scepticism by some vocal figures concerning the acceptance of a ‘liberal’ region into the alliance and perceived antagonism from members of the Social Liberal Union towards authoritarian leftists prompted regions to reconsider their stance. Llorens was criticised by some for deciding to reaffirm the region's vote in favour of their membership, making The Leftist Assembly the only region not to abstain or vote against it.
