Cultural Exchange Between Species Bill

The Cultural Exchange Between Species Bill (aka. Interspecies Exchange Bill) is a government legislation passed three years prior to the events of Everyday Life with Monster Girls, condoning the cultural exchange between humans and non-human liminal species, or extra-species.

Preamble
While aware of their existence and actions in the world, the government withheld any and all information regarding the presence of extra-species from the general human population, for fear of the resulting backlash should their existence be discovered. After various talks and negotiations between representatives of each species, it was decided all species could benefit from open and peaceful co-existence with each other. And so, the bill was proposed and passed.

With this bill, many extra-species have successfully integrated into human society through the guise of a "Cultural Exchange Program". However, there exists individuals and/or groups who wish to take advantage of, or otherwise harm, members of alternate species. To prevent this, legislation has been enacted to incorporate members of extra-species into the "human rights" acts, protecting each species from being acted upon by or with violence, with the threat of criminal charges and appropriate punishment.

Cultural Exchange Program Act
Operating in the same manner as typical international cultural exchange programs, the Cultural Exchange Program allows humans to be sent to experience life within the cultures of other extra-species, while members of those cultures have also been invited to experience life in the human world. Traditionally, members under this program are select as and treated as "diplomatic representatives" of their respective species.

To accommodate and enforce the statues under the Cultural Exchange Program, government-selected individuals, designated as "Coordinators", are specially trained and employed to monitor, supervise, and resolve any tasked item regarding interspecies interactions under this program.
 * Cultural Exchange Coordinator

Coordinators are responsible for: 1) providing information, counseling and advice regarding the Cultural Exchange Between Species Bill and the subsequent Cultural Exchange Program to any person inquiring; 2) actively seeking, recruiting and inspecting new volunteer candidates for an interspecies homestay or host family; 3) supervising and supporting current homestays and host families in order to maintain a suitable homestay environment and lifestyle; 4) identifying, addressing and resolving any interspecies-related issue, conflict, or infringement, either tasked to or encountered by the coordinator.

Through the Cultural Exchange Program, members of each species can apply to be a representative candidate for a "homestay" - a living arrangement with a host family of an alternate species to experience the culture and subcultures of that species. Human candidates apply for a homestay with a extra-species host family in that species' respective environment (similar to a "dispatched homestay"), while extra-species candidates apply for a homestay with a human host family at that host family's place of residence (similar to an "invitational homestay"). After applying, candidates are assigned a Cultural Exchange Coordinator tasked to inspect, interview and review the qualifications of said candidate. They also ask questions of preference from the candidate to better pair them with an appropriate, more suitable host family. Reviewed by the assigned coordinator, it's determined whether a candidate is approved for the homestay: once approved, at a later date, the representative will be placed in a homestay with a prearranged host family approved by the assigned coordinator.
 * Interspecies Homestay

By law, all homestays are to be wary of, and adhere to, the Interspecies Protection Act. Within the host family's place of residence, homestays are asked to follow the daily routines and customs of the host family au pair - as a normal member of that host family - to experience that species' cultural lifestyle, so long as it doesn't impede on the homestay's cultural rituals or habits.

By law, homestays cannot roam outside the residence without accompanied by a member of their assigned host family and their documented proof of homestay, unless said homestay carries an approved special exception permit. Those in violation of this will be detained by local law enforcement, who will contact their assigned coordinator of the situation and await for the coordinator to take them into their custody. Punishment handed by their coordinator will vary based on the history of the homestay and the gravity of the violation itself, and can include but not limited to: financial fines, community service, revoking homestay, criminal charges and/or deportation.

Through the Cultural Exchange Program, members of each species can also apply to be a "host family" - a family quartering a member of an alternate species as part of a homestay. The host family can range from a single-person family to a multi-person family, provided the host family can properly accommodate for the homestay, regardless of the number of family members. As with a homestay, after a host candidate(s) applies, they are assigned a Cultural Exchange Coordinator to inspect, interview and review the qualifications of said candidate(s), and are also asked questions of preference to better match them with an appropriate homestay. The coordinator also inspects the host candidate(s)' place of residence along with their daily lifestyle to assess if such a homestay is appropriate. Reviewed by the assigned coordinator, it's determined whether the host candidate(s) are approved for a homestay: once approved, when the assigned coordinator has selected an approved homestay for the host family, the host family is introduced to the homestay at a later date. Should the residence need to be modified to accommodate the homestay, the coordinator will inform the host family of the needed modifications and send a team of approved specialists will be sent prior to the homestay's arrival.
 * Host Family

By law, all host families are to be wary of, and adhere to, the Interspecies Protection Act. Within the place of residence, host families are asked to respect the homestay's cultural rituals or habits, while treating them au pair and involving them in the host family's daily routines and customs. This is to allow the homestay to not only be comfortable in the place of residence, but also experience that species' cultural lifestyle. Host families deemed sub-performing or in dereliction of duties by their assigned coordinator are reprimanded, with punishment including but not limited to: financial fines, community service, revoking host family privileges, and/or criminal charges.

By law, a member of a homestay's host family must accompany them when outside the residence, and must carry the appropriate documents showing proof of homestay. Those failing to do so will be detained by local law enforcement, who will contact their assigned coordinator of the situation and await for the coordinator to take them into their custody. Punishment handed by their coordinator will vary based on the history of the host family and the gravity of the violation itself, and can include but not limited to: financial fines, community service, revoking homestay, and/or criminal charges.

Some extra-species members can be granted special exception privileges in lieu of certain political, cultural, or employment conflicts. Candidates must apply for these special privileges, and be assigned a Cultural Exchange Coordinator to review and approve such privileges under specific restrictions and/or requirements. Some permits allow extra-species members to roam outside without having a host family (such in the case of Centorea Shianus), but must be closely supervised by their assigned coordinator. Some permits given to some government agencies and specific private companies allow extra-species exemption from parts of the bill in order to perform certain tasks in their daily job.

Interspecies Protection Act
With the co-integration of human and extra-species people into everyday society and the adoption of the Cultural Exchange Program, the level of interaction between cultures grows and evolves. However, such a transition poses concern with individuals voicing rejection or harboring resentment towards a person(s) of an alternate species, which can escalate to acts of aggression. To prevent this, by expanding on the already-passed legislation incorporating extra-species people into the "human rights" acts, the Interspecies Protection Act is enacted to protect members of each species from being exposed to and/or victimized by violent racial discrimination. Also, due to the sensitivity the bill presents to the members of each species, all infringements to this act are treated and punished accordingly as an international diplomatic issue.

Under the Interspecies Protection Act, a human cannot intentionally harm an extra-species person, either physically, emotionally, psychologically, or financially.
 * Extra-species Immunity

Under the Interspecies Protection Act, an extra-species person cannot intentionally harm a human, either physically, emotionally, psychologically, or financially.
 * Human Immunity

To protect the program's participants, various rules have been formed. Chief amongst these is the rule that members of extra-species are forbidden to harm humans, whether it be physically, emotionally, psychologically or financially, and vice versa.
 * Interspecies Relationships

Another rule prevents sexual intercourse and marriage between species, with the punishment of imprisonment and/or deportation being enacted upon the participants. Note: An amendment to this rule, that allowed for interspecies marriage between individuals, is later experimented with using Kurusu Kimihito as the test subject of whether or not the amendment is viable.

Cultural Exchange Security Squad & M.O.N.
The Cultural Exchange Security Squad and Monster Ops: Neutralization (M.O.N.) are specialized combat squads assigned with the task of upholding the laws of the Cultural Exchange Program. Due to the rule forbidding humans from harming extra-species, and visa versa, the Cultural Exchange Security Squad (a squad consisting of solely human agents) is assigned to deal with humans while M.O.N. (a squad consisting solely of extra-species agents) is assigned to deal with members of extra-species.

Incidents these squads are involved in include but are not limited to; retrieval of wandering cultural exchange participants, rescue of kidnapped participants.

Private Security Company Talio & Extra-Species VIP BodyGuards
The Private Security Company Talio have a same goal as Cultural Exchange Security Squad or M.O.N. but with using different problem solving method. Unlike Cultural Exchange Security Squad or M.O.N. who specialized in both law enforcement and anti-terrorism, their main task is protection of requested VIP.

Trivia

 * Smith is a cultural exchange coordinator overseeing the humanoid species girls assigned to Kurusu Kimihito's household.
 * While it is true that humanoid species such as Cat-girls, Bunny-girls and Kobolds have integrated within human society without much fuss, species such as Arachne and Lamia, whose predator-based bodies cause fear amongst general humans, have a much harder time gaining trust and acceptance in the human population.
 * Certain financial costs accrued by residential households involved in the cultural exchange program are reimbursed by the government.
