In the Fourth Congressional Council - Legislation Voting he have voted upon this matter:


CA 3.10:
4.5 Forming a House/Family

Once you have gained the rank of Quaestor and have been granted a Provincial Governorship, you will want to befriend a standing Praetor and create a family/or house. A house must consist of at least three members including the Quaestor. To form a house, you must be given a Praetors “sponsorship”, announce the name of the house and which region it hails from, and what it stands for. Have your sponsoring Praetor announce the fact that he is sponsoring your House/Family in the senate and then you can get creative. Explain what your House/Family will stand for politically, militarily, and economically.

A house will create huge advantages for the players in it. You will all be able to vote more powerfully during Congressional Sessions and also will be to place your members in better seats of power through your influence. Each house will have its own thread to discuss its own agenda.

(Confirmation with the dictator removed from rule 4.5)

The rule is the same, it only does not need the confirmation of the "Dictator" anymore.


And in the Fifth Congressional Council - Legislation Voting we decided this:

CA 5.2: That if there is no standing praetor to give sponsorship, a Quaestor may start a family/house with a voting by the senate.

A vote of the senate would be necessary. But however it is, you must be a Quaestor to form a house in any case.
