During his first year in office, Kellisyen's government expanded infrastructure projects around Lake Seketan by $250 million SKD, with the completion of Winneston Harbour Expansion being one such project. His government lowered the pension age to 66 as Seketan's energy sector grew by 12%, with government royalties refinancing into paying pensions. On social issues, Kellisyen attempted to reform language laws by lowing the threshold for a municipality to have a second official language. Despite passing with overwhelming support in the Commons Council, the National Conservatives and Wilsk Nationals, as well as Labour dissidents, were able to block it in the State Council. Kellisyen made state visits to Alquiya, Canada, Iceland, New Svealand, Alquiya, and the United Kingdom during his first year as well.

During his first year, Kellisyen also visited Alquiya, Canada, Iceland, New Svealand, Alquiya, and the United Kingdom.


Kellisyen's second year was largely taken up by the [[2018 Wilsk Sovereignty referendum]] and issues surrounding it. In late 2017 the [[Irvansky]] approved plans to hold a referendum on Wilsk sovereignty, presenting three options to Wilsk voters. These choices were;
The third year of Kellisyen's government was focused on infrastructure and Nelbec affairs. His government finalized the SK9 highway, stretching through southern Bynan and Fjeska, as well as oversaw planning for a light-rail system in Ciloven. Internationally his government signalled its intention to reopen the [[Ciloven Accord]], which would resolve the [[Trjebian Dispute]]. Despite support from the [[Legislative Assembly of Trjebia|Government of Trjebia]], Alquiya and the provincial governments of Southern Trjebia rebuked the invitation.
* Remain in Seketan under the current arrangement (Remain)
* Expand the autonomy of the "Independent State" whilst remaining under the Sovereignty of Seketan. (Autonomy)
* Complete independence from Seketan. (Independence)
This referendum put a strain on the coalition government, as historically the Socialists were staunchly against increasing provincial rights and favouring a centralized government, while the Labour Party leans towards provincial autonomy. The Socialist Party and Kellisyen campaigned for Remain, promising expanded funding for Wilsk projects & healthcare and increasing language rights for Wilsk speakers in the borderlands. During the campaign, Kellisyen was criticized for his poor Wilsk in speeches, with a leaked speech showing notes on how to pronounce words phonetically being mocked in the media, leading to one pro-independence journalist offering to "drive him to kindergarten with his kids. Despite the government split and campaign blunders, the Remain side won with 47% of the vote. In a speech on referendum night, Kellisyen vowed to "not forget Wilskland" despite the results.
