| Message | We will fight this bill until we die as we fought long and hard to ban smoking everywhere that people may be and only in peoples homes and in bars can they smoke. We would like to ban cigarettes as a whole as they are no good for anyone except the shareholders of tobacco companies. |
| Date | 17:25:55, February 25, 2007 CET | From | Iqembu Sokusebenzisana Yeningi | To | Debating the NCP's Smoking Regulations Bill |
| Message | MUP/PET supports. While cigarettes have certain health risks, they also have been proven to decrease the risk of other illnesses. The people of Ikradon are informed enough to make this decision for themselves, either on their own or in their local councils. |
| Date | 15:38:54, February 26, 2007 CET | From | Progressive Centrist Democrats | To | Debating the NCP's Smoking Regulations Bill |
| Message | we oppose. the risks of smoking outweight any positive effect and you don't only endanger yourself, which is your right, but also endanger non-smokers. that's why the CUI favors the status quo. |
