| Message | The SSDP does not support Article 1. Again, it feels there are alternative means to obtain "vital" information. The Party also worries about the processes in place to determine what constitutes "vital" information, and what does not. The Party is willing to support every other proposal. Finn Jacob SSDP Chairman |
