| Message | We can't support this bill that will leave us defenseless. But what we can support is joining or creating a international treaty to ban the use, storage and cration of chemical, biological & nuclear weaponry |

| Message | Mr Speaker, We're in a similar position to the LLP: but would not support the inclusion of nuclear or non-lethal chemical weapons in such a non-use treaty. I yield the floor. |
| Date | 20:00:52, July 10, 2007 CET | From | Secular Party | To | Debating the Efficient Military Version 2 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, My party can support a treaty like that, however, the country has to get into the right positions before you can even apply for the treaty. So, consider this the first part towards that goal. I yield the floor. |
