| Message | I must vote no on this proposal. Currently, there is really no inbetween law in place regarding N/B/C weaponries and what is proposed here is extreme and the existing law is extreme as well. Striving to maintain a situation where we can keep a sensible middleground is integral. Should a reformed bill be proposed, or one that I take the initiative to write and sponsor comes up to voting, support would be evidential. FIP Ranking Senator Hugh Bure |

| Message | The defence of this nation is simply too large a price to pay for our leaders to do what is seen as "Peaceful". If another nation were, for whatever reason, to attack us utilising chemical, biologicl or nucleat warfare, it would be the hight of stupidity to deliberatly deny ourselves to right and opportunity to defend ourselves. The UPD votes a strong: no. |
