| Message | The UU party cannot in good faith support this bill since we believe in privileging the ethical advances offered through science and education above individual moral concerns; as it stands, we will oppose this bill. We do, however, believe that cloning should be a regulated activity so as to ensure cloning is performed for the benefit of science and our citizen's welfare en largesse and would therefore vote in favor of regulation of cloning. We suggest changing the propsal to reflect this. |

| Message | If enough of the other parties share the same line of thought, I shall be willing to compromise on the regulation issue. |

| Message | We can't agree to this proposal. This is not regulating cloning, but what you propose is banning it. |
| Date | 05:12:12, October 26, 2007 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the Cloning Reform |
| Message | The gut reaction of the SDP is to support this measure as we find human cloning both abhorrent and relatively frightening, but in the interest of seeing a restriction on cloning pass successfully we are not opposed to a modification of the bill that at the very least institutes a heavy regulation of cloning. |
