Description[?]:
| As I have again been elected to the position, I have decided to take a more active role in Sekowo's politics. As my first Executive Order I request that the various heads of the cabinet ministries prepare a report explaining their spending with the amounts for all active projects. While I believe we need a well funded government, I also believe we need to make sure we're not just pumping money into what amounts to useless projects. Tn. Orihime Arisawa __________________________________________________________________________________ This bill shall be archived and used by the Ministry of Finance for relevant changes. |

| Message | Foreign Affairs -7 billion Environmental Protection for Lourenne -2 billion Protection of Southern Dovani -1 billion in payment and transport costs In all the current spending amount could stay the same, however we believe that cutting the environmental aid given to Lourenne to 4 billion and than adding that 3 billion to our Southern Dovani projects would be a good idea. Arya Patil Minister of Foreign Affairs |

| Message | Justice -3 billion in general upkeep, upkeep and vehicle/weapons purchases. -2 billion for special projects. As it stands we don't use themajority of our resources. I beleive that we could reduce the amount of moeny provided to the Ministry of Justice to 5 billion annually. Sadie Atkins Minister of Justice |

| Message | Education & Culture -10 billion all spending, not stable enough to list. -5 billion in museum and landmark upkeep and costs. In general our annual spending tends to be between 2 billion and 10 billion annually. Annually each Federal District is provided with 1 billion SEK for museums and other such cultural things. I believe that we could reduce the overall spending on the Education & Culture Ministry to 15 billion. Murasaki Shikibu Minister of Education & Culture |

| Message | Science & Technology -10 billion Sekowan Space Agency. -5 billion Nanotech & Biotech Research. -2 billion in Robotics Research. -2 billion Environmental Research. -1 billion all other research. As it stands we do not always have enough money to fund everything we would like, in fact we recently looked at starting some innovation prizes, to try to create a market for certain technologies to help further develop them, however we do not have enough money to do those kinds of things, and indeed have several projects on hold for financial reasons. In all a 10 billion increase to 30 billion annually would be very helpful. Sasuke Itokawa Minister of Science & Technology |

| Message | Infrastructure & Transport -Each District is given 2B to manage local infrastructure and roads. They seem to be able to put the money to good use, and are generally able to fund additional local projects with any excess beyond maintenance and basic upkeep. -An additional 5B is used for federal projects. Though there are some here who may be disgruntled at the cut, I would recommend reducing the amount spent on Infrastructure & Transport to 15 billion annually.

| Message | Can I make a complaint that you are all spending money on things I think my departments should be taking care of (as is stands, I have absolutly no clue what to spend Internal affairs on) |
| Date | 00:02:44, January 30, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Party | To | Debating the EO.00001.2523 |
| Message | To USMC: Internal Affairs handles law enforcement, emergency and disaster response, citizenship, immigration, issuing of passports, anti-terrorism and national security like protecting us law makers because we are oh-so important. =) |

| Message | Ja. No kidding. Just make a "budget" and then request more funding. The CP will support your push for more funding. |

| Message | Ohhh and my other complaint was shouldn't landmarks be tourism not education. |
| Date | 04:12:51, January 30, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Party | To | Debating the EO.00001.2523 |
| Message | No. Landmarks fall under Culture. Visits to landmarks fall under Tourism. They are two ministries that have to work together. Your ministry (internal) works a lot with the Ministry of Justice. e.g. you catch the bad guys, they put them away. Or they sue someone and you catch them. No ministry is totally independent. |

| Message | Technically Defence's budget is supposed to be split with 10 billion going to each of the three branches of the military. Air force, Army and DoD handle missile defence and such, and I've always figured that either Finances or internal affairs took care of veteran affairs. |

| Message | Money is needed to expand food supplies. A lot is lost due to corruption in the distribution to local governments an. Farm subsidesies are subpar. an estiminate 2 billion is lost due to local distrubution of subsidencies. Our Cabinet has little power over this. |
| Date | 19:18:57, January 30, 2008 CET | From | Normand Pluralist Party | To | Debating the EO.00001.2523 |
| Message | We wonder if it is at the local level that the corruption is to be found . . . |
| Date | 22:22:52, January 30, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Party | To | Debating the EO.00001.2523 |
| Message | I am formally making a request to the DSP, holder of the Tenno, to issue an executive order asking the Minister of Internal Affairs to conduct an investigation into finding the truth behind the Peasant Party of Sekowo's allegation that 2 B is lost at the local level due to corruption and NPP's counter-argument that it might not be only local, if at all. The inquiry committee should consists of at least one member of each party willing to participate. |

| Date | 23:50:09, January 30, 2008 CET | From | 帝国公明党 (Teikoku Kōmeitō) | To | Debating the EO.00001.2523 |
| Message | We agree to have the Ministry of Internal Affairs do so. Especially given the fact that roughly 30% of Sekowo's food crops are grown in the urban farm towers throughout our cities, the spending does seem excessive as well. |

| Message | Internal Affairs: 3 Billion Government Oversight Unit (GOU) 2 Billion Federal Investigation Unit (FIU) Econ and Tourism 8 Billion Clean Air and Water Programs 7 Billion National Park System Investigation into PPS's allegations. The GOU finds the PPS's allegations blown out of proportion. While government corruption does exist, the ammount lost to it is negligable. Most corruption was located in human resources rather then distribution anyway. We reccomend a stern rebuke for this first investigation. |
