Message | Currently we maintain a number of buildings across the nation for the unlikely event that we will be attacked. Of course it is necessary that we have such facility, but do we really need buildings specifically dedicated to it? If we have every building featuring some civil defence capabilities, we can save government money on maintaining these, and improve nationwide coverage. Everyone wins. |

Message | "No new buildings may be constructed unless they feature provisions for Civil Defence." Why on earth would we demand from everyone to build a nuclear bunker under their house or in their garden? This will only cost money. |
