Message | Again, we of the RLP must point out that funding leads to control. The private sector has done an excellent job in this area and is not in need of support. We must oppose |

Message | RLP: in such an area, an element of government control cannot be seen as in any way invasive or dangerous, even if that is what the funding leads to. Sport is not going to be politicised just because there is a bit of government input - if we banned private clubs it may be different. This is just a way to raise Likatonia's international sporting profile. |

Message | The AAP believes that it's libertarian constituents can be satisifed by the retention of private clubs, while only good can come from the addition of extra 'public' clubs. |

Random fact: Cultural Protocol bills must provide a real-life equivalent or short description for the ethnic groups, languages and religions contained in them, such that it would be easy for an unfamiliar player to understand (e.g. "Dundorfian = German"). Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
