| Message | The natural resources of a country, and its basic public serices, should be in public ownership. That way they can be made directly democratically accountable to the electorate. FBSP will support the bill. |
| Date | 20:25:28, September 13, 2005 CET | From |  Ducal Delegation | To | Debating the Energy Regulation Act 2110 |
| Message | Aldegar has some extremely hi-tech and efficient companies with great experience and expertise. Whilst we believe it is necessary, as at present, to regulate these companies to ensure they do not abuse their market position by over-charging people, we do not believe nationalisation is necessary or desirable. |
