Bill: Minimum Wage Amendment Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Radical Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: June 2555
Description[?]:
| The state has no duty to provide regulations for workers. This is the task of recognised trade unions. By regulating wages, the government is playing a needless role in entrepreneurship, and will discourage small businesses from setting up and establishing themselves. We believe Minimum Wage should be abolished. - Kristian Donson - Leader of the Radical Party |
