| Date | 10:07:27, May 10, 2008 CET | From |  Free Democratic Party | To | Debating the Insurance Accountability Act |
| Message | Against Article 2. It's not for the legislature to pass sentence. Put them on trial by all means, but it is grossly unconstitutional to take such measures outside the proper judicial realm. |
| Date | 12:29:49, May 10, 2008 CET | From | New Socialist Alliance | To | Debating the Insurance Accountability Act |
| Message | Agree action should be taken but suggest nationalisation |
| Date | 19:15:33, May 10, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Union | To | Debating the Insurance Accountability Act |
| Message | Well Article 2 has been modified |
| Date | 20:36:35, May 10, 2008 CET | From | Free Democratic Party | To | Debating the Insurance Accountability Act |
| Message | Still against. It should be reworded as a petition for indictment. And nationalisation is entirely the wrong approach: we'd effectively be creaming off the proceeds of an illegal investment. |
| Date | 22:01:23, May 10, 2008 CET | From | Democratic Rationalists (PrCoa) | To | Debating the Insurance Accountability Act |
| Message | OOC: Have a small suspension of disbelief problem with the notion that TCI employs even 900,000 employees. That's a huge, huge employer that exceeds almost anything I can think of in real world terms. Otherwise, love the fact that you're finding ways to RP the Infrastructure and Transport Ministry. Good job. |
| Date | 22:02:59, May 10, 2008 CET | From | Democratic Rationalists (PrCoa) | To | Debating the Insurance Accountability Act |
| Message | Who made the decision to reinvest the money instead of refunding it to customers per the orders of Bill Fern? The Democratic Rationalists can't vote for this without some plank to ensure an appropriate level of accountability here. |
| Date | 02:16:21, May 11, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Union | To | Debating the Insurance Accountability Act |
| Message | OOC: If over 50% of the popular of D.C. work for the government... It has also been modified to a proper number, instead of just a random number. IC: Bill Fern, as transport minister, invested roughly 54M ALO, ROUGHLY, for their customers after recent customers leaving the company, reducing multiple jobs. Thus, Minister Fern decided to fund their rebate checks so the company wouldn't have to near itself in to debt. |
| Date | 12:37:35, May 11, 2008 CET | From | Free Democratic Party | To | Debating the Insurance Accountability Act |
| Message | This act now serves no purpose. |
| Date | 00:48:54, May 12, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Union | To | Debating the Insurance Accountability Act |
| Message | OOC: Well it actually never did |
