Message | The Judiciary Branch of the CMP have advised a Party-wide opposition of this bill in the name of the defence of the right to privacy of the Solentian citizen. Every citizen has the basic right to have their privacy defending and this bill would show that this government is supporting the clear invasion of such privacy. - Shadow Lord Chancellor of Solentia: Gordon Miller |

Message | We fail to see how this is an invasion of privacy, and may i remind you this would only affect those CONVICTED of a crime, we already take finger prints and such. We feel that once you are convicted you lose all rights to privacy as a prisoner . |

Date | 20:00:23, May 18, 2008 CET | From | National Zeus Party | To | Debating the DNA Bill |

Date | 20:28:09, May 18, 2008 CET | From | Coalition for National Unity [CNU] | To | Debating the DNA Bill |
Message | The CMP shall not condone the stripping of the right to privacy of any citizen of this Solentian state. If other parties in this senate wish to deny citizens the right to stop the government from keeping such dangerous and confidential information on file, by all means, vote yes. A NO vote however will ensure that this sort of information is kept in the hands of the citizen and in the case where they wish, medical profressionals.
