Bill: Transport Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: National Labor 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: September 2587
Description[?]:
Current legislation makes transport far too difficult. Whilst it is known that regular petrol cars cause pollution, hybrid cars do not. So, Malivia Left suggests we adopt a system where cars are only allowed if they are hybrid. Malivia Left does not believe it is fair that at present, cars are illegal, and the only mode of transport, public transport, is not free. |
Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The government's policy concerning private cars.
Old value:: Private cars are not allowed.
Current: Private cars are allowed, but people are encouraged to travel collective and tax incentives are provided for cars using environmentally friendly fuels.
Proposed: Only cars using environmentally friendly fuels are allowed.

Message | While we support Article One, we do not support article two. Any needless expenditures, however small, should not be encouraged. The state pays for those who cannot afford it, those who can must support themselves. |
Date | 11:33:43, June 04, 2008 CET | From | Silly Hats Party | To | Debating the Transport Act |
Message | While I support both articles, if it means that article one can pass, then I would prefer to drop article two for a later date. |
Date | 12:00:38, June 04, 2008 CET | From | National Labor Party | To | Debating the Transport Act |
Message | OOC: is it possible to remove certain articles from a proposal, or does an entirely new bill need to be made? IC: Malivia Left will definitely remove Article Two from this bill, if the other parties continue to show support for Article One. |
