| Message | Allowing commercial companies to fish has clearly done damage to our fish stocks. They are being depleted, and nothing short of banning private commercial fishing is going to help. Production levels can be scaled back to an ecologically sustainable amount, as determined by the state owned corporation, Tukarali Fishing Co. The profits from this will go directly back into the government, providing additional funds to manage fish stocks. |

| Message | No, commerical fishing is not damaging our fish stocks as we have fishing quota's... We do not need a government monopoly on fish |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
