| Message | We oppose - this government has no business in regulating working hours. Each business in Dranland has its own specific needs - thats the nature of different industries. What place is it of the governments to disrupt buinesses based on a unified conception of what constitutes appropriate working hours? This could be very detrimental to the economy. |

| Message | While we appreciate the concerns that brought about this proposal, we would prefer such matters be handled by local governments. Therefore, we oppose this bill. |
