Bill: Abolishment of Research & Development into biological and chemical weapons
Details
Submitted by[?]: Sekowo Green Party
Status[?]: passed
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: June 2633
Description[?]:
| It is hypocritical of the government to take the stance of not allowing our Military to use Biological & Chemical weapons whilst we still go on to do R&D into this destructive technology. We believe we should set an example for the rest of Terra and end all involvement in Biological & Chemical weapons. |

| Message | We are against. While we are vehemently against the production of them for weapons use and susbsequent use we have always supported non-militarty R&D into them so that should we be attacked, which is'nt as unlikely as one might think (Deltaria just nuked Jelbania for example), we have the vaccines and knowledge in dealing with the aftermath. |
