Bill: Child Labor
Details
Submitted by[?]: Reformed Conservative Party of Lodamun
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: September 2644
Description[?]:
| The RCPL does not support sweatshops, or children working in factories. However, there are many positions that teenagers are capable of working in, and are currently being prevented from doing so in regards to our current laws. These positions are low-risk, highly safe, and often entry-level positions that will give valuable work experience to these soon-to-be-adults. We believe that these regulations can best be imposed by local governments. |
Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The government's policy concerning child labour.
Old value:: Child labour is forbidden.

Proposed: Child labour is regulated by local governments.

| Message | Our children are required to attend school. This isn't stopping learning in any way or form. Rather, it is offering them new opportunities to learn by DOING. |
| Date | 20:58:14, September 29, 2008 CET | From | The Liberal Party | To | Debating the Child Labor |
| Message | If this bill came with some regulations by the national government, we may consider voting in favor but in its current form, we oppose. |
| Date | 22:40:59, September 29, 2008 CET | From | United Republics Party | To | Debating the Child Labor |
| Message | If that's the case, the LP should propose: "Child labour is allowed, but with additional regulations to those of adult labourers." The URP might support that option, but reserves the right to oppose. |
