| Message | Post-secondary private institutions should be permitted, but must be strictly regulated to make sure that they follow our curriculum taught in other public institutions. The federal government should hand down the control of libraries to local governments, to run their own library systems, instead of running it from the State. The State would provide funding to operate these libraries. An alteration to the other proposed bill; if private school were to be allowed, they would have to be regulated to ensure the same material is being taught, with the same or better consistency. |
