| Date | 21:13:04, January 24, 2009 CET | From | Imperium Party | To | Debating the Child Benefits Act of 2701 |
| Message | The IP are against forms of devolution, believing in centralization and state & nationalized firms and organisations. The state guarantees benefit to low-income familes and the poor, why would the people want local governments to determine if they get benefit when they know the state gives them,. Veronica Zoratatt IP Leader |
| Date | 23:36:39, January 24, 2009 CET | From | National Equality Party | To | Debating the Child Benefits Act of 2701 |
| Message | We are in agreement with the IP. Too much devolving something like this is only going to cause problems. If the local government decides to cancel benefits, then what will the families who depended on it do? |
