| Message | The Parliament can function at better efficiency than it is currently when it has less members and then all its procedures are faster and the parliament members are of better quality. Milos Stajic RRP |

| Message | A lowering of the number of seats in Parliament would decrease the quality of representation in the Republic of Telamon. Less representatives means less power to the people of Telamon. We cannot endorse this legislation. Michael Garrish Chairman Democratic Capitalist Delegation |
| Date | 14:11:36, August 28, 2009 CET | From | Rightful Radical Party | To | Debating the Constitutional Reform - Parliament Seats Act (RRP) |
| Message | We disagree. Quality will be better, not worse. Seeing as we have the majority, the PPP being passive, we will propose this bill again and pass this much needed legislation. Milos Stajic RRP |
