| Message | I could agree with most of it, but it does seem a large jump for the Justice Dept... |
| Date | 21:00:54, September 09, 2009 CET | From | United Republics Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of February 2815 |
| Message | The spending on defense and police is way too high and could be shifted to fund infrastructure improvements or actually fund finance and environment departments at adequate levels. |
| Date | 22:26:07, September 09, 2009 CET | From | Radical Nationalist Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of February 2815 |
| Message | We would like to speed up the court system and also invest heavily into improving better prisons and rehabilitation including a massive push to crack down on crime. |
| Date | 23:59:50, September 09, 2009 CET | From | Country Liberal Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of February 2815 |
| Message | Whilst we commend the RNP for backing a tough stance on law and order, we must oppose such a radical budget increase, and urge better use of current funds. For example the head of state budget could quite easily be significantly reduced. |
| Date | 01:30:30, September 10, 2009 CET | From | United Republics Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of February 2815 |
| Message | What crime? The current budget for internal affairs is already bloated beyond belief. |
