| Date | 20:00:39, November 08, 2009 CET | From | National Democrats | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 2845 |
| Message | We wouldn't dare to question that any party was free to raise such a proposal, we only mean that we will not support it. |
| Date | 01:24:19, November 09, 2009 CET | From | Urban Party of Kirlawa | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 2845 |
| Message | Why do we need to raise the Defense budget. |
| Date | 03:00:53, November 09, 2009 CET | From | Kirlawan People's Justice Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 2845 |
| Message | Anyone is certainly welcome to suggest adjustments such as this to the budget. Our nay vote signifies merely that KPJP would rather not spend the money there at this time; we are not at all opposed to your suggesting it. |
| Date | 06:54:21, November 09, 2009 CET | From | Gluaiseacht Shaoráil DhaonlathachIt | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 2845 |

| Date | 11:08:42, November 09, 2009 CET | From | Artanian Socialist Workers Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 2845 |
| Message | @UP, we feel that the imminent passage of two defence related bills justifies a proposal to increase defence spending. |
