Bill: Transport Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Artanian Socialist Workers Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: March 2849
Description[?]:
| The state has a duty to ensure transport provision to its citizens. We do not understand how anyone can trust train provision to the private section. It is a daft notion to suggest that tracklines and rail freight can be privitised simultaneously. The only way this can be done is via regional monopolies, and this benefits no one. |
