| Message | too much for justice, they don't need any $ if internal affairs and defense do their jobs! And more $ for Environment and Head of State! The Young Zog's harem girls expected a raise given the recent electoral successes... |

| Message | Environment does not need alot of spending, and the head of state needs nothing except some money for travel and luxeries. Spending is fine here. |

| Message | I will support as this is a reasonable budget. However I do believe that until such a time as health care is privatised that funding should be increased. The cut in HoG spending is admirable. I would suggest that furhter cuts could be made to the last four "offices" and allocated to internal affairs and defence (choppers are expensive...). However, I do not want to dwell on the negative; this is a superb budget. |
| Date | 01:13:10, November 02, 2005 CET | From | Conservative Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of August 2133 |
| Message | At the present time we have a deficit, until we can get proper levels of funding in order, we must cut back on all levels, reorganise the economic system and then move forward with our proper spending plan. However as it stands we cannot afford the present budget, and this will service as a fine substitute until all taxation levels are set and growth is at managable levels. |
