Bill: Dienstplicht / Military Service
Details
Submitted by[?]: Anti-Revolutionaire Volkspartij
Status[?]: defeated
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: February 2918
Description[?]:
| Door dit voorstel kan de overheid in tijd van nood de mannen oproepen bij rampen of calamiteiten, tot verdediging van het vaderland. Dat is een goede zaak. Het gevaar van een zuiver beroepsleger is, dat de krijgsmacht in een maatschappelijk isolement kan komen. Handhaving van de dienstplicht kan ertoe bijdragen dat ieder zich betrokken blijft weten bij de verdediging van vrede en vrijheid van volk en vaderland. Through this proposal, the government can, in times of emergency, call upon the people to help with disasters or emergencies, to defend the homeland. That's a good thing. The danger of a purely professional army is, that the armed forces can get in a social isolation. Maintaining the military service can help that every person involved keeps involved with maintaining the defense of peace and freedom of the people and the homeland. |
