| Message | Mr Speaker, this bill would be disastrous for the country. It will lead to high prices, poor quality products and a limited choice for the consumer. It is immoral to say the least, and suspect on intellectual grounds. |
| Date | 13:23:26, May 10, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the International Trade Act |
| Message | Prime Minister Mervyn Bijai, Mr Speaker, this Act will see us put Hutorian products and produce first. No longer could native Hutorian food etc, be undercut by importing from abroad. This Act would prove to the people how we put them above all others! |
