| Message | Rt Hon Baroness Marelle, Prime Minister, Madam Speaker, the NSC believe a party should be able to operate it as how it sees. If that involves a military wing then so be it. These private security firms will ensure party safety and can - if desired - become a unit in the Hutorian Army. The NSC want a Hutori where a political party can operate how it wants to. |
| Date | 23:16:19, June 14, 2010 CET | From | Labour Party | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | Madam Speaker, The NSC say that they want "a Hutori where a political party can operate how it wants to". Does this mean the Minister of foreign affairs will allow armed groups within all parties? The Honorable Lady suggests that this will be acceptable for all parties, is this the case? |
| Date | 23:22:36, June 14, 2010 CET | From | Labour Party | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | Will The prime minister answer the question? Or has she been caught lying to the house? |
| Date | 23:24:23, June 14, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | Madam Speaker, if within reason, then yes. Parties importing weaponry that is unsuitable or exceed membership numbers will be closed. If the parties keep within the rules outlined in the Bill, then the NSC cannot see why not all parties cannot have a private security wing. |
| Date | 23:30:08, June 14, 2010 CET | From | Labour Party | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | So, if passed, this bill will allow the PRLM to have a 150,000 member paramilitary unit, with arms not exceeding the amount required? |
| Date | 23:32:14, June 14, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | Yes, if it stays within the law Madam Speaker. If it doesnt it will be disbanded immediatley. |
| Date | 23:36:55, June 14, 2010 CET | From | Labour Party | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | Madam Speaker, will the government insure that the laws are absolute and absolutely all parties are subject to the same rules? Will they insure that weapon suitability rules are the same for all parties? |
| Date | 23:41:02, June 14, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | Madam Speaker, naturally, but its unlikely that all parties will import the same weaponry. |
| Date | 00:05:01, June 15, 2010 CET | From | Labour Party | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | Madam Speaker, would it be possible to consult the minister of internal affairs before weapon importation on the suitability of weaponry? |
| Date | 00:08:16, June 15, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | Madam Speaker, the law states that all weapon importation has to be approved by the Minister of Internal Affairs. There is no possible about it, its a neccessary requirement of the process. We hope this answers the gentlemans question. |
| Date | 10:00:09, June 15, 2010 CET | From | Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM) | To | Debating the Repeal on Ban of Military Parties Act of 2953 |
| Message | Madam Speaker, yet another betrayal of the electorate. The people of this country never voted for private militaries. Given the NSC's radical socialism which has all but destroyed the private sector, how can they, with a straight face, now advocate private militaries?! Madam Speaker, it is incredible. If there is one area that should remain entirely within the control of the state, it is the provision of a military. That is the definition of statehood. OOC: If this is the beginning of some big civil war RP then just remember that all acts have to be approved by all parties involved. |
