| Message | We support. While many of our members (e.g. the Catholics) are against contraceptives, the CSP as a whole believes that this is a good and safe way to combat population spikes and sexually transmitted diseases. |
| Date | 00:08:45, November 15, 2005 CET | From | We Say So! Party | To | Debating the Contraception Act |
| Message | We agree with our right honourable colleagues and will support the reintroduction of this sensible, public health minded bill. |
| Date | 08:01:07, November 15, 2005 CET | From |  Liberal-Progressive Union | To | Debating the Contraception Act |
| Message | I must respectfully disagree with the statements of my two colleagues. We feel it is not the job of the government, but rather the responsibility of individual to purchase their own contraceptives. |

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
