| Message | The following reasons have been presented as to why this Cabinet should be accepted by the Senate: 1. The Social Democrats wishes to keep their current ministers, while adding two more. 2. The Conservatives will continue to occupy the Premiership, as they have. They are also granted Foreign Affairs for their knowledge of foreign policy, in addition to retaining the seat of Defence. 3. In accordance with the Federal Independent Party's long tradition of being pro-labor, they are to keep the ministry of Trade and Industry, while also being granted Infrastructure and Transport and Justice. 4. The Unionists are to be granted two offices as well, to cement the majority and as a way to bring the Unionists closer together with the government following the resolution of the Protectorate Affair. |
