| Message | Mr. Speaker, We disagree with the sub-article insisting a 2/3 majority of the legislature is necessary in order to call a state of emergency. Ultimately, we believe this judgement call has to be taken by the government of the day. It also needs to be borne in mind that in a really dire situation, it might not be practicable to wait for a parliamentary vote until a state of emergency is enforced. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, I believe that whatever governments precede us they will understand if it is of the dire most circumstance, this can be circumvented. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, We fully support this bill. It is about time that the power to set curfews for no real reason is taken from our Governments. We are not a dictatorship. |
