| Message | The regulation of private establishments is necessary, especially in education, where things are so vital. The age of seventeen is good, because that guarantees a highschool education. The choice of university or no is left up to the individual, who is now an adult. 16 would be strange. Why be able to quit with only one year before the high school diploma? Might as well go all the way. |

| Message | We would vote for article two and three. |

| Message | USF, ooc: i think you are using the yankee education ages there, which i personally have no knowledge of, i didn't think Alduria was based on the US anyhow, so I guess our education may not follow theirs either. AM: We'll wait for a few more comments, if they take your line as well, then we will happily remove article 1 |

| Message | Same reserves that as usual. |
| Date | 17:35:04, November 23, 2005 CET | From | Market Socialist Party | To | Debating the Education Reform Bill |
| Message | Though we are against regulation, we believe that nurseries should be regulated. This is because children are too young to make wise consumption choices and the parents are away and can not see what really happens at the day care centre. |
