| Message | "The Department of Health opposes this Act as a matter of logic. Animals are incredibly important right across the world in dealing with the development of pharmecutical drugs and medicines. We would rather not risk any potential developments in the time-delay and bureaucracy of a heavy regulatory process." Xander Fraer (U-Sh) Secretary of State for Health and Social Services |

| Message | Animal testing has proved the be incredibly uneffective, the NUR should consider the rights of the animals not to go through painful medical testing as well as the gentle push towards better medical simulation. |

| Message | "Whilst the NUR would be perfectly willing to consider some basic regulation as a matter of formality, we are not willing to back such a heavy bureaucratic process as we feel it poses some considerable risk to pharmecutical and medical advance." Xander Fraer (U-Sh) Secretary of State for Health and Social Services |

| Random quote: The Wolfsheim Virus is not a real actual disease in the conventional medical sense of the term. Rather, it is a cluster of symptoms which are just part of the general socio-economic disease that is capitalism. The main symptoms the sufferers are experiencing are a direct result of capitalist poverty, as in malnutrition, poor housing and so on, combined with psycho-somatic symptoms which are a direct consequence of the contradictions and stresses which are inherent to the capitalist system. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
